Bat ear is an inherited condition where one or both of the ears may not grow into the normal shape.  Often, the size, shape and position of the normal ear is most often a familiar characteristic.  Deformities of the ear are also of similar nature, including conditions, which present variations of cartilage and contour and the protruding ear, especially when both sides are involved. Children are often subjected to callous remarks, whilst adults may not express such attitudes openly, but instead harbour sensitivities that were present during childhood, often project feelings of self-consciousness, rejection and hostility. Surgical intervention is often very helpful in improving the ears and can be performed quite effectively as early as four, five or six years of age, although it may not be possible to achieve an entirely normal appearance, especially in the worst cases. In adults the operation is often performed with a local anaesthetic.   The operation is performed, by repositioning or otherwise altering the flexible cartilage structures.   The ultimate aim of surgery is to reduce the protrusion and at the same time, to provide a normal configuration when the ear is viewed from the side.   Incisions are generally placed behind the ear where any remaining surface scars are required; these are often placed inconspicuously within the normal contours.   Following the operation, a total head bandage (turban-type) is necessary so that both ears can be protected, swelling minimised and discomfort limited.   The head dressing is ordinarily worn for 5-7 days after which time the remaining swelling will gradually subside.   Thereafter, a headband (e.g. tennis headband) is worn for a few weeks at night.   Some variations in management should be anticipated, depending largely upon the specific correction undertaken.

Nose is the most prominent feature of your face, second only to your eyes. Its size and shape may be the most defining characteristic of your face. If you are unhappy with your nose, you are not alone. Every year hundreds of thousands of people through out the United Kingdom elect to improve the appearance and/or function of their nose through nose surgery or Rhinoplasty. Some people want a different size or shape. Others want to repair damage caused by injury. And some just want to breathe easier. If you have been wondering how nose surgery might change you looks, improve your self- confidence or your breathing; you should schedule a consultation with a qualified surgeon. The ideal nose varies form face-to-face depending on the skin type, ethnic background, age and other variables. During your initial cosmetic consultation, your surgeon will discuss other concerns about your nose, your expectations, and explain the probable outcome of your procedure. We will show you several before and after treatment photographs of patients having similar noses, and will explain the treatment you can receive. Before and after photographs will be taken to document your results.   Before making the decision to have rhinoplasty, ask your surgeon if there are any additional procedures that may enhance the effects of your nose surgery. Many patients elect to have chin or cheek implants to enhance and balance their facial features.
