The ears are the most overlooked organ among the facial features. Usually, everyone only pays attention to the nose, double eyelids, or the spots and acne on the face. Little do they know that the ears play a very important role in appearance. If you don’t believe it, look at a case.

This patient’s ears are hair-covered ears. Only a small part of the ear can be seen from the front, and the masseter muscle is relatively large. The face appears larger in the front view, and the facial contours are not smooth enough. After the surgical correction, the ears are visible from the front after the hair taping. Although the masseter muscles are not reduced, the facial lines become smoother and the face looks smaller visually.

Why does hair ear correction surgery have such a miraculous effect? The abduction of the auricle shares part of the face. According to the "reference object principle", under the condition that the face size remains unchanged, the ears change from "veneer" to "extension", and the enlarged ears form a clear contrast with the face. , your face will look smaller. The shape of the ears is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom. The earlobe is above the edge of the mandible. After the ears become "tall", the edge of the mandible to the outer contour of the ear just forms a diagonal upward line, which plays a role in modifying the face shape and makes the facial lines softer and smoother.

The surgical method for correcting hair-covered ears is to incise the skin and subcutaneous tissue from behind the ear, fully separate and release the post-auricular ligament and adhesion tissue, and expose the ear cartilage from the root of the concha cartilage to the helix. Around the periphery, the prosthetic material is fixed and sutured to the deep surface of the concha cartilage, and finally sutured.

Although ears cannot play a decisive role in appearance, just like in the picture above, Zhao Lusi’s ears are attached to her hair, but her appearance is still very good. However, for people with poor bones, the impact of ears on appearance is more than just a little bit.

If you feel that ear veneers seriously affect your appearance, you can consider appropriate surgical correction, but it must be moderate. The most important thing is to choose an experienced doctor, otherwise there may be problems with asymmetry of the ears, and it will be troublesome to perform surgical adjustments again.
