earStitch is suitable for all shapes and sizes or ear, and all degrees of prominence. earStitch can be used for subtle corrections as desired , but can also be used to set back very prominent ears.

Ear reduction surgery, to reduce the size and width of the ear, is a simple minimalist procedure. It is performed as a day case under local anaesthetic.     As can be seen, the helical rim is stronger in the surgically reduced ear, and a similar surgical approach can be used for patients with a flat helical rim whose desire is to see a this anatomical element of the ear strengthened.

Correction of droopy earlobes is a simple and safe procedure, performed under local anaesthetic which rejuvenates the ear. Mr O'Toole uses an approach to surgery which leaves the scar hidden on the lowermost part of the lobe, visible only from underneath.

Helical rim surgery, for a Darwin's tubercle, or any contour issue, can be easily and simply corrected with day case surgery under local anaesthetic.

Human bite injuries are common and victims suffer enormously as a result. Surgery, replacing the missing framework with rib cartilage allows for excellence in results.

Mr O'Toole removes hundreds of ear keloids every year in his NHS practice. He is now delighted to be able to offer this surgery to private patients, as well as long term steroid injections as required. His philosophy to preserve the shape of the ear is paramount.
