Hello and thank you for your question. Thebest advice you can receive is from an in-person consultation. Based onyour photographs, you ear could be fixed at the same time as revision rhinoplasty. Make sure you specifically lookat before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgeryperformed by your surgeon and evaluate their results. The mostimportant aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommendthat you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon whocan evaluate you in person.Best wishes and good luck.Richard G.

Good Morning! I actually performws a correction of a bilateral Stahl's ear deformity this morning and performed a bilateral otoplasty on a 16 yo girl yesterday to correct her significant ear asymmetry. Ear surgery is complex. You should seek a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon who has extensive experience in both cosmetic and reconstructive ear surgery. Otoplasty to correct your Stahl's ears can be performed at the same time as your revision rhinoplasty. Whoever you decide to seek a consultation with, make sure they are board certified and have experience in both procedures. Good luck!

You would benefit from “scapha” reduction to reduce the height of the ear, which also may improve the “roll” of the helix.Sorry for a lot of technical terms. Talk with an experienced otoplasty surgeon.

Hi Golito7,It is definitely safe to use headphones, the buds or the ones that covers your ears, at 6months post otoplasty.
