I had ear surgery exactly 3 weeks ago, my ears were not reduced in size- just pinned back. I am absolutely in love w/ the way my left ear looks- it is perfectly pinned,but my right side only seems to be pinned from the bottom half down. The top half is still slightly sticking out. I noticed his from then moment my packing was taken off and I saw my new ears. Could this be swelling or did my dr just do an uneven job? It almost feels like my ear doesn't even have stitches on that part.
