Otoplasty St. Louis
Kids born with large ears or ears which stick out far from the sides of the head can be the root of ruthless teasing, especially among peers and kids. Boys and girls through adolescence and on up through adulthood can suffer from feeling low self-esteem due to the appearance of their ears. Dr. Cabbabe has helped countless children and adults alike improve the appearance of their prominent ears through Otoplasty, also known as Ear Surgery.
Otoplasty can improve ears by repositioning them closer to the side of the head or even removing or re-shaping the ear cartilag to create a smaller, more symmetrical or proportionate ears. Generally, this procedure is safe to be performed on kids as young as 4 years old and up and usually takes about 3 hours to complete. Incisions can be easily hidden behind the ear so that patients are left with no visible scars.
