Abstract
The correction of prominent ears is a rewarding operation. When choosing a surgical technique, we prefer a cartilage-sparing technique to a cartilage-splitting technique to achieve natural-looking long-term results. In this article, we present our preferred technique of an anterior scoring technique combined with concha-mastoid sutures step by step.
