My Ears Are Not Normal, is It Possible to Change Them? (photo)

Prominent ears are changed with an otoplasty. There is not a standard otoplasty approach so make sure you see someone with expertise in ear reshaping. Often times, otoplasty can be performed in the office setting with little to no downtime. see video

Thank you for your question. Although your photographs are limited, it appears that you have prominent ears that can be treated with an otoplasty. The incision is made behind the ears and the cartilage can be partially removed, sutured and reshaped to create a more natural shape to your ears and have them not project out so far. It is generally not a complicated procedure and can be done under just local anesthesia. Be sure to see a qualified surgeon who is experienced on otoplasty surgery. more

You appear to have prominent ears but the exact issue is difficult to diagnose with limited photographs. The ears can be safely reshaped with an otoplasty procedure. This can set the ears back closed to the head and create the natural fold in the ear which appears to be missing in your photos. I hope this information is helpful.
