Help – My Ears Are Too Big!

It’s a common experience to feel self-conscious about our appearance, and for many, the size or shape of their ears can be a source of insecurity. If you’re one of those who feel that your ears are too big and it’s affecting your self-esteem, know that you’re not alone. This feeling is more widespread than you might think, and there are options available to address it.

First and foremost, it’s important to acknowledge that everyone’s body is unique, and there is no one-size-fits-all definition of beauty. However, if the size of your ears is causing you distress, there are solutions that can help you feel more comfortable and confident in your own skin.

Macrotia Ear Reduction Surgery

The National Institutes of Health – National Library of Medicine defines macrotia as “Median longitudinal ear length greater than two standard deviations above the mean and median ear width greater than two standard deviations above the mean (objective); or, apparent increase in length and width of the pinna (subjective).”

Simply put, macrotia is abnormally large ears. It can be a source of emotional discomfort for individuals who have it, and it can lead to feelings of self-consciousness and a lack of confidence.

Fortunately, surgical options are available to address macrotia and other concerns related to ear size and shape. Otoplasty, also known as cosmetic ear surgery, is a procedure that can reshape and resize the ears to achieve a more balanced and proportionate appearance. During otoplasty, Dr. Benjamin Stong can adjust the size, shape, and position of the ears to create a more harmonious overall look.

Otoplasty is a highly individualized procedure, and the specific approach will depend on the unique anatomy and goals of each patient. Fortunately, the American Society of Plastic Surgeons reports that otoplasty has one of the highest patient satisfaction rates of all cosmetic procedures.

Dr. Stong is a highly qualified and experienced Atlanta facial plastic surgeon who can assess your concerns, provide personalized recommendations and guide you through the process of making the best decision. He emphasizes having realistic expectations and a clear understanding of the potential risks and benefits.
