Children undergoing plastic surgery at a young age is often a controversial topic. However, in certain circumstances, deformities that cause the child’s peers to tease or bully him/her, reconstructive plastic surgery may be the best choice. Dr. Steven J. Pearlman performed ear surgery on a 7-year old girl who suffered from cup ears and lop ear. He understands that bullying at this age can affect the child’s quality of life and recommends the procedure to help her feel more comfortable around her peers. After surgery, the young patient is happier with her new ears and no longer fears being teased. Dr. Pearlman can provide further information regarding pediatric plastic surgery during a consultation.
