FAQs – Ear Surgery

How much does otoplasty cost?
Ear pinning at Leva Medical starts at $7,900 and includes your board-certified surgeon, private surgical suite, soft headband, and 12-month doctor-guided follow-up. With approved credit, payments can be as low as $180–$310 per month after a typical deposit. Exact quote after exam—individual needs vary.
Can I go home the same day?
Yes. Otoplasty is an outpatient surgery; you’ll relax in recovery for about an hour, clear safety checks, and an adult must drive you home. Most people feel comfortable resting on the couch that evening.
Will I need special after-care?
Plan to wear a soft, stretchy headband 24/7 for one week, then nights only for three months. Keep incisions clean and dry; most sutures dissolve on their own. We’ll show you gentle ear-care tips before you leave the clinic.
Does otoplasty hurt?
Discomfort is usually mild and controlled with over-the-counter pain relievers; prescription meds are rarely needed after the first night. Most patients rate pain as 2–3 out of 10 by day two.
Will I have visible scars?
Incisions are hidden in the natural crease behind the ear and fade to a thin line within a few months. Scar-care tips and follow-up visits help ensure discreet healing.
How long will my results last?
Because the cartilage is secured with permanent sutures, improvements are considered long-lasting. Only significant trauma or rapid growth in very young children is likely to alter the outcome
