There is now a quick, non-surgical solution for those who feel their ears stick out too far, believed to be as many as 1 in 20 of us.Otostick is a small, practically invisible silicone prosthesis which keeps the ear close to the head using a specially developed hypoallergenic adhesive. It is discreet and painless, does not require a prescription, and can be used continuously, or just for specific occasions or to suit particular hairstyles.Created by worried mother Francisca Gamero, who was concerned that her young daughter's ears were becoming very prominent due to often being folded as she slept. She began to use plasters to hold them in place, then tried several other 'specialist' products but, while she saw improvement, she found them fiddly and difficult to use.Rather than simply giving up or waiting until her daughter was old enough for a surgical procedure to correct the problem, Francisca decided to create a better solution - Otostick. The design and materials were developed with help from University experts in Francisca's native Spain, with a unique hypoallergenic adhesive created especially for this product.Otostick corrects and prevents excessive separation of the ear, giving a very natural appearance. Each corrector can remain in place for up to 7 days if correctly applied, you can even bathe, swim and carry on with all your usual activities. They can be used as needed, are painless to remove and have no side effects or irreversible effects. Otostick can be used from 3 years old and above.Quick and easy to use, Otostick has an immediate effect, helping you and your loved ones to instantly feel more confident about your appearance.
- WHAT IS OTOSTICK? - Otostick is an ear corrector for adults made of medical grade silicone adhesive. It ensures each ear sticks to the adjacent part of the head by holding the ears back and providing a pain free and all natural appearance of the ear. It was created based on a necessity: to correct prominent ears (commonly known as "large ears") in a simple way, without needing plastic surgery or otoplasty.
- EASY TO USE & IMMEDIATE EFFECT - Fit for any occasion or activities, Otostick ear correctors are self care products that are easy to use, comfortable, and discreet as they are made of clear silicone. Following the placement instructions in the package insert is important to ensure that each corrector lasts as long as possible and that the position of the ears are optimal.
- APPLICATION & PLACEMENT - Clean the area behind ears with an alcohol based astringent product. Determine the exact point of placement before finalizing the position. Remove the protective paper from the side that goes on the ear and stick it on the ear first before removing the protective paper from the side that sticks to the head. Press the ear back against the head, taking care not to leave hair underneath the ear patch. Press for a few seconds to ensure proper adhesion.
- CONTENT & DURATION - Each Otostick Kit contains 8 correctors, recommended for use from the age of 3 years and older. On average, each ear corrector lasts for 3-7 days if applied correctly. Alternatively, you can use the correction patches for specific occasions where, in case of particular hair styling, the prominence of the ears is more notable. To prolong the effective duration, ensure proper placement on clean and dry skin.
- RECOMMENDATIONS - Wait 4 hours from application before getting the silicone patches wet, taking care to avoid activities that induce sweating or the usage of accessories such as masks, which may pull or rub the correctors. Between the removal of a corrector and applying a new one, it is advisable to let skin rest for a period of 12-24 hours. In this period, hydrate the area with a moisturizer. However, REMEMBER to cleanse the area thoroughly once more before applying a new pair.
