// This study evaluated the effectiveness of EarBuddies® ear molding in 104 infants with congenital ear deformities, assessing short- and long-term outcomes through professional evaluation, parental satisfaction, and EAR-Q scores. High parental satisfaction was observed both shortly after treatment and long term, with best results in Stahl ears and helical rim deformities, while some deformities like prominent ears showed relapse over time. Treatment initiation age up to 12 weeks and factors like breastfeeding did not significantly affect outcomes. The study concludes that EarBuddies® is an effective non-surgical treatment for various congenital ear deformities, maintaining satisfaction over years.
