Kids can be ruthless, especially to kids that have a physical abnormality. Children born with ears that stick out from the head or are abnormally large can face insufferable teasing that can wear on their self-confidence well into adulthood. Otoplasty is a procedure that can eliminate this unnecessary teasing through re-shaping the ears into a more normal appearance. It is often recommended that the earlier Otoplasty is performed the better as the cartilage is more malleable and to side-step teasing, however Otoplasty may also be performed on teens and adults. Cosmetic ear surgery may also be used to correct torn ear lobes or other imperfections in the structure of the ear.
