“Small changes can make a big difference in how you feel.”
Prominent or asymmetrical ears can cause self-consciousness from childhood through adulthood. Otoplasty (ear reshaping surgery) in Dubai corrects ear position, shape, or size for a balanced, natural appearance. SurgeryDubai connects you with SafePlast-certified specialists who perform otoplasty with precision and care.
Ear pinning (setback otoplasty) repositions prominent ears closer to the head using cartilage scoring and sutures. Ear reduction removes excess cartilage for overly large ears. Ear augmentation uses cartilage grafts for underdeveloped ears. Reconstruction addresses congenital deformities or trauma. Your surgeon selects the technique based on your specific concern.
Ears positioned at the natural angle and distance from the head.
Incisions placed behind the ear in the natural crease — virtually invisible.
Cartilage reshaping is permanent. Results last a lifetime.
Wear your hair up, try new hairstyles — without self-consciousness.
Otoplasty is performed under local anesthesia with sedation (adults) or general anesthesia (children). Incisions are made behind the ear in the natural crease. The cartilage is reshaped, folded, or sutured to bring the ears closer to the head. Permanent internal sutures hold the new position. The procedure takes 1–2 hours for both ears.
Days 1–3: Protective headband worn continuously. Mild discomfort and swelling.
Days 4–14: Headband worn at night. Sutures removed or dissolving. Most swelling gone.
Weeks 3–6: Return to all activities. Avoid contact sports for 6 weeks.
Weeks 6–12: Final shape settled. Headband no longer needed.
Performed under local anesthesia with sedation (adults) or general anesthesia (children). An incision is made behind the ear. The cartilage is reshaped using scoring, folding, or trimming techniques, then secured with permanent sutures to hold the new position. The incision is closed with fine sutures. The procedure takes 1–2 hours.
Ear cartilage is mostly developed by age 5–6, so otoplasty can be performed on children from this age. Adults of any age can also have the procedure. There's no upper age limit.

Most patients describe the discomfort as mild to moderate — a dull ache for a few days easily managed with pain medication. Children often recover faster than adults.
Yes. Torn or stretched earlobes from heavy earrings or gauges can be repaired with a simple in-office procedure under local anesthesia. Healing takes 6–8 weeks before re-piercing.
