Columbus Ear Surgery doctors

The incision for otoplasty surgery is carefully placed in the crease behind the ear in order to hide the subsequent scar.  Most of the time they heal very nicely and are very difficult to see because of where they are placed and because the ears are pulled back closer to the head so that it is hard to see the area where they are placed.  Although some people will know that you had surgery, they will eventually forget about it and chances are you will feel better about yourself.  There is nothing wrong with having a relatively minor surgery if it makes your feel better about yourself and improves your self-confidence.

Pixie ears can be a congenital condition or can result from improper positioning of the earlobe at the time of a facelift. In either case, correction can be as easy as a minor office procedure with buried sutures and minimal if any scarring. I would recommend leaving the 'normal' ear alone and only having something done to correct the pixie ear.

You are correct that your results will not likely improve over time. Even if the sutures pinning down the middle of your ears do relax over time, the top of your ears will still be more prominent than they should be.  Excess projection of the tops of your ears is easily seen in your picture, the bottoms are harder to see.  Correction of the upper part of the ears is usually done by re-creating the superior crus on the antihelical fold which is generally lacking or deficient in patients with prominent ears.  It appears in your case that this was not adequately performed and may need to be re-done but you should wait a few months before having another procedure.
