Ear Surgery
Ear Surgery – Perfectly Balanced Ears, Perfectly Framed Face
For many individuals, the ears are more than just a hearing tool—they frame the face, define symmetry, and impact first impressions. In India, a 2024 report by the Indian Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons revealed a 28% rise in otoplasty procedures over the past three years, particularly among young adults and adolescents facing social anxiety due to prominent or misshapen ears.
Whether it’s ears that stick out, asymmetrical lobes, or injury-related deformities, ear reshaping surgery in Mumbai offers a life-changing solution. At Jewel Aesthetic Centre, Dr. Devayani Barve-Venkat provides expert care to correct ear structure, restore facial harmony, and most importantly—rebuild confidence.
What Is Ear Surgery (Otoplasty)?
Ear surgery, also known as otoplasty, is a cosmetic procedure designed to reshape, reposition, or reduce the size of the ears. It’s often performed to correct overly prominent ears, asymmetry, deformities from birth, or trauma-related issues.
Common Concerns That Otoplasty Addresses
– Prominent or protruding ears
– Ears that are misshapen or folded abnormally
– Ear size disproportionate to the head
– Injuries or torn earlobes
– Congenital deformities (microtia, lop ear, etc.)

- You’re over 6 years old (after ear cartilage matures)

The Procedure: What to Expect

These combinations enhance overall facial balance.
