Is it possible to achieve the height & outside shape of my left ear on the right side? (Photos)

adel1989Oct 13, 2024
My right ear has a slight bend in it since birth and looks different from my left one. Is it possible to achieve the height and outside shape of my left ear on the right side? Who is the best surgeon in the DMV for this?

I believe you would only benefit from an otoplasty and do not need anything else done. Your ears are asymmetrical and one will need more retraction than the other. Best Wishes, Gary Horndeski, M.D.

A protruding permanent suture is a rare but manageable complication of otoplasty, and prompt removal by a surgeon is the standard and effective solution.

Aging is a common factor in the development of loose skin on the face and near the ears. Trauma may also be a factor. The excess skin can be removed.
