Will my ears go back to protruding after earfold removal? (Photo)

Marley123456
I have had the earfold procedure, the metal clips are very visible which is a shame because I love the shape of my ears now, if I have them removed will they go back to protruding or will they look different altogether? Also is it unhealthy in anyway to your body to have the metal clips in your ear?
