    AbstractThe appearance and symmetry of the auricle is crucial for the maintenance of facial cosmetic harmony. The earlobe is considered to be an important attribute of beauty in most cultures, and earlobe decoration with color or earring is a common practice in many societies. A reconstructive technique for congenital or acquired deformity of the earlobe is described. In addition, the postauricular chondrocutaneous flap is very convenient for reconstruction of various auricular parts.
