Ear surgery is also called ear pinning, which is done to bring the ear close to the head or correct deformities. Pinnaplasty is defined as the correction of your prominent ears. Pinnaplasty procedure involves making cuts behind each ear. Then, the cartilage is folded or some of it removed or reshaped. Once done, the ear is held back to its new position.
