SPANN SPECIFICS

Ear surgery, also known as Otoplasty, surgically reshapes and repositions the ears so they fit better with the natural contour of the face. This procedure addresses and corrects ears that are too large or protrude outward. If you are an adult seeking more proportionate ears, ear pinning surgery with Las Vegas plastic surgeon, Dr. Marvin Spann, will address lifelong concerns about your appearance and facial balance. If you are the concerned parent of a child who has been teased or bullied due to prominent ears, this surgery can be performed on children as early as the age of 5, when a child’s ears reach full size. Otoplasty gives individuals the confidence and freedom to show their entire face from every angle without anxiety about their ears. Dr. Marvin Spann will address all of your questions during your consultation; we look forward to hearing from you!

TORN EARLOBE

Dr. Marvin Spann also performs ear surgery to correct a torn earlobe, or one that has suffered trauma. This is accomplished by removing the skin cleft that resides between the two sides that are split. A new lobe is reconstructed using sutures that are placed in both the front and back of the ear. Sometimes, a graft may be considered if there is not enough tissue. The stiches will remain in place for 3-4 weeks as the skin and cartilage takes time to reform. The sutures are usually removed in several phases to ensure that the lobe is strong and aesthetically appealing.

SURGICAL TECHNIQUE

The technique used during ear surgery will depend on the abnormality. First, there may be an insufficient amount of ear cartilage to support the fold of the ear, or too much cartilage where the ear canal starts. Both issues will cause the ear to protrude outward. In some cases, the ears may appear too large. Regardless of the condition, the cartilage will usually be addressed and either removed or reshaped. Then, the cartilage will be secured with sutures into a new position closer to the head. The incision is generally placed within the natural folds of the ear so scarring is not an issue.

DURING/AFTER SURGERY

All Otoplasties are performed under general anesthesia as an outpatient procedure in an accredited surgical facility. The entire surgery typically takes about 2 hours to complete. After surgery, patients will be sent home with their heads wrapped in a compression bandage, which will later be replaced with lighter bandaging. Initially, patients will feel discomfort if they attempt to move their ears. This will subside in a few days. Younger patients will need to be monitored so they do not touch or play with their ears during the healing process.

EXPECTED COST

The average cost for an Otoplasty will vary depending on the complexity of the surgical case. However, the national average for this surgery ranges between $1,500-$5,500. Unfortunately, in almost all cases, Otoplasty is considered a cosmetic procedure and therefore is not covered by insurance.

Ear Surgery FAQS

PERMANENT RESULTS?

The results following an Otoplasty procedure are long lasting. However, just like any other cosmetic procedure, aging and gravity may cause increased laxity. This could eventually affect the position of the ears. For the most part, the improvements made with this surgery are still significant.

IDEAL AGE?

Children between the ages of 4-6 are considered within the ideal range for this surgery. From an anatomical standpoint, the cartilage is still soft and will be easier to remold and manipulate. From a psychological standpoint, having this surgery before starting elementary school can help avoid teasing and ridicule from classmates.

BOTH EARS OR JUST ONE?

In the majority of cases, both ears are affected. Therefore, surgery is performed on both ears. However, there may sometimes be an abnormality in just one ear. If this is the case, surgery will be performed on the affected ear, which will be made to match the opposing ear.
