Can you have an otoplasty (ears pinned back) when suffering from tinnitus caused by acoustic trauma?

Raikk
I have a 60dB hearing loss on my left ear and a little less on my right. I'm looking to get a simple ear-pinning surgery to my ears. Is the surgery going to have any further impact on my hearing? Is it related at all? I have not consulted any kind of doctor about this yet. Thanks.
