Feel good again at last.
Your path to a perfectly harmonious face.
Protruding or uneven ears can often lead to self-confidence problems and affect well-being. Ear correction, also known as ear pinning or otoplasty, is an effective way for Dr. Berkei to address this aesthetic concern. This surgical procedure not only improves the harmony of the face, but also boosts your self-confidence by creating a more natural ear shape that blends seamlessly into the overall appearance of the face. Dr. Berkei uses the most advanced techniques to ensure that the results are both natural and aesthetically pleasing. This procedure is suitable for patients of all ages and offers significant benefits, including improved facial symmetry and increased social confidence.
Protruding ears are usually a congenital feature caused by various anatomical abnormalities. This is often due to an underdeveloped or missing fold of the pinna, which causes the ears to protrude further from the head than usual. An excessively large ear hollow, the concha, can also lead to an unusually large angle between the ear and the head, causing the ears to protrude visibly. Such traits can run in families and often affect several family members over generations.
Treatable problems with ear correction
Dr. Berkei’s ear correction procedures address a variety of problems that go beyond the mere creation of protruding ears. In addition to correcting “sail ears”, asymmetries between the ears can be adjusted, uneven ear shapes harmonized and even congenital malformations corrected. These procedures are not only for children, who often suffer from teasing, but also for adults who want an aesthetic improvement. The treatment not only improves your appearance, but also your self-esteem and quality of life.
Precise technology.
Your personalized treatment for optimal results.
Choosing the right method for ear correction is crucial to achieving aesthetically pleasing and long-lasting results. Dr. Berkei offers several proven techniques specifically designed to correct protruding or uneven ears. Each of these methods has its own advantages and special features that make them suitable for different patient needs. Whether using sutures, incisions or innovative clips, the options for adjusting the shape of the ears are varied and individual.
With the suture method, special sutures are used to attach protruding ears without the need for incisions. The sutures are subtly guided under the skin of the pinna to position the ears closer to the head permanently.
This traditional method uses sutures to place the ears in the desired position and is made possible by a discreet incision on the back of the ear. It has been used successfully for decades to correct protruding ears.
The Converse incision-suture technique improves the malleability of the ear cartilage through precise incisions, which simplifies the corrective procedure. This approach enables more effective and customizable ear placement by directly modifying the cartilage structure.
With the scoring technique, the ear cartilage is made malleable through targeted scoring, which means that no stitches are required. This method offers a less invasive alternative to traditional suturing by directly modifying the cartilage structure to create the ears.
The Earfold™ method corrects protruding ears by inserting a small clip through a small incision. This clip holds the ear permanently in the desired position and offers a quick and effective solution for ear correction.
The technology at Dr. Berkei
Dr. Berkei has developed his own technique for ear correction, which combines elements from various established methods. This includes the scoring technique according to Sternström, in which the ear cartilage is made malleable through targeted scoring, and the suture method, in which special sutures bring the cartilage into the desired position without the need for extensive incisions. In addition, a small strip of skin is often removed to increase the tension and secure the result. This combination technique, enriched by Dr. Berkei’s specific adjustments, ensures long-lasting beautiful and natural results with maximum safety and minimum recovery time.

Ear pinning surgery for protruding ears usually requires direct surgery on the cartilage using techniques that weaken the cartilage in the long term or remove parts of it. We perform ear correction either under local anesthesia or a gentle short anesthetic under outpatient conditions.
Ear correction, also known as otoplasty, is a surgical procedure that is usually performed under local anesthesia. The surgeon makes an incision behind the ear to reach the cartilage and reshape or reinforce it to achieve a more aesthetic shape and position. These corrections are fixed with internal sutures and the incision is carefully sutured to optimize healing. After the operation, patients wear a bandage and can usually go home the same day, although a full recovery can take several weeks.
Light earrings can usually be worn again after approx. 4 weeks.
We perform aesthetically indicated procedures on patients over the age of 18.
