AbstractAfter the definition of the naturally-looking auricle, a combination of the well-known excision-suture, incision-suture, and scraping-technique is described. The crus inferior and the corpus of the anthelix are built by a bridge of cartilage, whereas the crus superior is formed by scratching the cartilage on the front side. The concha is made smaller by excision. This technique can be applied almost always: it is leading to a good cosmetic result and it is time-sparing.
