Overview


Otoplasty in West Palm Beach

Otoplasty corrects prominent or misshapen ears — setting them closer to the head or reshaping the ear structure to create a natural, balanced appearance. One of the most confidence-restoring procedures in cosmetic surgery.

Dr. Kapp reshapes and repositions the ear cartilage through incisions hidden behind the ear. The result is ears that lie in natural proportion to the face and head. Otoplasty is safe for both adults and children (typically after age five when the ear is fully formed).

Am I a Candidate?


Adults and children (5+) with prominent, asymmetric, or misshaped ears who are bothered by their appearance. Good candidates are healthy, non-smokers with realistic expectations.

The Procedure


Performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia in one to two hours. Incisions are placed behind the ear, where they heal virtually invisibly.

Recovery & Results


A headband is worn for the first week to protect the ears. Most patients return to school or work within one week. Strenuous activity is avoided for one month.
