Otoplasty, also known as ear pinning surgery, is a surgical procedure performed to correct the shape and position of the ears. Prominent ears, commonly referred to as 'bat ears' or 'protruding ears,' occur when the ears stick out more than normal from the side of the head. This condition can affect a person's self-confidence and cause social discomfort.


During otoplasty, the cartilage of the ear is reshaped to bring the ears closer to the head. Typically, the surgery is performed through an incision behind the ear, so any scarring is hidden. During the procedure, the cartilage may be weakened, excess tissue may be removed, or the ear may be pinned back to a closer position.


Otoplasty is often performed in childhood because the ears are more malleable and surgery results are more pronounced as the child grows. However, adults can also undergo this surgery. The procedure is usually performed under local anesthesia and takes a few hours.


During the recovery process, the ears are typically wrapped in a bandage for several weeks, and individuals are advised to avoid sports or heavy physical activities. Once the healing is complete, the person's ears will have a more natural appearance, and the prominent ear appearance will be corrected.
