Dressing

  • A bandage around the head is worn for 48 hours, then replaced by a light dressing.
  • A support bandage will be worn for 2 to 3 weeks night and day, and then for 3 weeks to protect the sutures made during the otoplasty.

Follow-up and results

  • The dressings will be renewed every 2 days by a nurse until complete healing (about 15 days).
  • A prescription will be given to you when you leave the clinic.
  • A consultation appointment for control will be scheduled 7 days after the operation.
  • The results of the otoplasty are visible immediately after the operation.
  • However, the final result will be evaluated after 1 to 2 months (melting of the post-operative edema and disappearance of bruises).
