I’m planning to have an otoplasty, but I would also like to reduce the size of my earlobes. Can these be done at the same time?

Otoplasty and earlobes correction are performed under local anesthesia. During the operation the ear tissues "swell" due to the local anesthetic and therefore the angle of the ear lobe changes slightly. Simultaneous otoplasty and earlobe correction is possible. However, it is advisable to perform earlobe correction as a second stage after otoplasty, once the healing and scarring occur. The degree of the necessary earlobe correction is better determined 6-8 months after otoplasty. Performing separate operations guarantees a better result.
