Procedure Information |
Ear Repositioning (Otoplasty) is a surgical procedure that is usually performed to move the ears into a more natural looking position closer to the head. What does the surgery involve? During the operation, the surgeon will adjust the shape of the ear cartilage to allow it to fold back into a more usual position. Surgery is carried out through an incision (cut) hidden in the fold on the back of the ear. Once corrected, this incision is stitched together and a rather bulky bandage is put around your head. Otoplasty can be performed using either a general anaesthetic or a local anaesthetic and takes between one to two hours to perform. Providing all is well, you can expect to go home the same day. What are the risks and side effects of surgery? Text overlaid on man giving presentation: attend one of our free upcoming cosmetic surgery open events Complications are infrequent and usually minor. However, no surgery is without risk. Blood can collect beneath the skin of the ear. This may need to be drained. Infection in the ears can occur although it is rare. Scars can become thick and red which may need further treatment. Unpredictable results are possible (uncommon). Cartilage is a living tissue and it may alter its shape over time. Very occasionally, a second operation may be required to refine your results. It is also possible that the ear can return to its pre-surgery position. This, however, is rare. When the dressings come off, your ears may look red or bruised for a while. However, the new shape should be fairly clear to see. |

I brought a friend who has a massive fear of needles. He needed blood tests. The nurses concerned were amazing. They were so lovely and patient with him. He really wasn’t going to go through with it he was that scared but their kindness and patience were above and beyond. He was highly delighted that he was able to overcome his fear and it is all down to these two wonderful human beings. |

Quality of care, friendliness and helpfulness of staff was absolutely second to none. Nothing was too much trouble. Staff at all levels were incredibly professional and helpful. Slight hiccup in the discharge procedure but this was down to poor communication of just one person, it was no way a reflection on anyone else. Even though i was fortunate enough to be treated at Nuffield Leicester on the NHS, I can honestly say the level of care I received was no less than someone who is paying privately. I would highly recommend this hospital to anyone and anyone who is pending NHS treatment here should not be worried at all, you will be well looked after indeed. A wonderful, friendly team of people who do a terrific job. Original Comment Report... |
