    Area of Science:

    • Plastic Surgery
    • Otolaryngology

    Background:

    • Pixie earlobe deformity is a congenital condition affecting earlobe aesthetics.
    • Correction methods aim to restore a natural earlobe contour.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To document a simple and effective surgical technique for correcting pixie earlobe.
    • To evaluate the preservation of the natural free border of the earlobe using this method.

    Main Methods:

    • A simple surgical correction technique for pixie earlobe is described.
    • The method focuses on preserving the natural free border of the earlobe.

    Main Results:

    • The described technique successfully corrects the pixie earlobe deformity.
    • The natural free border of the earlobe is preserved post-correction.

    Conclusions:

    • This simple method provides an effective solution for pixie earlobe correction.
    • Preservation of the natural earlobe border is a key advantage of this technique.
