The authors introduce a simple and safe procedure to correct prominent ears with benefits including a resultant natural-looking antihelical fold and less tissue trauma. The distally based perichondrio-adipo-dermal flap seems to prevent suture extrusion and may also help to reduce recurrence rates. By forming neochondrogenesis which is stimulated by elevation of the perichondrium, this flap gives the promise of longer durability of the newly formed antihelical fold.
