Prominent ear correction surgery helps fix protruding ears, giving them a more natural shape and position. A simple and safe procedure to improve overall facial balance and confidence.
Prominent Ear Correction
Prominent Ear Correction is a cosmetic procedure that reshapes ears that stick out more than usual. Dr. Sunish explains that while this condition is usually present from birth, it can also result from injury. Though it doesn’t cause medical issues, it can lead to low self-esteem—especially in children. Correcting prominent ears helps improve facial balance and boosts confidence at any age.

Frequently Asked Questions
Rhinoplasty, commonly called a nose job, is a cosmetic and/or functional procedure to reshape the nose. It can enhance facial appearance or correct structural issues that affect breathing.
People choose rhinoplasty for several reasons:
- To improve the aesthetic appearance of their nose (shape, size, or symmetry)
- To correct congenital defects or nasal deformities
To fix breathing issues caused by conditions like a deviated septum
Cosmetic rhinoplasty focuses on enhancing the nose’s appearance, while functional rhinoplasty is performed to resolve breathing problems by correcting internal nasal structures.
There are two approaches:
- Closed rhinoplasty: Incisions are made inside the nose with no visible scarring.
- Open rhinoplasty: A small incision is made on the columella (the tissue between nostrils) for better access to the nasal structure.
Dr. Goyal will determine the best approach based on your anatomy and desired results.
The procedure is performed under general anesthesia or sedation, so there is no pain during surgery. Some swelling, bruising, or discomfort may occur afterward, which can be managed with medication.
- 1–2 weeks: Most swelling and bruising subside.
- 3–6 months: Nose shape continues to refine.
- Up to 1 year: Final results are visible as tissues fully heal.
