Can Otoplasty be completely reversed 4 months post-op?

runnerunner
Hello. I had otoplasty September 2017. It has been 4 months of feeling extremely uncomfortable with the results. My ears have healed nicely per my surgeon, however, I feel they were overcorrected and I would like the sutures to be completely removed. What is the possibility of removing the sutures to bring me back to my original ears? My ears have felt so uncomfortable and I honestly feel that my ears were just to big in my cartilage area and the fold the surgeon placed there is too much.
