Is there a way to fix prominent ears without surgery?

February 16, 2017
Asked By:caringclementine in Toronto, ON

I am in my early teens and my ears really upset me. I can never wear my hair up without feeling self conscious. I read that wearing a headband when you sleep can help correct it. Does this work? If so for how long? Surgery isn't an option for me and I would really like it if there was some other way.
