Dr. Sean Boutros performs microtia ear reconstruction surgery for children who have ear deformity.
Houston Plastic and Craniofacial Surgery, a well-known plastic surgery practice situated in Houston, Texas performs result-oriented and safe microtia repair. The surgery is carried out at the center's advanced surgical facility by the center's qualified, skilled and highly experienced plastic surgeon. It is typically carried out when the child is at an age when adequate rib cartilage can be removed for ear reconstruction.
About the Microtia Repair Procedure
The process of ear reconstruction involves two procedures. In the first procedure, the new ear is built to replace the deformed one. The necessary cartilage is extracted from the ribs. The plastic surgeon shapes the cartilage to make it resemble a proper ear and then places it beneath the skin in the region where the ear should be.
The second procedure is to create some space at the back of the ear. This involves simply raising the ear from the side of the head. A skin graft and a small piece of cartilage that is positioned in a pocket beneath the skin are utilized to position the ear off the head and keep it in that position.
