The Procedure

Most ear re-shaping operations are performed under general anaesthetic, or local anaesthetic. An incision is made behind the ear in the fold where the ear meets your head. Cartilage and skin is usually removed or pinned back with a few fine stitches.

How long does it take?

Surgery takes around 1 hour.
