If you feel self-consciousness because your ears protrude or are misshapen, a Grand Rapids ear surgery for men at the Bengtson Center can help.

Grand Rapids plastic surgeons, Dr. Brad Bengtson and Dr. David Alfonso use advanced techniques to create a natural angle between your head and your ears.

Where needed, they can also create a pleasing fold and contour to your ears. As a result of male ear surgery Grand Rapids patients of ours are normally extremely satisfied with their results: ears that naturally complement facial features and contribute to a balanced, harmonious appearance.

What is Ear Surgery?

Ear surgery, also known as otoplasty, decreases the projection and the angle of the ear in relation to the head. It also improves the shape of the ear.

Ear surgery for men at our Grand Rapids practice can also improve structural deformities that result in a misshapen or absent ear. Typically an incision is made in the back portion of the ear to either reshape or reduce the cartilage and reposition the Y-shaped folds of the ear.
