Revision otoplasty for Stahl's ear or helical rim correction? (Photos)

Question

I had otoplasty for right ear 1 month back..the surgery was about folding the helical rim(Stahl's ear)..after the surgery the surgeon has not yet done well.. now my ears looks unnatural and bump like structure in top on helical...I disappointed with this...so can I go with follow up or revision otoplasty?

I see the area of concern.  Even through you may be frustrated with your surgeon, I do recommend following up with him or her.  Be clear about what you don't like and see if your surgeon can offer you an improvement. In my practice, I want to know all patient concerns and do everything I can to address them.  I want patients to be happy, so if there is a problem I'd like to know about it.  Your surgeon likely feels the same way.  Best of luck!
