A method and an instrument serving for correcting the shape of an external ear, for example jug ears, lop ears, cop ears or Stahl's ears. Correction takes place by, from two sides, affecting a chosen zone of the ear (17) for a period of time with forces for giving the cartilage of that zone a permanent deformation. The instrument comprises a matrix (19) and a patrix (20) interconnected by a hinge (22) and made to, from each side, interactingly affect a chosen zone of the ear for a relatively long period of time with forces for giving the cartilage of that zone a permanent deformation. The hinge can by means of a screw (27) be fixed in the correcting position until the deformation of the cartilage is permanent. A deformed ear can by means o f the invention more easily and effectively than known per se be corrected non - surgically. |
