TRAUMATIC EAR DEFORMITIES AND DEFECTS
Traumatic ear deformities, which can result from accidents, fights, sports injuries, or even surgical procedures, can have profound effects on a person that extend beyond the physical appearance. Common causes include:
TORN EARLOBES
- Earlobes may get torn from earrings getting pulled or from wearing heavy earrings.
- Accidents: Loss of parts of the ear from accidents.
PIERCING COMPLICATIONS
Over time, certain types of ear piercings can lead to deformities, such as keloids, stretched piercings or stretched earlobes.
CAULIFLOWER EAR
This is a deformity caused by repeated trauma, commonly seen in wrestlers, rugby players and boxers. It results from untreated hematomas (bleeding under the skin) which lead to fibrosis and a lumpy appearance.
REMOVAL OF CANCER
Part of the ear may have to be excised to remove a benign lesion or cancer from a part of the external ear leading to a defect and subsequent deformity.
EAR RECONSTRUCTION
Dr Sandeep is skilled in performing ear reconstruction to address a variety of ear abnormalities. This procedure can significantly benefit the patient in numerous ways:
PSYCHOLOGICAL IMPACT
ENHANCED SELF-ESTEEM
Correction of visible deformities can lead to an increase in self-confidence and self-esteem, as the ears play a significant role in the symmetry and aesthetics of the face.
IMPROVEMENT IN BODY IMAGE
Individuals may develop an improvement in body image after correction of their deformity if they perceive it as a flaw or a source of embarrassment.
EMBRACING SOCIAL ENGAGEMENT
Enhanced confidence from ear reconstruction can inspire more active participation in social activities, alleviate social anxiety, and improve overall mood. Positive changes in appearance can often lead to a more fulfilling social life, free from the concerns of teasing or bullying.
POSITIVE SOCIAL RECOGNITION
Post-reconstructive surgery, individuals often experience a more positive reception in social settings, as their appearance aligns more closely with societal preferences. This can lead to enhanced social interactions and a reduction in negative stereotypes or judgments.
BROADENED PROFESSIONAL HORIZONS
Improved confidence and a harmonious appearance can broaden career prospects and opportunities. A positive self-image may reduce perceived barriers, allowing individuals to present themselves more effectively in the professional arena.
