In general, the otoplasty process is defined to be a non-surgical and surgical procedure for correcting external ear defects and deformities. The defect can be structure and morphology of the external ear like damage by trauma, absent external ear, deformation, etc. The procedure used in the Otoplasty to correct the deformity or defect of the external ear includes the augmenting or shaping of the cartilaginous support framework of the pinna and others.
In the 5th century BC, the Otoplasty was developed by physician Sushruta in ancient India. The otoplasty process was described in the Sushruta Samhita for reconstructing and correcting ear, lips, nose deformed because of the amputations. In 1845, Dieffenbach demonstrated the correction of cosmetic Otoplasty and post-traumatic auricular deformity was explained by Ely, who worked on a wedge excision to reduce the ear prominence.
According to the Otoplasty Market Outlook report, the market for Otoplasty has a positive impact due to the availability of advanced products like tubings, malleable and adjustable splints that are adjustable to the shapes and size of an ear; and the increasing awareness. Moreover, the global market is projected to drive in the coming year due to the increasing acceptance of aesthetics and plastic surgeries and increasing per capita income worldwide. However, the intended audiences like global otoplasty solutions suppliers and manufacturers, academic institutes and universities, hospitals and clinics, and research and development (R&D) companies are supporting the growth of the worldwide market.
Allergan Aesthetics is still at the forefront of innovation in the aesthetics industry and holds onto high ethical standards. In response to this, in 2024, they rolled out the “Moving the Needle on Ethics” initiative that encompasses research and discussions touching upon the essence of ethics in aesthetic medicine. They also presented new clinical data about toxins and fillers during various conferences.
Individuality, innovation, and integrity were emphasized by Allergan Aesthetics at IMCAS World Congress 2024. They conducted several sessions as well as live demonstrations, which emphasized personalization of aesthetic experiences and ethics in aesthetics.
In June 2022, a surgeon brought up a specially designed external ear made through 3d printing within a facility. It was used as an innovative approach to assist a lady suffering from Microtia; a congenital condition that caused one of her ears to be deformed. The ear was produced by a 3D Bio-therapeutics company which specializes in biofabrication and 3D printing for medical implants. This novel technique allowed for tailor-making an ear exactly conformed to the patient’s individual anatomy thus solving her problem with better quality of life.
COVID-19 Analysis
In 2020, the introduction of restrictions over traveling, social distancing norms, lockdown, and shutdown impacted the global Market. At this time, all the surgical and non-surgical procedures relating to Otoplasty have been stopped or postponed for a certain period of time.
However, the major key players of the industry have played an essential role in enhancing the Otoplasty Market growth. They have adopted new strategies and measures to propel the performance of the worldwide market in the upcoming years.
The increasing prevalence of congenital ear deformities like hemifacial microsomia, Treacher Collins syndrome, and many more is one of the major growth driving factors for the global Otoplasty market. Moreover, the increasing trauma cases to the external ear because of the blunt objects, punctures, blasts, and damage is also contributing largely to the global market for Otoplasty.
In addition, the natural extremities and deformations such as constricted ear, bat ears,macrotic ear, cryptotic ear, Stahl’s ear deformity, question mark ear, etc., are also responsible for the global market growth in the forecast period. Further, the global market is propelling due to the increasing influence of the fashion and media industry associated with the greater deformities screening at birth.
