Bent helix after otoplasty. Can this be corrected? (Photo)

August 12, 2015
Asked By:johnnyv69 in Arizona, AZ

This otoplasty performed about 7 weeks ago. I believe some the ear was bent somehow in the recovery room and was re bandaged 4 days later. I know it is still early but I can't imagine this bend is going to correct on its own. The right ear is fine. What can be done to correct this so that the ear helix looks more smooth and natural?
