How Is Ear Surgery Performed?
Ear reshaping surgery is completed using a form of anesthesia. In most cases, the incision is placed around the back portion of the ear or inside the inner ear. During this procedure, cartilage will be reshaped to create a smaller or larger appearance. It is usual for each ear to be altered during the surgical procedure to ensure they appear balanced. After the procedure, the incisions are safely stitched together with sutures and wrapped so they can remain safeguarded for healing.

Plastic Surgery of Tuscaloosa Reviews
This surgeon is amazing! Very skilled in what he does, very knowledgeable, and his staff is very helpful and very very professional. He was able to get my procedure covered by my medical insurance, which cut his payment down to very little! But you would think I paid $1 million based on the treatment, and the courtesy and concern that all have demonstrated during my procedure and recovery. I traveled from out of state to have this procedure and honestly, I don’t think I would’ve found a greater experience than I found at Plastic Surgery Of Tuscaloosa and Doctor Bunch! He definitely cares about what you care about!!!
Dr. Bunch has proven his self noteworthy with me. He has the ability to transform lives as I know it! I suffer from a metabolic syndrome and even with diet and exercise I would have not been able to alleviate the excessive fat and skin from my body. I lost 65 pounds and due to my apron developing a rash and no relief of cream, it was deemed medically necessary to have the excess skin and fat removed from my abdomen. Dr. Bunch made me feel comfortable and like family. He ensured he would take care of me and he did. I’m truly thankful for his gift of surgery on my body because he truly transformed and addressed the health issues I was dealing with. I hope this encourages anyone who is searching for relief to try him. You have found the right answer you have been looking for!
Dr. Bunch listens to your concerns and is nice. I’ve experienced speaking with another plastic surgeon and he was rude and made me feel worse about myself, but Dr. Bunch is very professional but also helps you realize what your concerns are and makes me feel better about myself and the results I can achieve. I would definitely refer him as your Plastic Surgeon.
Office and Staff are Great!! Wonderful Atmosphere!! Doctor was very Nice and personable.
I joined a non doctor specific Facebook group, and it quickly became crystal clear that Dr. Bunch is who I'd be trusting to care for me. From my consultation to my surgical aftercare, he and his staff have treated me well.
