Board Certified Plastic Surgeon performs Ear Surgery, Ear Pinning and Otoplasty procedures for Los Angeles, Beverly Hills and Ventura

Otoplasty is a common cosmetic surgical procedure in which prominent ears or large ears are reshaped to lie closer to the side of the head. The procedure is sometimes known as “ear pinning”. Frequently, this procedure is done for children who are self-conscious or being teased about their prominent ears. Sometimes, otoplasty is offered to young adults or older patients who always wanted their ears corrected but did not previously have the opportunity. This website, LAOtoplasty.com is provided as an information resource to share with you basic information about otoplasty, provide typical before and after results, and introduce you to a very experienced plastic surgeon and otoplasty expert.

Dr. Stephen Bresnick is a board-certified plastic surgeon, Stanford-trained, who specializes in otoplasty. Dr. Bresnick became an otoplasty expert through his work as a plastic surgeon at the prestigious Childrens Hospital Los Angeles. As an attending surgeon and Assistant Professor of Plastic Surgery, Dr. Bresnick has performed hundreds of plastic surgical ear procedures including otoplasty and ear reconstruction. Please note that the before and after photos on the LAOtoplasty site are a few of Dr. Bresnick’s actual patients who have recently had an otoplasty procedure.

Otoplasty can be performed as early as age 5 or 6 years. There is no maximum age for the procedure. The technique that Dr. Bresnick prefers for otoplasty involves placement of a fine incision in the natural crease behind the ear. The ear cartilage is then reshaped with permanent sutures which heal in place beneath the skin. These sutures are not visible. Incisions on the front of the ear are usually not necessary. The healing is quite rapid after surgery, with bandages coming off after just a few days. Some minor ear is normal after surgery, but much of the swelling reduces in the first week or so after surgery. More attractive and less prominent ears are achieved with a nicely performed otoplasty, and Dr. Bresnick will offer the finest care and beautiful results for you or or loved one.
