Not many people know that some Hollywood actors and famous singers suffered from droopy ears. However, they quickly fixed this problem with otoplasty.
“Otoplasty means any kind of surgery on the outer ear. This includes a fairly wide range of operations – from the correction of a deformed ear after piercing or a congenital protruding auricle to complete recovery after injury or congenital underdevelopment, ”comments Mikhail Vladimirovich Ovchinnikov, a plastic surgeon at the Correct clinic.
The most common surgery is to correct the protruding ears and restore the earlobe after the piercing has been removed. As the surgeon admits, both men and women come to this procedure in equal numbers. And all due to the fact that men’s hairstyles are traditionally short and the defect in appearance always remains in sight.
Among the stars who made themselves otoplasty were Bred Pitt, Beyoncé, Reese Witherspoon, Julia Roberts, Rihanna, Katie Holmes, Kate Hudson… Some of them underwent surgery in early childhood, and their classmates did not bully them about their lop-earedness. Other celebrities still have complexes, for example, Julia Roberts almost never goes with a high hairstyle, but prefers loose hair to hide her ears, which already look quite normal.
