Preparing for Your Visit
Attend Consultation
Before you can schedule your child's surgery, you will meet with Dr. Arturo Bonilla for a consultation. During this consultation, our plastic surgeon will examine your child's ear and determine if they are a candidate for surgery.
Receive Information
Before your child's plastic surgery, Dr. Bonilla will provide you with special pre- and post-op instructions. He will also go over the hospital stay and hotel arrangement information.
Amazing Results for Reconstructive Patients
Dr. Bonilla used this child's natural rib cartilage to reconstruct her ear. While this plastic surgery isn't considered cosmetic surgery, it does offer cosmetic benefits. In addition to improving your child's hearing and potentially their speech, ear reconstruction can also bring their facial features into better alignment and allow them to quell feelings of self-consciousness. Contact us to learn more about how this plastic surgery could benefit your child.
Paying for Microtia Surgery
We accept most insurances, but if we are out of network, we can negotiate a contract with your provider to agree to an in-network exception so your treatment is still affordable.
Because microtia surgery is a reconstructive service, your insurance should contribute to it. Our San Antonio office will submit all pre-authorizations to your insurance company so they understand that microtia doesn't just have cosmetic drawbacks, but functional drawbacks, as well. We can send them audiograms and photos of your child's ear so they understand the deformation.
Dr. Bonilla has dedicated his entire career of over 25 years to exclusively taking care of thousands of children born with microtia and atresia.
