Otoplasty, also known as ‘Pinnaplasty’ or
‘Bat Ear Correction’, is quite simply a procedure used to
rectify over prominent, or ‘sticking out ears’.
Around 2 percent of the population feel their ears
stick out too much. Individuals that fall into this category may have
endured teasing or be self conscious about the prominent appearance of
their ears.
Otoplasty is a procedure developed to remedy this situation,
by adjusting the shape of the cartilage of the ear, this allows folds to
be created that cause the ear to lie closer to the side of the head.

any surgical procedure; we advise that the only reliable way to ensure
you fully understand the benefits and risks of any surgical procedure is
to have a full and confidential consultation with a specialist surgeon.
