Having the otoplasty first is how things worked out. For ref my otoplasty is a mix of cartilage removal & sutures. This other realself Q&A titled "Can an ear fold surgery & a lower facelift be done together?" mentions that during facelift ears have to be pulled forward so can stress ears. Some surgeons suggest doing procedures separately but most advise doing together. However no suggested time after otoplasty before doing full face and neck lift is mentioned.
