Over half of children and adolescents report being a victim of bullying or witnessing someone being bullied. Bullying causes psychological distress, and, depending on the severity, can lead to dangerous consequences. Many instances of bullying involve being mocked because of physical appearance–in many cases, for protruding ears. Forever Young and Trim otoplasty surgery helps fix this issue.
By changing the shape and contour of the ears, the ears are no longer as pronounced and do not draw as much attention. Otoplasty (sometimes called ear pinning) can be performed on children as young as five years old, when ear growth is complete. Although the surgery requires anesthesia, post-operation pain is minimal and bandages can be removed within a few days.
Whether you or your child is a victim of bullying or wanting to gain more self-confidence, Forever Young and Trim’s otoplasty surgery is a viable option for people of any age who feel the need to change the shape of their ears. Call Forever Young and Trim today for a consultation: 954-440-1820.
