Ear Pinning Surgery in Las Vegas, NV
Prominent ears can be emotionally distressing for young children and adults alike. Otoplasty works to correct prominent ears, by reshaping and/or repositioning the cartilage of the ears so they lay closer to the head and have a more natural appearance.
Performed with an incision hidden on the back of the ear, the cartilage is removed, refined and contoured into a more natural position and appearance. Stitches are then precisely placed to maintain the new form and close the incision.
Candidates for Ear Surgery
- Improved Ear Symmetry: Otoplasty can correct asymmetrical ears, making them more symmetrical and balanced with the rest of the facial features.
- Enhanced Aesthetics for Protruding Ears:The surgery is particularly beneficial for individuals with protruding ears, bringing them closer to the head for a more typical appearance.
- Boosted Self-Confidence:Many individuals, especially children, can experience increased self-esteem and confidence after the surgery, especially if they were previously self-conscious about their ears.
- Correction of Congenital Defects: Otoplasty can correct congenital ear deformities, offering both aesthetic and psychological benefits.
- Improved Proportions: The procedure can resize ears that are overly large, bringing them into better proportion with the head and face.
- Enhanced Comfort with Glasses or Headwear: Reshaping the ears can make wearing glasses, headphones, or certain types of headwear more comfortable.

Advantages of having otoplasty in Summerlin, NV as a child
Performing the procedure earlier in life can reduce teasing and the negative self-image a child might develop as a result. Dr. Pancholi can perform otoplasty on children as young as 5 years old, when the ears are fully developed. For younger patients, he may recommend general anesthesia, administered by a board certified MD anesthesiologist, to make the experience more comfortable.
Otoplasty for adults
Adults who have always thought about changing the appearance of their ears can benefit from otoplasty as well. With an improved ear contour, you will have more options for wearing your hair without feeling self-conscious about your ears and enjoy a more refined balance to your facial features overall.

The surgery can be tailored to the specific needs and goals of the individual, whether it’s pinning back, reshaping, reducing size, or repairing injury. Otoplasty can be safely performed on both children (typically after the age of 5) and adults.
