650.<Aesthetic & Functional Ear Surgery>
The ear is not merely a decorative edge of the face—it is a gatekeeper of sound, balance, and even the body’s subtle energetics.
Ear reshaping surgery, or auricular reconstruction, varies widely depending on the shape and condition of the ear.
Protruding ears may be folded back through cartilage suturing; constricted ears are released using skin flaps; buried ears are uncovered via local flap or skin grafting. When ears are underdeveloped or absent (microtia), we harvest rib cartilage to sculpt a new auricular frame, often followed by tissue expansion and skin grafting for a natural appearance.
Even the tiniest structures matter:
A missing tragus may be rebuilt with cartilage grafts; large or torn earlobes can be reduced or repaired; and in keloid-prone ears, excision must be followed by radiation or steroid therapy to prevent recurrence.
Yet cosmetic form isn’t the whole story.
The auricle collects and funnels sound—its curvature, protrusion angle, and features like the antihelix or tragus all affect how we perceive pitch, direction, and spatial quality.
A reduced tragus weakens sound capture; small lobes reduce acoustic absorption, altering sound balance. The earlobe also connects to the autonomic nervous system, making ear surgery not only aesthetic but subtly neurological.
And so: ear surgery is not a decision to take lightly. As a sensory terminal linked to the kidneys and time-perception centers (520mm), it should follow careful evaluation of the body’s condition—not just appearance.
Ear surgery is the art of honoring hearing by refining its form.
