There are several available moulding techniques. However, commercially available moulding devices (e.g., EarWell and Ear Buddy) can be costly, and their alternatives have limited customizability. We present a technique using cost-effective and customizable materials for moulding common anomalies (Stahl\u2019s ear, constricted ear, and prominent ear). DuoDERM Extra-thin, Steri-strips, and 3M Kind Removal Silicone tape are used to splint the ear in a preferred position. The DuoDERM is rolled into a putty, placed in the ear, and secured with tapes. This treatment is initiated in the clinic, with weekly splint changes carried out at home by caregivers, and intermittent follow-up appointments. DuoDERM moulding is a safe, inexpensive, highly customizable, and simple way to correct auricular deformities. Primary physicians\/paediatricians should embed moulding into their practice, starting treatment as early as possible in the neonatal period.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/pch\/pxaa102","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,30]],"date-time":"2020-11-30T12:47:38Z","timestamp":1606740458000},"page":"270-273","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Correction
