Recovery After Ear Pinning Surgery

While you will likely be up and around within a few hours of ear pinning surgery, a friend or relative will need to come and pick you up and stay with you for 24 hours. Medication will relieve any throbbing or aching that may occur in the first few days. Nevertheless, it is important that you take one week off from school or work in order to rest. Any activity in which the ear might be bent should be avoided for a month or so, and children should be careful about playground activity.

Your head will be wrapped in a bulky bandage for a week following surgery to promote proper shaping and healing. A lighter head dressing similar to a headband will then replace the bandage. It is important that you wear this dressing exactly as specified by your Toronto plastic surgeon, especially at night. The stitches used during the operation will typically dissolve within a week.
