Question:
How will my ears be protected after I have otoplasty surgery? Will I have bandages put over my ears?
Answer:
Following otoplasty surgery I will put a full head wrap over your ears. The dressing is designed to conform to the newly created structure of the ears and to protect the ears for the first week following otoplasty surgery. After a week the dressing will be removed and you will be required to wear a head band over your ears at night time to protect your ears from trauma while you are sleeping.
