Auricular reconstruction is an interdisciplinary approach where multiple specialties play a vital role in the treatment provided to the patient. This article provides a comprehensive interpretation of the process carried out for the fabrication of a custom‐made prosthetic conformer for the management of postoperative contraction of a skin graft after ear reconstruction surgery—Brent stage III.
