Mr Gault normally undertakes set-back surgery (pinnaplasty) under local, general and intravenous sedation.  

His standard consultation fee is £240.  

 

Stick out ears only

The surgical fee is £3895 including one follow-up. The anaesthetic fee for a local anaesthetic (LA) is £375. Some patients prefer to have a general anaesthetic (GA), for which the anaesthetic fee of £425.

The hospital’s fee depends on which one you choose, but in every case an out-patient (Walk-in, Walk-out WIWO) stay is cheaper than a day case stay and in turn is cheaper than a one night stay.  It would be unusual to require a night’s stay in hospital.  Your hospital fee payment is made direct to the hospital. We have no sway over hospital fees, but the current approximate fees are as follows:

The cheapest currently available hospital charges approximately £2250 for a GA or LA DC.   The cheapest currently available hospital for an LA WIWO procedure charges £995. 

Hospital fees do not include painkillers to take home, but you would be much better advised to buy these over-the-counter because Paracetamol from the hospital is extremely expensive. Mr Gault prefers to leave an around-head bandage on for one week, after which sutures are ready for removal.  A headband should be worn at night for about 6 weeks post-operatively to prevent the ears being pushed forwards by the pillow.

 For GA surgery, you add together the surgical, anaesthetic and hospital fees, for example: £3795 + £425 + £2250 approximately.

For an LA, you add together the surgical, anaesthetic and hospital fees, for example: £3795 + £375 + £995 approximately.
