I had bilateral otoplasty done a little over a month ago. The scars along the posterior incision area seem to be pronounced especially because you can see lateral markings where the stitches were. The PS used dissolvable sutures but they took around 3 weeks to fall out. I've asked some people and it's quite noticeable if they are standing a few feet behind me. Will this resolve on its own or what is your advice? Thank you.

I would recommend getting in contact with your primary care physician so they can run some tests to see what the headaches might be caused by. It is hard to connect the headaches and neck tiredness directly with the surgery that you had, but if a nerve was hit, that could be the answer.
Thank you for sharing your concerns with us You have a prominent ears due to poorly defined anti helix superiorly and deep conchal bowl. it is straightforward otoplasty to do under local anesthesia. Choose a board certified plastic surgeon and you should be fine. Good luck
There are no easy options/surgeries to increase the size of the ear. If the ear is cupped, there may be some options. It is difficult to say without photos
