Real Dr. Totonchi Patient, Before & After Otoplasty *
Otoplasty: this surgery is done in outpatient bases, each side takes about 45 minutes to one hour. Patients go home the same day, this surgery can be easily performed in combination with other procedures. After surgery, Dr. Totonchi recommends a head wrap or headband up to 4 week, especially in children. Regular activities can be resumed as soon as the effects of the anesthesia has worn off. An otoplasty procedure is a very safe and effective treatment for patients and can help achieve dramatic and very promising changes in appearance and confidence.
Ear reconstruction: This type of surgery is more appropriate for the patients who have totally or partially missing ear. Dr. Totonchi’s preferred method is to use cartilage graft from patient’s chest to reconstruct the ear framework. Reconstruction is performed in multiple stages (usually 3-5), after first stage patients stay in the hospital for 2-4 days, other stages are in and out procedures. The best time for the surgery is 6-9 years of age, and the entire process may take up to one year to complete ear reconstruction.
Whether you’re seeking to correct prominent ears, repair damage from an injury, or address a congenital ear difference, otoplasty and ear reconstruction can provide life-changing improvements in both appearance and confidence. Dr. Ali Totonchi combines advanced reconstructive techniques with an artistic approach to create natural-looking, balanced results tailored to each patient’s unique anatomy and goals.
