If you want cosmetic ear reshaping surgery near the Bethesda area, Maia Plastic Surgery near Chevy Chase, MD is the answer. Ears come in all shapes and sizes, like other facial features. However, not all ears have a symmetrical or desirable shape or size. Ears that are misshapen can be distracting, pulling attention away from the face. If ears are unusually shaped, they can be corrected through ear plastic surgery. Dr. Munique Maia at Maia Plastic Surgery offers cosmetic ear reshaping surgery at our medical center near the Bethesda, MD, area.

The majority of the outer ear is made from cartilage. While flexible, cartilage is also prone to change shape. Many children, almost 30%, are born with misshapen ear cartilage. Often, this cartilage can be reshaped without surgery in the first few weeks after birth using ear molding procedures. However, this is only performed for cosmetic reasons, and there are many children who grow up with one or both ears that are oddly shaped. If it becomes a nuisance or the ear shape impacts self-confidence in their appearance, plastic surgery can be used to reshape the ear.

Plastic Surgery for Misshapen Ears

Whether an ear seems lopsided, unbalanced or pointed, the cartilage can be manipulated into a more pleasing shape. Dr. Maia is a board certified plastic surgeon with extensive experience in reshaping and grafting cartilage to alter facial features, like the ears and nose. Using advanced techniques, Dr. Maia can achieve a balanced ear contour for children and adults that are unhappy with the shape, size or overall appearance of their ears.

Are you self-conscious of your ears due to their shape? If you want to learn more about ear reshaping surgery and you live near the Bethesda, MD, area, contact us at Maia Plastic Surgery. We can schedule a private consultation with Dr. Maia at our medical clinic near Chevy Chase, MD.

Dr. Maia and her staff are incredibly professional and truly empathetic. They’ve done a beautiful job with the treatments that I’ve gotten and I look forward to coming to the office every single time.

Dr. Maia deserves more than 5-stars! I’m thrilled with my results and I’m less than 3 months post surgery. Dr. Maia is confident and kind, and not at all pushy like other plastic surgeons. I was overly impressed the morning of the procedure. The surgical and hospital staff know her well! They were ready for her and put me at ease while I was getting settled in the OR. I appreciate the team in Dr. Maia’s office for their patience and care. They are just as calm as Dr. Maia.

Mid 40s male who’s always had nasal breathing issues and a dorsal bump. I finally decided to do something about it with a septoplasty/rhinoplasty combo. I met with a few doctors but Dr. Maia stood out. She instilled confidence, and I’m extremely pleased with the results. The surgery was straight forward, and the swelling was surprisingly light. A week later the cast was off and I was on the short road to recovery. Honestly, if I had known it was this easy I would have done it earlier. Thanks Dr. Maia!

I recently had Dysport injected by NP Kristina, and I could not be happier with the outcome. I can already see some of the results few days post-injections! I love how quickly Dysport softens the wrinkles, without giving you the "frozen look". Just in time for the upcoming holidays! Earlier this year, I did 3 Morpheus-8 treatments to my face and neck, and I am CONSTANTLY being complimented on how good my skin looks. Worth every penny! I also had fillers injected by Dr. Maia and Kristina. Dr. Maia did my under-eye, which I am obsessed about... what a change! Kristina injected my lips, chin, jawline, and cheeks. My face looks more proportional and guess what.... I FINALLY HAVE A CHIN :) Thank you, Dr. Maia, Kristina, and the Team. You're the best. I will surely be back for more.

I had tummy tuck and muscle repair with Dr. Maia 3 months ago. I couldn't be happier. I am 44 and I got my 25 year old body back after tummy tuck with Dr. Maia. The initial consult was great. The surgery was fast. The post op care was excellent. Dr. Maia and team assured me that I had great post recovery and everything going okay. I had no complication whatsoever. The incission was very small and low which I love. She is amazing and caring surgeon. He teams are very responsive and wonderful. I am very happy with the result and everything.
