Otoplasty (Ear Surgery)

The Roxbury Approach to Otoplasty

Your ear surgery is 100% customized to fit your unique needs. During your consultation, we assess how your ears relate to the rest of your facial features to compose a custom treatment plan. Our surgeons focus on creating more discreet and attractive ears that blend in naturally, rather than looking "pinned" or artificial.

We take special care to ensure that the ears are set back symmetrically and the new contours are smooth and even. Whether we are reshaping the cartilage, removing excess skin, or reducing large earlobes, our goal is to create a final outcome that restores balance and harmony to your face.

What This Procedure Achieves

  • Repositioning: Sets protruding ears closer to the head ("ear pinning").
  • Reshaping: Corrects overly large, misshapen, or "shell" ears.
  • Symmetry: Restores balance to asymmetrical ears.
  • Lobe Correction: Reduces and sculpts earlobes that are too large or stretched.
  • Confidence: Relieves social anxiety and embarrassment caused by ear appearance.
