Visit Tampa Surgical Arts for Ear Surgery Performed by an Expert Cosmetic Surgeon

Ear SurgeryTampa Surgical Arts serves individuals of all ages in the Tampa Bay area, and we are led by Dr. Manik S. Bedi. We are proud to offer a variety of cosmetic surgery options for our clients, including ear surgery that can help adjust the size and shape of your ears. We can perform this surgery for patients as young as five, and we would be happy to discuss if this procedure is the right option for you or your child.

Ear Surgery Defined

Ear surgery, also called otoplasty, is a procedure that corrects or adjusts the proportion and position of the ears to achieve better symmetry with the face. It’s often performed on children and teenagers who have protruding or disfigured ears as well as those with ear structure defects that need to be addressed. With this procedure, the ears can be pinned back, repositioned, or even reshaped.

How Ear Surgery Is Performed

Otoplasty must be performed under anesthesia. Thankfully, at Tampa Surgical Arts, we have an in-clinic surgery center, so you won’t have to worry about traveling to a separate location for the procedure.

The first step of otoplasty is to create an incision behind the ear, right where the ear meets the head. Then, a number of different things can occur, which are all dependent on the patient’s ears and the results they want to achieve. Dr. Bedi may:

  • Remove any excess cartilage and/or skin
  • Trim and reshape the cartilage before pinning it back using permanent sutures
  • Use stitches to reposition the ear (these stitches will anchor the ear in place until the ear heals)

Ear Surgery Benefits

One of the main benefits of ear surgery is the boost of self-confidence it provides for adults and children who have spent years feeling embarrassed by their ears. Better self-confidence lends itself to an overall healthier attitude toward life – better grades in school, more positive relationships, and an openness to learning new skills.

Another benefit for ear surgery is the fact that it can be performed on children as young as five – the ears simply need to be fully grown before surgery – and, in most cases, won’t need to be revisited again. An individual can expect a lifetime result from this surgery.

Additionally, otoplasty is a low-risk procedure that yields natural-looking results and minimal scarring. It also doesn’t require a long and arduous recovery process.

Treatment Considerations for Ear Surgery

While ear surgery is not a highly invasive procedure, it will require general anesthesia, so patients should be in good physical health and able to handle the sedation. It’s also important to arrange to have a loved one to drive you to and from the surgery center, and to stay with you the first night as you recover.

Some individuals may be concerned about how otoplasty could affect one’s hearing. While the procedure will involve pinning back or reshaping the ears right where sound waves are localized, this procedure will not affect hearing. If anything like this does occur, it’s vital to get in touch with Dr. Bedi immediately.

What to Do Before and After Ear Surgery

Before otoplasty, it will be necessary to eliminate smoking as well as avoid any over-the-counter medications, such as aspirin. You’ll also want to discuss the medications you’re taking with Dr. Bedi and he can tell you whether you need to adjust or stop taking them before the procedure. You’ll also receive a thorough physical exam to ensure you are healthy enough to undergo the surgery, along with comprehensive instructions for what to do before and after it.

Once the otoplasty is complete, you can expect to spend a week recovering. Soft dressings will be applied to your ears that can be removed within a few days following the surgery. You’ll also experience mild discomfort, and an over-the-counter pain reliever can help. Dr. Bedi may send you home with a headband to hold the ears in place – if so, you’ll need to wear that for two weeks.

Within a week, you will be able to resume normal activities, such as work and/or school.

BBL UPTAKE

When fat is transfered to the buttock area, there are multiple factors that predict how much fat will take.

Some of them are: fat quality, overall health, tissue envelope, scar tissue, genetics, area of buttocks getting fat, etc..

SCULPTING + CURVES AFTER TUMMY TUCK

ANEMIA AND BEET JUICE

Body sculpting with or without fat transfer can cause you to feel tired/weak after your procedure.

This is because the amount of volume removed (up to 4L of fat) can cause a drop in your blood count.

We have a protocol for all clients to raise their blood levels (Hb and HCT) prior to their surgery and continue afterward.

Among some of the methods to help raise your blood count are: beet juice, B12, and Floradix.

Safety is our number one priority, so if your labs do not meet our fully accredited surgery center requirements, the procedure will be canceled or delayed.

FAT UPTAKE + HIP DIPS

The most challenging area to add volume is the hip dip area.

This also happens to be the most commonly requested area to be filled for both a round 1 and round 2 BBL.

In most clients, the skin envelope is very tight, and even in the best hands, a round 2 BBL might be required to achieve the desired look.

The fat uptake in the laterals is sometimes 50% or less, so this area often looks `too big` on the table but will settle after the healing phase is complete.

***Can you guess how much volume we added to the buttocks in the case? Comment below.

The key 🔑 is to make sure your entire surgery team COMMUNICATES what is needed to correct the hip dip area.

Procedure: Revision Liposculpture 360 + Skinny BBL (hip dip correction)⚡️🍑

SKINNY CLIENT REVISION

The thinner the tissue envelope (skinny clients), the more challenging the case.

This beautiful woman had a BBL elsewhere and came to see me for ab fine tuning plus hip dip correction without fat transfer.

DEEP HIP DIPS

Clients that are very athletic and weight train will have the most challenging hip dips to treat.

In some cases, a round 2 BBL will achieve the best results.

It is worth repeating that hip dips are normal and will become more pronounced as the butt becomes more muscular.

This beautiful woman wanted a rounder and fuller buttocks.

***Can you guess how many CC of fat were added in this case?

SKINNY BBL

The most challenging cases continue to be those who are skinny and want fat transfer.

ABS

The most challenging procedure (and also the most rewarding for me) is ab fine tuning.

The critical part of this total body procedure is a natural look, which means: smooth dynamic contours, tight skin, and of course hidden entry points.

Stealth entry points separate those who dabble in body sculpting from those who specialize in it.

***Let me know in the comments/poll if you can see her entry points. 🥷

SKINNY WAIST + HIPS

Having a skinny waist is a trend that likely will not go out of style.

To create the optical illusion of a super tiny waist involves contouring the abdominal area plus fat transfer to the laterals.

Some are blessed with underlying bone structure to take this result to the next level.

This beautiful client had her first BBL elsewhere and came to see me for more curves plus ab fine tuning.

As always, maintaining a healthy lifestyle will produce the best results.
