Is there a way to change the ear angle only slightly? If so, how invasive and costly might it be? (photo)

My ears don't stick out hugely like some people I have seen who had their ears pinned back but the things is I am going bald and when I shave my head to become more comfortable with hair loss then I am self conscious of my ears as they become more prominent (I cant have a Hair transplant). Is there a way to reliably move my ears in very slightly (a few mm's only)? I don't want an unnatural pinned back look especially as they will be on display when bald.
