Ear Pinning in Fredericksburg, VA
What is Ear Pinning?
Ears that appear to protrude outward, are asymmetrical or misshapen, or look oversized can negatively impact your self-esteem, especially during childhood. Ear reshaping surgery (also known as otoplasty) is a cosmetic treatment that helps redefine the size, position, and shape of the ears to produce a pleasing look. Dr. Howard Heppe, Dr. Harold Bautista, and Dr. Pejman Aflaki are plastic surgeons in Fredericksburg, VA who have helped many adults and children overcome the embarrassment of showing their ears by undergoing this surgery. Regardless of the cosmetic issue, ear surgery at Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg allows patients to show their faces at any angle with newfound confidence. If you or your child are concerned about the appearance of the ears, make an appointment to get more information on otoplasty.
How Does Ear Pinning Work?
Ear reshaping surgery is completed using a form of anesthesia. In most cases, the incision is made near the back of the ear or within the inner ear. Cartilage may be removed or added during this procedure to create a smaller or larger appearance. It is common for both ears to be addressed during treatment to make sure they appear symmetrical. After this, the incisions are closed with sutures and bandaged so they stay protected.

Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg Reviews
I did my research and I found Dr Heppe was one of Northern Virginia’s top plastic surgeons. When I met Dr Heppe and his staff, I was very happy on how friendly and knowledgeable they were. On the day of my procedure, which is done in the building, I was very much impressed with how the process was done. All my questions and concerns were answered. I am a registered nurse, and I am acutely aware of when infection control procedures are followed and not followed, I absolutely felt safe in this environment. I am now three months out from my surgery and I am very much pleased with the results. I did not have any postoperative complications nor any infection. I honestly can highly recommend Dr.Heppe. I had a brachioplasty done and it’s the first time in 30 years that I’ve worn sleeveless tops and dresses. I wish I had done this earlier! Thank you to Dr Heppe and his staff. I have sent friends to him and they are pleased as well. Connie W RN

Five Stars are Not enough for Dr. Aflaki. I did revision rhinoplasty and I cannot thank him enough for such an amazing job he has done. The best decision I made. He is simply the best, number one plastic surgeon.
I had a breast augmentation with Dr. Bautista and I am so happy that I chose him. I came into the office because one breast was larger than the other. Dr. Bautista examined me and told me what he was able to do which was stitch up the larger breast so gravity wouldn't pull it down so hard after surgery. Nearly 3 months later they are sitting evenly and I'm so happy. The nurses were great as well. I had other medical doctors and they ensured I got a doctor's note to approve the surgery as well as making sure they honor my latex allergy. Everyone was so nice and the process was just so welcoming and amazing. Highly recommend!
