About Male Otoplasty (Prominent Ear Correction) Treatment
Some men are born with ears that protrude more than average or develop ear prominence over time due to changes in cartilage. Otoplasty corrects this by reshaping the ear cartilage and repositioning the ears closer to the head.
At your consultation, your surgeon will assess your ear anatomy and discuss your goals to design a personalised approach that enhances the ears in proportion to the rest of your face — emphasising natural results rather than an artificial appearance.

"I got Otoplasty surgery in Manchester with SC. The surgeon and nurses were really good, the nurses spoke to me during the surgery which helped a lot as it distracts you from the noises etc. My whole experience has been really good, the aftercare team have been really helpful. They get back to you within a few hours. Fantastic team and service all round"

Male Otoplasty (Prominent Ear Correction) FAQ
What should I expect postoperatively?
Commonly there is little pain or bruising involved. It takes one to two weeks for most of the swelling to subside, although the area may be sensitive for three weeks. The pressure dressing is removed after five to seven days. Ears may feel numb for the first two to three months after the surgery, and the sensation will return slowly with time.
Where are the incisions made for otoplasty?
The incisions are hidden behind the ear.
Will I have scars after undergoing otoplasty?
Every surgery results in some level of scarring but, since the incisions for otoplasty are behind the ear, it tends to be hidden.
