I had an ear pinning otoplasty when I was in the 6th grade, I stopped boxing because of it but I am now a freshman in College and I am in the best shape of my life. I would like to start boxing again but there was also a problem with the surgery, as i had a medium case of keloids which required a second minor surgery. There is nothing I want more than to box again what do you guys recommend?

If you’re unhappy with the appearance of your upper ears, then cosmetic ear reshaping can be performed. It looks like the upper part of your ears is a little flattened out. By targeting the helix, the curved rim of the upper ear, this may be improved.
This is not a satisfactory surgical result. The edge of the ear, known as the helix, must not have a step in it. However, wait until three months have passed. If you are lucky, the skin of the helix in the upper part of the step will shrink. If not, you will have to have revision surgery done here.
Hi ghostgazing
Otoplasty (ear reshaping) is a cosmetic procedure that helps to recontour the size, position, and shape of the ears to result in a normal appearance. To learn more about this procedure, please visit our website.
