Photos - Lewin Ear Reconstruction

27 year old male who was born with normal ears but sustained an amputation of the left ear at age 17 due to a car accident. He had 5 rib cartilage surgeries to try to reconstruct the ear, but they were not successful. He desired a final attempt create a surgical ear using the Porous Implant technique.

Result is 1 year after one “salvage” Medpor surgery and just before a 2nd surgery for minor revisions.

As a microtia surgeon, Dr. Lewin firmly believes it is critical to be TRANSPARENT with surgical outcomes – NOT TO HIDE the scars, asymmetry and “imperfections” with special lighting, low quality far away images, or showing only the “best” view of the ears. All patients are shown from multiple angles of both ears and, whenever possible, a 360 degree video of the entire head is shown so the new ear can be accurately evaluated.
