Recovery
Following ear surgery, patients may experience pain, bruising and/or swelling. Painkillers may be prescribed to minimize pain, while bruising and swelling often subside after a few weeks. Stitches and bandaging are removed after a week, and most people resume regular activities within ten days after ear surgery.
Risks
As with all surgical procedures, there are certain risks associated with ear surgery. These risks may include persistent pain, adverse reaction to the anesthesia, infection, blood clots, and undesirable scarring. To minimize the occurrence of complications, always choose a board-certified plastic surgeon for your procedure.
