Judo Ear Correction is a medical procedure aimed at restoring the ear’s natural shape after repeated trauma, such as from contact sports. In cases where the cartilage has hardened or become deformed, surgery is performed to reshape or reconstruct the damaged tissue. This may involve removing scarred cartilage or using grafts to rebuild the ear. The procedure helps prevent long-term disfigurement, improves ear symmetry, and enhances overall facial appearance.

Judo Ear Correction involves making an incision behind the ear to access and reshape or remove deformed cartilage caused by trauma. In more severe cases, cartilage grafts from the ear or ribs may be used to reconstruct the ear’s natural shape. After reshaping, the incision is closed with sutures, and a compression dressing is applied to support healing and maintain the new ear contour.

1. Consultation and assessment will be conducted.
2. Local anesthesia will be administered.
3. An incision will be made behind the ear.
4. Deformed cartilage will be reshaped or removed.
5. Cartilage grafts may be used to reconstruct the ear.
6. The incision will be closed with sutures.
7. Compression dressings or splints will be applied.
8. Post-care instructions will be provided by the doctor.

Q1: What happens if a cauliflower ear is left untreated?
A1: If left untreated, the blood trapped in the ear hardens, causing permanent deformity known as cauliflower ear. Over time, this can lead to thickened, misshapen cartilage that may be difficult to correct and may increase the risk of infection.

Q2: Is Judo Ear Correction permanent?
A2: Yes, surgical correction provides long-lasting or permanent results. However, protecting the ears after the procedure is essential to prevent new trauma or recurrence, especially for athletes.

Q3: Will Judo Ear Correction affect my hearing?
A3: No, the procedure only addresses the outer ear (auricle) and does not affect your hearing or inner ear structures.

Q4: Is Judo Ear Correction painful?
A4: Most patients experience minimal pain. Local anesthesia is used during the procedure, and any post-procedure discomfort is usually mild.

Q5: What is the downtime?
A5: For drainage, healing takes about 1 to 2 weeks. After surgery, most people return to normal activities in 2 to 4 weeks, with full healing in around 6 weeks. Wearing a compression dressing and avoiding pressure on the ears helps ensure the best outcome.
