Otoplasty

(ear surgery) OtoplastyThe otoplasty is a plastic surgery intervention, which aims to correct the prominent ears, in order to stick a little more to the head or to reduce the size of the ears. Through otoplasty this type of esthetic deficiencies can be corrected, in fact it is one of the very few plastic surgery interventions that are carried out by children and adolescents.

The night before surgery Eat something soft the night before the procedure. Do not eat or drink anything after 10:00 pm.

Do not take any medication unless it is prescribed by your doctor. Remove the nail polish.

In the surgical area Before having a liposculpture treatment, we must go through a series of tests and analyzes, which will determine if the patient is able to undergo this type of procedure. Do not shave or apply moisturizing lotion.

Do not use makeup for the hospital. Wear loose clothing or buttons on the front.

Leave jewelry and other valuables at home. Arrive at the clinic at least one hour before the scheduled surgery.

The day of surgery should bring a companion.
