First, the shape is different, and the earlobe deformity is easy to distinguish.
But from the appearance and shape of ears, people with abnormal earlobes are very easy to distinguish. For example, our common ear bending degree is that the angle of the ear shell is greater than 90 degrees, generally above 150 degrees. There are also some patients with severe deformities, and their ears are even curled like shells. There are also some cup-shaped ears, that is, the earlobe grows into a cup, and the upper part of the cup-shaped ear hangs over the external auditory meatus. Patients with severe ear deformities can't wear eyes or masks.
Second, there are many kinds of earlobe deformities.
The deformity of earlobe can be roughly divided into three categories: no earlobe, too small earlobe and triangular earlobe. For example, the earlobe is too small, some earlobes are small and fleshy, and there is a kind of microtia, which is actually caused by congenital ear dysplasia, and even has no ear shape. It is better to understand that there is no earlobe on the ear at all. When the earlobe is triangular, the lower earlobe is triangular, which is more noticeable.
Third, choose plastic surgery according to the actual situation.
Plastic surgery can be done for earlobe deformity, but the right medicine should be given according to different earlobe deformities. For example, after the age of five or six, you can do earlobe flap correction and plastic surgery, earlobe is too small and needs earlobe breast augmentation surgery, and microtia needs ear reconstruction surgery. In general, costal cartilage is often used to reconstruct ears during surgery. People with mild cup-shaped ears can wear earlobe orthosis 3 months before birth, and those who miss the best correction time or have severe cup-shaped ears can recover after 6 years old.
