How Much Does Ear Reduction Cost with No Pinning Back of the Ears?

It sounds like you are interested in reducing the overall circumference of the ear rather than pinning the ear closer to the head. If this is the case, my office here in San Diego charges around $2000-3000 for that type of procedure. I wouldn't say that it is necessarily easier than a standard otoplasty. Recovery would likely take around 7-10 days before you felt comfortable in the public eye again.

This is not a commonly peformed procedure in my experience and typically is used for treating skin cancer requiring removal of the wedge shaped effected portion of the ear with closure of the remaining ear. It can vary in price from 3-5000 USD. 

The costs for otoplasty varies significantly around the country. Our
cost for otoplasty starts at $2800 + MD Anesthesia Related Costs (if
necessary). More expensive cities such as New York or Los Angeles or
areas with fewer board certified plastic surgeons may be more expensive.
One way to ensure the lowest possible costs and achieve the
highest possible quality is to locate a board certified plastic surgeon
who owns his or her own AAAASF nationally accredited center. Consult with 3 experienced and expert board certified plastic surgeons to understand your options.
