I have 'bat ears' & one ear is bigger than the other. Is it possible to make the larger ear smaller?

Asked By:DannySong in London, GB

Bat ears, LHS ear is more protruding (it is very obvious). I have approached the doctor regarding surgery and they're looking into it (NHS funding etc...). I know that both ears can be pinned back but can the larger ear be made less protruding (may be folded from the top?). I want them to be as close as symmetrical as possible.
