Ear Surgery - Series: Aftercare
The ears are covered with a bulky, moderate pressure dressing following surgery. There is usually some tenderness and discomfort, that is easily controlled by medication. Most patients leave the hospital on the same day, or shortly thereafter.
Within two to four days, the outer pressure dressings are removed but the patient is asked to wear a light head dressing for two to three weeks to promote healing.
Faint scars are concealed in the flexion creases behind the ears; there are no incisions in front of the ears.
