Ear Surgery in Seoul

What Is Ear Surgery?

Ear surgery—commonly called otoplasty—reshapes the ear’s cartilage and soft tissue to correct protrusion, asymmetry, or deformities. It can also repair earlobes, reduce ear size, or refine overall ear contours for a more harmonious appearance.

Common Types of Ear Surgery in Seoul

• Otoplasty (Ear Pinning): Repositions protruding ears closer to the head.
• Earlobe Repair: Treats tears, stretched piercings, or sagging lobes.
• Ear Reduction: Reduces overly large or wide ears for improved balance.
• Cartilage Reshaping: Smooths irregular shapes or folds for a cleaner contour.
• Revision Ear Surgery: Corrects issues from previous procedures.

Who Is a Good Candidate?

• Uneven or asymmetrical ears
• Stretched or torn earlobes
• Large or elongated ears

What to Expect

Ear surgery usually takes 1–2 hours with local anesthesia or sedation. A soft dressing may be applied for a short period, and most patients return to normal routines within a few days. Swelling gradually fades over the following weeks as the ears settle into their new position.
