A cosmetic procedure called otoplasty is done to correct ears that are excessively prominent or have other unpleasant shape characteristics. The procedure is a little intrusive, and the results show up right away.

Its cost in the UK and other European nations might be costly because it is a cosmetic operation that is not covered by the NHS or health insurance. As a result, many patients opt to travel to Turkey for cosmetic surgery since the quality there is comparable to or even better than that found in the West while yet being quite reasonable.

What is Ear Correction (Otoplasty)?

The patient’s outer ears, sometimes referred to as the pinnae (plural “pinna”), can be reshaped with ear pinning, a kind of cosmetic surgery. The procedure can move the pinna closer to the face, reduce their protrusion, and repair minor cartilage abnormalities.

The doctor will select one of various otoplasty varieties to help the patient’s ears seem more balanced and harmonious with their facial profile. Each and every pinna repair follows the same fundamental procedure.

Their primary differences are their sizes and whether they are carried out symmetrically. Because of this, no matter what kind of therapy you require, the preparation is the same.

Cost of Ear Correction in Turkey

Otoplasty cost in Turkey is already extremely reasonable and won’t break the bank, despite the fact that cosmetic procedures are not covered by health insurance. Plastic surgeons who are trained and knowledgeable administer the procedure in the same manner as in the West. At Vivimedi, an otoplasty typically costs €2,000.

Who is Eligible for Otoplasty

Reasonable expectations of what a pinna repair procedure may accomplish and being older than five are the primary requirements. Otherwise, the criteria are modest given that the therapy is not particularly intrusive. The older patient shouldn’t have any significant health issues. Before going to bed, the patients should be ready to put on a compression headband. Prior to their full recovery from the treatment, it will shield their ears from motion as they sleep. Life-threatening illnesses preclude patients from receiving any kind of aesthetic surgery.

What is the best age for an otoplasty?

As soon as the ears are completely grown, otoplasty can be done. The majority of people may have ear surgery as soon as they reach five. Patients between the ages of five and seven often get these therapies. However, this does not imply that there is an ideal age for having this procedure. It may be performed without any difficulties on any healthy patient older than five.

Types of Otoplasty

Incisionless Otoplasty

This type is the least invasive otoplasty. It is not appropriate for individuals whose ears are highly prominent or asymmetrical since it is utilized to make small adjustments to the pinna structure. Additionally, significant malformations cannot be treated with it. However, because there are no incisions made during this treatment, there is no need for a rigorous aftercare regimen and the recovery period is short.

Lop-Ear Otoplasty

A LOP ear, otherwise known as “bat ears” refers to the appearance of very prominent ears. Many patients don’t notice or feel self-conscious about their ears until they are beyond the age of 5 and some people may not notice the prominence of their ears until they are adults. Patients who have this deformity have the upper part of their pinna fold inwards, making the ear appear smaller than it is or protruding.

One Ear Otoplasty

A single otoplasty is done to correct asymmetry. To make one pinna more resemblant of the other in shape, it is done on one pinna. As it takes half as long, this is one of the less costly otoplasties.

Risks

The main risk of an otoplasty is having what is called a hematoma post operatively. This is where there is a blood clot which forms under the skin after otoplasty. You would know this is the case if your pain increases dramatically post operatively. The other main risk of the operation is an infection however this is relatively rare due to the antibiotics which are given post operatively.

Realistic goals of an otoplasty

The goal of an otoplasty is to have ears which are less prominent. This will usually lead to having an improved self-esteem or being able to have a haircut which doesn’t cover the ears. It is important to understand that the left and right ear are not the same size prior to the operation and there may be some difference between the ears post operatively, however to the casual observer this will be minimal. Achieving perfectly symmetrical ears is not a realistic goal of the operation. Having said that, an otoplasty is a highly successful operation with excellent results with the combined approach Doctors at Vivmedi  use.

Endoscopic Brow Lift

The least invasive brow lift procedure is an endoscopic one. Endoscopes, instruments with cameras built in, are used to provide the therapy. They enable the surgeon to use the data from the cameras to do the brow lift surgery with extremely little incisions. This procedure is quicker to heal from and does not leave a noticeable scar.

Classical Brow Lift

A coronal incision must be made into the patient’s scalp in order to perform a traditional brow lift. It produces a more pronounced appearance yet conceals a scar within the patient’s hair. Since it is the most invasive type of eyebrow lift, it is rarely frequently performed since a less invasive variety may typically produce the same results.

Lateral Eyebrow Lift – Temporal Brow Lift

A lateral brow lift is performed through a single, somewhat bigger incision and is comparable to an endoscopic one. This kind of brow lift surgery has a quick recovery time and no obvious scars.

How is Brow Lift Surgery Performed in Turkey?

All forms of brow lifts are performed using the same technique. The incisions that are utilized to tighten the skin are created differently in each of them.

Anesthesia is applied as the initial step in every brow lift procedure. Local anesthetic is often employed, however various forms may be used depending on the circumstances.

The surgeon will make the incisions after administering the anaesthetic. They will be tiny in an endoscopic technique, just big enough to fit the endoscopes. For the traditional lift, a coronal incision from ear to ear is necessary.

The extra tissue is then removed, and the surgeon utilizes the incisions to tighten and raise the skin over the forehead and brows. The incisions are closed once the appropriate tightening degree has been reached. Typically, the surgeon will employ non-removable absorbable sutures.

Brow Lift Results and Recovery

After the wounds are healed and the swelling goes down, the benefits of the brow lift in Turkey will be visible. The endoscopic and lateral lifts will take roughly a week to complete. The traditional brow lift will take longer to recover.

To hasten the healing process, the patient should adhere to the doctor’s advice in the meantime. After the procedure, the patient can call it a day and recuperate. Before the incisions heal, the patient should refrain from touching their forehead. After the procedure, they will be able to wash their hair a few days later. After therapy, it is advised to stay away from physically demanding activities.
