Why does protruding ears occur?

Prominent ears are an anatomical feature that is completely harmless to a person’s physical health. Prominent ears have only one significant “minus”. It causes many complexes and spoils the quality of life. Both child and adult.

“Why do your ears stick out?” - this question is most often addressed to heredity.

Features of pregnancy and childbirth can also affect the occurrence of protruding ears. A narrow maternal pelvis, abnormal position of the fetus, and cesarean section can cause protruding ears in children.

Methods to combat protruding ears

You've probably already thought about how to stop your ears from sticking out? You can get rid of it without surgery. And in children under 9 years of age - even at home, while the cartilage is still soft and not fully formed.

There is no point in tormenting yourself over the topic of why your ears stick out. How to fix this defect is worth thinking about:

• Children under 9 years old should wear a special silicone corrector or bandage that presses the ears to the head, and they can form a normal angle of deviation from the head;
• surgical intervention occurs under general or local anesthesia and involves cutting off the excess part of the cartilage, leaving an inconspicuous scar;
• laser correction is considered less traumatic than surgery;
• otoplasty will help cope with the task of “eliminating protruding ears”;
• hairstyles that cover the ears;
• ear correctors and aesthetic correction of the angle of deviation of the ears.

Operation technology

Surgery to correct the shape of the auricle can be carried out either traditionally or using a laser. Thus, laser surgery is much easier to endure, and the rehabilitation period is much shorter than after surgery with a scalpel.

This can be explained by the fact that a doctor’s laser work is almost bloodless, and the risk of tissue infection is close to zero.

The correction procedure lasts about one hour. First, the doctor conducts the necessary research, the patient takes the necessary tests. The doctor then marks the areas where the incision will be made. This is usually the place behind the ear near the ear crease. Next, it pushes back the skin and carries out the process of cartilage formation. The difficulty of the procedure depends on the degree of protruding ears of the patient.

After the formation of the required shape of the auricle is completed, the doctor sews up the incision. Then he applies a special disinfecting bandage.

How to quickly remove protruding ears in children

It is difficult to imagine how to put a ten-year-old child under general anesthesia in order to eliminate a cosmetic defect. It is known that surgical intervention in the body can only be justified in an emergency situation.

The reality is that without surgery, protruding ears can only be removed in children under 9 years of age. Although here there is no absolute guarantee of the desired result.

To avoid the help of a surgeon, you can use ear correctors. These are completely invisible silicone discs, they are connected to each other and make it possible to adjust the desired position of the ear.

Lightweight, hypoallergenic, invisible, resistant to water, they will maintain the comfort of normal life and add confidence in their appearance to the one who wears them.

Recovery time

Otoplasty does not require a hospital stay. The little patient spends 1-2 hours under the supervision of a plastic surgeon and medical staff, and then can go home with his parents.

An important stage of rehabilitation is wearing a fixing elastic bandage. You must stay in it for 14 days without taking it off. Thus, the ear cartilage is fixed in its new position. Next, you need to wear a bandana for another 7-14 days to stabilize the result. The result of otoplasty is assessed 1 month after surgery at a follow-up examination with a plastic surgeon.

What do large protruding ears say about a person, a man and a woman: physiognomy

The eyes, as you know, are the mirror of the soul, and the ears open the doors to the world around us. The function of hearing is the perception of information from any sound source, even invisible. In physiognomy, the ears are responsible for a person’s ability to perceive and process information.

• Prominent ears reveal a person who has his own view of the world around him, who is independent in his assessments and judgments and does not follow the majority. This approach to life invariably causes problems in society.
• If the right ear is more protruding, this expresses activity and determination in the business and social sphere. If it’s on the left, the person strives for independence in his personal and intimate life.
• If the ears are large, this is a sign of great vital resources and willpower. Such people are very energetic and assertive. After listening to the advice, they will still do everything their own way.
• Small ears protruding from above indicate sensitive and emotional people who can be quite pragmatic, but in any non-standard situation they behave excessively impulsively.

Ears can “tell” about a person’s character

Be sure to dry your skin after - to securely attach the corrector and make it comfortable to wear. And your ears will be the most beautiful.”
