Ear Surgery

Diva Plastic Surgery Ear Surgery — what is it?

completing a harmonious ear that corrects the balance of the face shape and features, and
It is surgery that helps improve even the functional aspects.

Just as there are ideal proportions and shapes for the eyes and nose, so there are aesthetic standards for the ear The golden ratiostandards exist.

Based on continuous research and long clinical experience, we identify the eleven criteria that define a beautiful ear and
Whatever the ear shape — prominent ear, knife ear, cryptotia, cleft earlobe — we carry out the surgery appropriate to the case and improve it into a harmonious ear.

What are the standards for an ideal ear?

  • A diagram with pink measurement lines over the left profile of a woman — eye angle 8–10°, H modify 7 cm

    CHAPTER 01

    ideal Ear length

    When the face is seen from the side, the ear should lie at an angle of 8–10°
    should slope backwards by about that much, and as for ear length
    5.5–6 cm for women and 7 cm for men is ideal.

  • A diagram illustration of the ear on an apricot background — labelled with the helix and Y-shaped cartilage, with proportions of 4 wide by 7 tall

    CHAPTER 02

    ideal Ear proportions

    When the face is seen from the front, the line of the helix and
    it is good for the antihelix to be visible, and the horizontal and
    a vertical-to-horizontal ratio of about 4:7 is ideal.

  • A diagram marking the positions of the left and right ears with white dotted ovals on a photo of the back of a woman's head with tied-up hair, seen from the front

    CHAPTER 03

    ideal Ear position

    When the face is seen from the front, the line of the helix
    with the topmost part around the eyelid area and the lowest part of the earlobe
    the lowest part around the tip of the nose
    is the most ideal.

Diva Plastic Surgery Ear Surgery Who the surgery is for

Diva Plastic Surgery Ear Surgery Types of surgery

  1. An illustration of a prominent ear spread widely forwards and standing far from the head

    Prominent ear surgery

    An ear with no folds in the ear cartilage, simply flat and long

    With a normal ear, the side shape of the ear is usually slightly visible from the front, but
    With this kind of prominent ear, seen from the front the degree of protrusion is severe and it extends far upwards.

    Surgical method The spread cartilage is folded back to a normal angle and corrected; in severe cases the surgery is carried out with the incisional method.
    Whether or not an incision is made, there is no worry about scarring and the recovery period is short.

  2. An illustration of a cryptotia ear whose upper part is buried in the scalp so that only half its outline shows

    Cryptotia surgery

    an ear that looks completely buried

    Not only is the shape of the ear barely visible when the face is seen from the front, but even from the side the upper part of the ear
    is bent backwards so that the ear looks buried. This kind of ear presents not only an appearance problem but
    can also affect hearing, so correction is needed.

    Surgical method It is corrected using a specially shaped advancement flap on the upper part of the ear.
    In severe cases skin grafting is also carried out.

  3. An illustration of a folded ear in which the cartilage at the top of the ear is folded forward and crumpled

    Folded ear surgery

    An ear whose upper part looks crumpled because of a developmental disorder of the upper ear cartilage

    It often occurs in the upper third of the ear, but cases where the deformity reaches the middle are not rare either.
    It occurs in varying degrees, from crumpled to mild to severe.

    Surgical method For mild deformity the ear cartilage is fully exposed and the crumpled cartilage is
    is trimmed into shape and the skin is then laid back over it; in severe cases a more complex technique
    is required, and we carry out the necessary surgical method.

  4. An illustration of a knife ear with no lobe, dropping in a straight line from the middle of the ear downwards

    Knife ear surgery

    An ear with no lobe that runs in a straight line from the middle down to the end

    It was often corrected in the past because it was said to bring no fortune, and today too, because it stands out in the shape of the ear,
    Many people think a visible earlobe makes a good ear, so most want it resolved.

    Surgical method The front and back of the earlobe are incised a little at a time, then the flesh at the back is pulled upwards to create a lobe.
    Three to four months after surgery the scar is barely noticeable.

  5. An illustration of a cleft earlobe with the lower part of the lobe split vertically

    Cleft earlobe surgery

    congenital cases, and acquired ones caused by trauma such as wearing earrings

    Heavy earrings can gradually tear the earlobe, or earrings can arouse babies' curiosity so that
    children can pull them and tear the lobe, and damage to the lobe can also occur on a crowded bus or subway.

    Surgical method Where there is enough tissue, the split area can be restored by a relatively simple method, but
    Where there is not enough tissue, we carry out the surgery using the earlobe and the fatty tissue around it.

Diva Plastic Surgery Ear Surgery Precautions after surgery

  • After surgery, follow the clinic's guidance and use the cold and warm compresses needed to reduce swelling.
  • You will not feel much pain after surgery, but for 2–3 days you must avoid any impact to the surgical site from overexertion.
  • From about 2–3 days after the stitches come out, the swelling at the surgical site goes down quickly and you can see the natural shape of the ear.
  • The final result of the surgery appears only after more than six months have passed.

After all surgeries and procedures, side effects such as inflammation, bleeding, and infection may occur depending on the individual, so caution is required.
