But when i look my ears the right one was perfect but the left one on the top its more close to the head and they dont look symmetrical.

Early ear asymmetry

Early ear asymmetry is very different from long term ear asymmetry. Give your ears some time and the ears will change from the current position, hopefully to a more symmetric appearance. see video
