Although less, but also quite frequent, are interventions aimed at repairing malformations of the external ear (ears collapsed, smaller than normal or absent), a category in which also come calls ears protruding (whose technical name is Hellix Valguf). The Berenguer doctor has explained that it is not a malformation, but of an abnormality, and the operation to correct it is highly in demand because in the society the aesthetics of the separated ears is not well tolerated and children who have them go wrong. Children’s plastic surgery although there are no statistics of how many children’s plastic surgery operations carried out in Spain, Dr. Berenguer has explained that in the Gregorio Maranon Hospital some 1,000 children treated per year. The best age to operate congenital malformations is important during the first year of life (the Protocol is three months), while if they are minor malformations, it is around six years. Malformations or physical documents don’t always have to cause a psychological problem in children, especially if your home live in it naturally. Sometimes the family atmosphere generates some high dense against criticism or ridicule that the child may receive, says the psychologist. However, those who take the decision to operate their children are parents, which, moreover, are those who must give permission.

Sometimes, the decision comes induced by the child himself, suffering the taunts of his college classmates, and often parents anticipate the desire for his son to protect him from a future suffering. After that the child is 14 years, doctors recommend that the decision be consensual. The psychologist thought before deciding what to titrate until the malformation or the dcto point affects the child and if the intervention has no risk and eliminates your suffering, later, although if you are at risk, I would think. The message that can only be is launching one feel good if you have no documents. That is not so and we have many examples; assume it is difficult, but possible, concludes this expert.
