• This paper aims to systematically evaluate and synthesize current evidence on the different surgical approaches—ranging from traditional cartilage-sculpting techniques to minimally invasive methods—highlighting their respective outcomes, complications, and patient-centered benefits. By critically analyzing these variables, the study endeavors to provide a comprehensive overview that guides clinical decision-making, enhances surgical planning, and ultimately improves patient care in both cosmetic and reconstructive ear surgery.
