Success Story: Dr. Raj Dedhia’s Recent Otoplasty

What Is Otoplasty?

Otoplasty–also known as cosmetic ear surgery–is a procedure to change the shape, position or size of the ears. Patients often pursue otoplasty for one of two reasons:

1) They’re unhappy with the appearance of their ears
2) Their ears are misshapen due to an injury or birth defect

Otoplasties can be performed on patients of any age, assuming their ears have reached full growth (typically age 5).

Success Story: Otoplasty, Memphis, TN

We’re proud of our Facial Plastics division, the only group in the Mid-South whose specialists are all fellowship-trained. Our division chief, Dr. Raj Dedhia, recently performed a successful otoplasty and the results are stunning!

Dr. Dedhia shares:

“This patient is now 3 months recovered from her otoplasty (ear pinning) and could not be happier! Our goals were to bring her ears closer to her scalp and improve symmetry. Her procedure was done in the office under local anesthesia while she was completely awake and comfortable! All of her incisions are well hidden behind her ears and are practically invisible. She’s such a lovely person and I feel lucky to have had the opportunity to care for her!”
