Otoplasty revision?

Postby wanabee » Thu Jul 21, 2011 2:02 am

Hello dr, i had otoplasty 8 months ago but not happy at all with the result. If i wanted too, how soon after the first op can i have a revision? My ears are noticeably not symmetrical and I still think my ears sticks out too much for my liking. For me personally i like my ears pretty close to my head, that is my own personal preferences. Is a revision possible to pin them back closer? also i have big and thick ear lops, could ear lops be pinned back with the rest of the ears as well to match?
Thanks
wanabee

8 months is not unreasonable for a redo. i would have to see your case to comment better. you could post a photo here close up to help others or send me a PM. obviously, with any procedure (even with me) there is a chance for some relaxation in the ears.
best,
