Is a revision required? Unnatural anti helix post op (Photo)

Question

Hi, would a revision be necessary. Following a unilateral procedure. The antihelix looks unnatural. Please share your advice? I am 3 weeks post op. Please see photos attached

Leila Kasrai, MD, FRCSC · Answer

You are early on in your recovery. Please allow about 3-6 months or so for any swelling to subside before assessing your results. At that point, if you still dislike your results, please return to your surgeon to discuss, specifying what you’re concerned about. Revision surgery may be an option.

Gary M. Horndeski, MD · Answer

At 3 weeks, there is still swelling present.  You cannot make any final decisions at this time.  You need to wait 6 months for all the swelling to go down before making any decisions on possible revision.

Best Wishes,

Gary Horndeski, M.D.
