Can You Reverse Otoplasty?

So what is reverse otoplasty and how does it differ from regular otoplasty? Well, it is – as the term sounds – just the reverse of what is done with ear pinning. So instead of bringing the ear closer to the side of the head, reverse otoplasty is accomplished by repositioning the ear so it sticks out farther.

Is otoplasty reversible?

Besides, it is a reversible technique, if the surgeon not satisfied with the result of the surgery can either redo the procedure or revert to CST. Percutaneous adjustable closed otoplasty does not cause serious complications, contour deformities, hematoma, or incision scars.

Is otoplasty permanent?

IS OTOPLASTY SURGERY PERMANENT? Yes, results are permanent. Rarely, revisions may be needed, but they are done under local anesthesia, and are minor.
