What is the surgical technique?
The purpose of otoplasty is to correct the prominence of the ear due to two factors. It is the defect of plication more or less associated with an excess of cartilage of the conch.
What is the new Earfold technique?
In case of prominent ear at the top of the ear or in case of simple asymmetry the implementation of Earfold implant corrects the prominent ears by simple anesthesia.
Also in case of incomplete or disappointing result after an otoplasty we can correct the persistent defects with Earfold. The predictable result is visualized before in consultation and the consequences are of simplest.
