We can do ear pinning (otoplasty) in our clinic in just a few hours, but the results are life changing. The patient has little to no discomfort and can resume daily activities within 24 to 48 hours with the exception of sun/heat exposure and exercise that produces excessive sweating. The patient wears a band over the ears, like a sweat band or exercise band, for 7 day.
