Facial attributes play a significant role in determining one’s appearance, and among them, the ears tend to capture notable attention.

Otoplasty is a frequently performed procedure aimed at rectifying the positioning of ears that significantly protrude from the sides of the head. Enhance your appearance and boost your confidence by getting otoplasty surgery today!

THE PROCEDURE

What It Is

Otoplasty, also known as ear surgery, is a procedure that can correct misshapen or protruding ears. It improves the shape, position, and proportion, addressing defects present at birth or those that become apparent over time. Otoplasty can also treat deformed ears caused by injuries. It can achieve a more aesthetically pleasing outcome, restoring harmony and symmetry to the ears and face. Even minor deformities can be corrected, resulting in significant improvements in appearance and self-esteem.

How It Works

During your private consultation with Dr. Barone, a renowned facial plastic surgeon in Toledo, you will have the opportunity to discuss your specific cosmetic goals for your ears in great detail. Collaboratively, you and Dr. Barone will determine the suitability of ear-reshaping surgery for you. The procedure will involve altering the ear cartilage to enhance its aesthetic appearance, with any incisions strategically concealed behind the ear. It is crucial to emphasize that the alteration in ear shape will not impact your auditory capabilities.

What It Treats

Conditions treated by otoplasty include:

  • Macrotia, which refers to overly large ears
  • Protruding ears on one or both sides, to varying degrees, without associated hearing loss
  • Dissatisfaction with previous ear surgery in adults

Benefits

Otoplasty offers significant benefits, including correcting prominent, protruding, or misshapen ears, leading to increased self-confidence. The primary goal of this procedure is to create a more natural shape, bringing balance and proportion to both the ears and face. Otoplasty is a safe treatment approach that yields long-lasting results.

Testimonials

What our patients are saying

My experience with all the staff at EVOLV, including Dr. Barone, the coordinator Sandy, nurses Angie and Kayle, and Amy, has been amazing, whether I’m in person or over the phone speaking to the receptionists. I’m only 5 days post-op, and I’m very satisfied with my results so far.

I had two deep scars on my face following an injury. I started seeing Amanda for Microneedling treatments shortly after. I felt comfortable with our evidence-based treatment plan, and I learned a lot from her throughout the process. I cannot thank Amanda enough for helping me through such a difficult time. Thanks to her, I can now feel confident on my wedding day!

I have been going to Dr. Barone’s Evolv for my facials for quite a while and definitely notice an improvement in my skin. Amy is amazing, and I highly recommend her… she’s very knowledgeable and friendly. I highly recommend Evolv!

My skin has NEVER looked this good! I had the Sciton BBL and Halo Laser treatment 5 days ago and am amazed at how smooth and even-toned my skin is… all the spider veins and brown spots are gone! I actually went shopping today with no makeup on, only sunscreen… something I have never done. Payton was wonderful. She explained the procedure as she went and made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire process. I am extremely satisfied and would definitely recommend Evolv. Thank you so much!

Payton is a very friendly and awesome person! I enjoy talking to her. She is honest and helps with what I need. I definitely recommend her!!

My first experience here was amazing! I saw April; she was so great about going over every step of the process—from what the products we used were, to pros and cons, to what to expect for results. She was the best! She’s very knowledgeable, and you can tell she gives it her all. I am 1000% satisfied with the service and will definitely be going back (:

Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. I highly recommend this office to everyone!

Everyone is so nice. I saw Amanda, and she really helped me. She suggested some face creams I should use, and what a difference in 2 months! All my age spots and freckles are gone, and I think it even made some of my wrinkles not look as deep. I love the result, and Amanda did not mislead me. Thank you for truly caring.

Always a wonderful experience with EVOLV. The team called to let me know that an appointment had been canceled and created an opening, so I was able to go in prior to my scheduled appointment. As always, I’m thrilled with my treatment results. Every visit and treatment is top-notch, and I always look forward to returning.
