Otoplasty (Ear Correction)

Otoplasty at Klinika Leticia in Brno corrects prominent, deformed or injured ears and earlobes under local anaesthesia (adults and older children) or general anaesthesia (young children). Performed by MUDr. Petr Hýža, Ph.D. and MUDr. Jitka Vokurková, Ph.D. Bilateral prominent ear correction from 30,000 Kč; earlobe reconstruction and hole closure also available. Suitable for children from age 5 and adults of any age.

Prominent ears are one of the most common aesthetic concerns in children and young adults. At Klinika Leticia otoplasty is performed from age 5 (once ear cartilage has reached near-adult size) under general anaesthesia in young children, and under local anaesthesia for older children and adults as an outpatient procedure. Surgery repositions and reshapes the cartilage, setting the ear closer to the head through incisions hidden behind the ear. Beyond classic prominent-ear correction, the clinic offers complex ear reshaping including concha bowl reduction, earlobe reduction for large earlobes, earlobe hole closure for stretched piercings and earlobe reconstruction after gauge (tunnel) stretching. Each is priced per procedure, bilaterally or unilaterally as needed. Recovery is straightforward: a head bandage is worn for several days post-operatively, and the cartilage settles into its new position over the following weeks.
