Parents of children who are born with congenital deformities such as cleft palate or microtia are usually overwhelmed with emotion and unsure where to turn to help their children. A birth defect can be a stigma that new parents find hard to deal with. They fear what will happen when the child realizes that they are “different” from other children.
Dr. Mark Mitchell Jones of Atlanta Plastic Surgery Specialists has done over 500 ear surgery procedures using the time tested rib graft technique. Dr. Jones is one of the leading authorities on ear reconstruction and has created the Guide to Microtia to help parents understand the defect.
It’s important for parents to understand the options open to them when considering microtia or other types of ear reconstruction surgeries, including otoplasty. While there are several different methods for microtia repair including artificial implants, plastic glue-on or snap-on ears, we believe that the time tested, tried, and true sculpted rib graft technique is the best. It has the advantage of using one’s own natural tissue and is less susceptible to infection or rejection than an artificial ear.
Dr. Mark Mitchell Jones has had 20 years of schooling and training at some of the most prestigious institutions and hospitals across the United States and Europe. He also has over 20 years of experience in plastic surgery and is double board certified in plastic surgery and otolaryngology (ENT).
Ear surgery requires the expert skill of a plastic surgeon along with the understanding of the functionality of the inner workings of the ear. With these skills, Dr. Jones is uniquely qualified to perform quality microtia and ear reconstruction surgery. He has also developed proprietary methodologies to improve the rib graft technique and solve issues patient have encountered.
