Otoplasty (Ear Pinning)

This female underwent otoplasty, also known as ear pinning surgery, to improve the appearance and proportion of her ears in relation to her face. She was concerned about the prominence of her ears and desired a more balanced, natural-looking appearance. During her consultation, Dr. Basile evaluated the shape, size, position, and symmetry of her ears and developed an individualized surgical plan based on her facial proportions and aesthetic goals. The procedure focused on carefully reshaping and repositioning the ears while maintaining a natural contour. Otoplasty is a cosmetic procedure designed to correct prominent or protruding ears by modifying the ear cartilage and positioning the ears closer to the head. It can help improve facial balance and ear symmetry while creating a subtle, natural result. For this patient, the goal was not to create a dramatically different appearance, but rather to achieve a refined result that complemented her existing facial features.
