Ear surgery, or otoplasty, is typically performed on children between the ages of 5 and 14, as this is when the ear cartilage is more developed. However, it is important to consult with a qualified plastic surgeon who specializes in pediatric otoplasty to assess the child’s specific situation and determine the most appropriate age for the procedure. The surgeon will consider factors such as the child’s physical and emotional maturity to ensure the best possible outcome and patient satisfaction.
