You may have been born with misshapen or protruding ears, or perhaps you’ve had an injury. No matter your experience, our plastic surgeons offer procedures to:
- Change ear size and shape
- Make ears lie flatter against the head
- Give ears better symmetry
At Lehigh Valley Institute for Surgical Excellence, part of Lehigh Valley Health Network (LVHN), our team is dedicated to helping you feel better about your appearance.
Benefits of ear surgery or otoplasty
Ear surgery is a purely cosmetic procedure. It doesn’t affect hearing. Ear surgery can:
- Alter the size and shape of ears
- Give ears a more natural-looking appearance
- Diminish protruding ears
- Make ears more symmetrical
