Ear Surgery (Otoplasty) in Beverly Hills

If you’re self-conscious about the shape, size, or position of your ears, you’re not alone. Ear surgery, also known as otoplasty, is a safe and effective procedure that can address a variety of cosmetic ear concerns, from prominent ears and torn earlobes to aging-related volume loss or disfiguring keloids. At Ideal Face & Body, Dr. Yovino performs these procedures in-office using precise, minimally invasive techniques that require no general anesthesia and allow for same-day recovery.

What Ear Surgery (Otoplasty) Can Address

Ear surgery may be the ideal solution if you’re experiencing:

• Split or stretched earlobes from heavy earrings or trauma

• Protruding ears that stick out too far from the head

• Keloids or scar tissue on or around the earlobes

• Sagging, deflated earlobes due to aging or skin thinning

• Cosmetic imbalance between one or both ears

These issues can be present from birth or develop over time, but they often affect self-confidence. Fortunately, they can be safely corrected in a comfortable, in-office setting with hidden incisions and minimal downtime.

Types of Treatments Offered

Dr. Yovino offers a range of in-office ear procedures, including:

● Ear Pinning (Otoplasty)

Ideal for individuals with ears that protrude outward, ear pinning involves reshaping and repositioning the cartilage to bring the ears closer to the head. This is often performed on patients who’ve been bothered by prominent ears since childhood and are seeking a more balanced profile.

● Split Earlobe Repair

Split or stretched earlobes—often due to trauma, gauges, or heavy earrings—can be surgically repaired in-office with a simple procedure that restores the natural shape and strength of the earlobe.

● Keloid Removal

Keloids—raised, thick scars that often develop after piercings—can cause both cosmetic and physical discomfort. Dr. Yovino removes keloids with precision surgical techniques, often followed by post-treatment therapies to reduce recurrence. Insurance coverage may be available in many cases.

● Dermal Filler Earlobe Rejuvenation

Aging can leave the earlobes thin, wrinkled, and deflated. Dermal fillers such as Juvederm® or Restylane® are used to restore volume and shape, creating a more youthful, supple appearance with no downtime.

Comfort, Convenience, and Natural Results of Ear Surgery (Otoplasty)

All ear surgeries are performed in the privacy and comfort of our Beverly Hills office, without the need for general anesthesia. Local anesthesia is used to ensure your comfort, and patients return home the same day. Incisions are carefully hidden behind the ear or within natural folds, leaving little to no visible scarring.

Dr. Yovino tailors every procedure to your individual anatomy and aesthetic goals, ensuring results that are subtle, symmetrical, and naturally balanced.
