I did a otoplasty surgery for one ear my ear was over corrected I doesn't want the shape to be modified but it is modified beyond recognition deeply depressed with results .Atleast if previous patients before after was shown I wouldn't have done it cartilage removed badly even in one ear otoplasty ear .ear now become very weak and smaller than other ,lost elasticity and gone out of angle and shape so bad to look now.atleast earlier ear was little big but position and shape is good.now it is in bad shape and position.cant able to see it.right ear is hanging up back in tilted angle and natural and operated right ear is straight and in different angle.operated ear is almost dead.waited 6 weeks no improvement
