Ear still sticks out after surgery. (Photos)

Asked By:lisa82

My daughter (7) had recently received otoplasty 3 weeks ago, but her ears are still sticking out in the same shape. I know ears can spring back even up to a year after surgery but I'm afraid they will spring out any more! I don't know if I could persuade her to go through another operation. She is due to go to her consultant in 6 weeks time, should i make an appointment for earlier? The pics I've loaded are the day she got get bandages off but they have reverted back to the first pic but not just as bad!
