Yes. At Face Surge, Siliguri, our goal is to create symmetrical, naturally contoured ears that suit your face. The incisions are discreetly placed behind the ears, leaving virtually no visible scars.
The surgery is performed under local or general anesthesia, so there's no pain during the procedure. Mild swelling and soreness afterward are normal and usually subside within a few days.
The correction is permanent in most cases. However, following post-op instructions - especially during the healing phase - is crucial for long-term success.
