Hello. I wanted otoplasty done for a couple of years, and finaly last week I had surgery. It went ok, not much pain and it lasted about 75 min. Operation was done on March 19th. Yesterday, I went to change my bandage, and I had the chance to see my new ears. I know it is early but to me this looks way overcorrected. I cant even see the separation between ears and head. I dont know which method was used to perform the surgery. Today is my 8th day after surgery, and stiches will be removed in 12 days.
