COSMETIC SURGERY

Otoplasty for Children

Otoplasty, also called ear pinning, is an outpatient surgery that reshapes the cartilage of the ear to allow it to rest closer to the head for a more natural look. Choosing the right Otoplasty surgeon is especially important because this surgery is frequently performed on young patients. Parents can rest assured that their children are in excellent hands with Dr. Mobley and his staff, all expertly trained for the safe and compassionate care of pediatric patients.

Otoplasty for Children

When Dr. Mobley was a pre-medical student in college he had otoplasty himself and it was a life-changing event for him. While the entire story is longer, the short of it is that having this life-changing procedure as a young pre-medical student lead Dr. Mobley to his current career as a nationally recognized Facial Plastic Surgeon. This early experience with Dr. Mobley taught him a key lesson as a cosmetic surgeon. So often, people simply just want to look “normal” from cosmetic surgery and fit in and not stand out. Not standing out is what cosmetic otoplasty surgery is all about.

Dr. Mobley has lectured and published extensively on otoplasty surgery. He often performs over 30 otoplasties in a given year putting him in the top 5-10% of otoplasty surgeons. As with any operation, choosing a surgeon that performs a significant number of cases yearly is a very important variable to consider.

Younger children are often cared for under general anesthesia at a free standing ambulatory surgical facility that is well known for providing surgical care for younger patients. Our goal at Mobley MD is that you, or your child, have a safe surgical experience; and, especially for younger children, that their emotional comfort is supported through their entire surgical experience.

Lop, Cup, Constricted Ear Before & After Photos

Some people are born with a very specific type of cosmetic, ear deformity where the upper third of the ear is folded downward. This condition has different names, but is often referred to as a “lop ear", “constricted ear" or "cup ear" deformity. Over a 20+ year career Dr. Mobley has invented a variety of proprietary surgical techniques that can correct this condition. Simple cases can often be corrected with suture adjusting and custom splinting of the ear. More complex cases can require taking cartilage from the opposite ear to rebuild the affected lop ear. And the most complex cases can involve the use of taking small strips of cartilage from your ribs area. To see which procedure is right for you start today by scheduling a consultation.
