The most suitable period for scoop ear surgery is 5-6 years. In this period, in which ear development is completed by 80-90%, an intervention will not prevent ear development. Also, at this age, the ear cartilage with a very soft consistency is shaped more easily than the hard adult cartilage. The psychological development of the child is not spoiled by the initiative to be done in preschool period.
If you think your ears are leaning forward noticeably from the front view,
If there is an increase in opening to the front and flattening of the ear folds,
If there is a clear difference in the opening of your two ears, you can be a candidate for surgery.
If this situation is noticed in newborns, improvement can be achieved without the need for surgery with splinting and patch techniques that will start before 6 months.
