do I need otoplasty??

Postby ice1 » Mon Oct 10, 2011 1:22 am

Hi, do you think I need otoplasty and is it an easy procedure for my ears? How long does it take in general to do both ears? I think they are almost perfectly symmetrical at the moment so will this remain after the procedure?

i do not think you "need" an otoplasty as the ears are not terrible but i can improve them if you are interested. yes, this procedure is easy for me to do. they should stay symmetrical, obviously no guarantee per se but i work hard to make sure things remain as they were.
best,
