Can Otoplasty Make my Ears Less Posteriorly Rotated So That They Get Closer to my Eyebrow Level? (photo)

Question

My ears are rotated in the posterior direction, I know it could be related to some diseases but from the exams I've had it seems it's just an external feature. Anyway would it be possible for a surgeon to change their disposition? Make them less rotated backwards and maybe a little higher so that they reach the tail of my eyebrows? It seems this would be the ideal aesthetic position for an ear. Thanks in advance

There are all sorts of procedures that we as plastic surgeons can do. We can affect the amount of projection, we can create folds and even create a whole ear if needed. Your ears are fine. As a surgeon, I would not do anything to your ears. There is such a range of deformities, both congenital and acquired. Look at some ear deformities and be thankful for your ears.
