What is Cosmetic Ear Surgery?

Cosmetic ear surgery is a procedure to reshape, resize, or reposition the ear. It is typically performed to correct ear deformities commonly known as prominent ears.

Who Can Have Cosmetic Ear Surgery?

This surgery is generally suitable for children over the age of 5, as well as teenagers and adults. By this age, the ears are fully developed, making it an appropriate time for surgical intervention.

How is the Surgery Performed?

The surgery is usually done under local anesthesia, though general anesthesia may be preferred for children. The surgeon makes an incision behind the ear and reshapes the cartilage to reposition the ear. The procedure typically takes 1-2 hours.

What is the Recovery Process Like?

Patients can usually return home the same day after surgery. The ears are bandaged for the first few days, and mild swelling, bruising, and pain may occur but usually subside within a few weeks. Complete recovery generally takes 4-6 weeks.

Will There Be Scars After Surgery?

Since incisions are usually made behind the ear, scars are well-hidden and become less noticeable over time. For most patients, the scars are nearly invisible.

What Are the Risks of Surgery?

As with any surgical procedure, cosmetic ear surgery has some risks, including infection, bleeding, reactions to anesthesia, and over-correction of the cartilage. However, these risks can be minimized by an experienced surgeon.

Are the Results Permanent?

Yes, the results of cosmetic ear surgery are usually permanent. The ears remain in their new position, and it is not expected that they will return to their original shape.

What Should Be Avoided After Cosmetic Ear Surgery?

For the first few weeks post-surgery, patients should avoid physical activities, avoid putting pressure on the ears, and wear a protective bandage. It is essential to follow all instructions given by the doctor.

What is the Cost of the Surgery?

The cost varies depending on the surgeon’s experience, the hospital where the surgery is performed, and the complexity of the procedure. Generally, insurance does not cover cosmetic surgeries, so the expenses are typically borne by the patient.

What if the Patient is Not Satisfied with the Results?

If the patient is not satisfied with the results, revision surgery may be an option. However, this is rare and is generally performed 6-12 months after the initial surgery.

I found Dr. Mustafa as a result of my research and went to him with the complaint of lack of ventilation of the Eustachian tube and decreased hearing. I had had surgery on the ear many times before, so he looked at my nose and said that there was a curvature in the nasal bone and a serious devaluation. If we correct it, it would benefit the ear and it would help me breathe in the future. So we did the surgery. We decided to be together, now I'm getting some fresh air and my hearing has improved a little, he said I'll be better, may God bless him, his communication and friendliness was very good, I'm glad to have you. my teacher

If you are reading this article right now, you are in search of information like us. For this reason, I will tell our story in a little detail so that maybe it will be of some help to you. My daughter is 3 years old, we take her to our pediatrician regularly and when necessary. Our adventure started with nasal congestion. I am talking about a congestion that does not go away even though we constantly open it. Afterwards, mouth opening and snoring. When we asked our pediatrician about this situation, he referred us to Mustafa Hodja. After the examination of the adenoid size, He said it was 90%. We heard the sentence we didn't want: 'There should be surgery.' You'll be right, as a mother, I didn't want to have a young child undergo surgery right away. I even shared the situation with my pediatrician. He said, 'If Mustafa Hodja says, get it done, he won't say it easily. Make an appointment right away. We created the surgery and two days later, my baby had surgery. The only difficult thing about this surgery was waiting outside while your child was inside. Apart from that, everything was very planned and professional. The evening we came home, my baby was not snoring. He slept and we were incredibly surprised by this situation. We did not experience any negative situation. I would like to express our endless gratitude to Mustafa Hodja once again. Ms. Ayşegül, who did the programming, guided us very well. I am glad our paths crossed. Sleep without snoring, may the children be happy❤️

I went to the doctor with a complaint of symptom perforation. He said that he could easily close it after the examination. I had my surgery in April 2024. He also performed deviation and nose tip aesthetics. My priority was, of course, to repair the perforation. Thank God, the hole closed and I also had a beautiful nose. My recovery process is still ongoing, it was a long and difficult surgery, but I can breathe healthy. During this process, Ms. Ayşegül was always just a phone call away. I also thank him very much for his interest.

Septal perforation Due to a nose surgery I had years ago, there were 2 huge holes and no cartilage was left in the nose. I could breathe very hard because all the cartilage in my nose had worn away. I did a lot of research and consulted many doctors. They said it was a very risky surgery, they said we couldn't do it. I tried a lot, I researched a lot, and lastly, Mustafa Deniz. I met my doctor Yilmaz, I found his clinic and went to be examined, he said that it was a risky surgery but he could do it. Actually, I had some fears, but after the examination, he made me overcome that fear. I had septal performance and plastic surgery. It took about 11 hours. It took 4 months. I got excellent results. The holes in my nose were closed, with the cartilage taken from the rib. My nose has become more beautiful again than before. I can breathe very easily. I would like to thank my teacher Mustafa very much. He is a very good teacher, I think he is the best in this field.

We left Van and came to Antalya for my teacher Mustafa Deniz Yılmaz. He was very friendly and helped us a lot, he took one-on-one attention. My surgery was very difficult. I was diagnosed with septal perforation (hole in the nose). Many doctors we went to said that it was difficult and there were only a few people who did it, and Mustafa He directed me to my marine instructor. He took very good care of me and performed my surgery successfully. Thank you very much to him and his team. I'm glad to have you.

I took my mother, who was treated for vertigo in various hospitals for almost two months but could not get any results. As a result of detailed examination and tests performed by audiologists, Mustafa determined that she had balance nerve inflammation. The treatment, which was expected to last 4 weeks, was completed in almost 2 weeks, accompanied by expert audiologists. His condition is very good, he returned to his normal life, thank you to everyone who contributed 🙏🏻
