Is an otoplasty really needed for me?

My ears are a really big insecurity of mine and I don’t know if it’s really going to make a difference, and yes I did try to grow out my hair to cover them and it didn’t really work well enough.

I mean if it really bothers u go ahead it's like 3k and lasts 10 years so do it if you want to.

If it affects u mentally it's a different situation, for ur mental health it might be a good idea

It will.

Your bizygomatic width is already quite high, and flared ears just add more width on top. It probably tends to emphasize your lower jaw's slight lack of vertical development. Pinning the ears will probably improve facial harmony.

Note that you will have to wait until 18yo to get the surgery done. Most doctors will require their patients to meet this age threshold for optimal healing and results.

it's like 3k

Depends where he lives and has his surgery done. It could cost only a fraction of what you assume. It could also be covered by national healthcare, depending where he lives once again.

Pretty much CL already, oto would be high ROI. If you’re too high inhib though try Otostick, works fairly well but it can be painful taking it off and it pins the ears back too much imo.

No reason not to for you, easy plus and 0 risk and not too expensive

Not quite there yet I'd say.

First, a filter is applied to the picture, so we don't know what he really looks like. His nose is blurred out.

Then, besides the flared ears, his biggest visible flaw is the lower jaw's lack of height. The shape and angularity are very good, but the whole thing would need to be brought downward. Correct me if I'm wrong guys, but wouldn't he be a good chin wing candidate ?
Of course, it should be reassessed in a few years, once he's done growing and maturing.

Finally, despite the filter, we can see that the alar base is quite wide. Mouth to nose width ratio is only ~1.20, significantly below ideal range (1.4-1.6) — this assessment might be mitigated depending on his racial background. The whole nose shape might be flawed too. It would have to be reassessed with clearer pictures.


But, yeah, based on this picture, he has a great eye area, great health indicators, and very good angularity. If conform to reality, true potential to hit CL status.

I bearly ever use any filters tho I don’t think I used anything in this pic(not even makeup or something).
I know my nose is a bit wide I am using hydrocortisone rn but I don’t think I’ll get a rhino since my nose is straight from the side , and also I think it might look weird on me considering my ethnicity(Yemenis/kurd Jew). Thank you for the morph though I am still in puberty and I am using exogenous hormones I think might be able to get close to it naturally(chin).

Hmm. Not 100 % convinced, as it looks both smoothened & blurred. Maybe it's your phone or your edit app that automatically apply a filter, I don't know.

The side profile pic you just edited in your post has also a sus area :

Given your ethnicity, I think you can get away with a curved dorsum or a slight dorsal hump. You don't necessarily need a 100 % straight nose to look good. I'd even argue that some curve/convexity can add a masculine touch, on top of the ethnic distinction.

Anyway, I agree with your comment about nose width and rhino.
Just get an otoplasty when you turn 18yo. And wait until your early 20s to reassess your lower jaw (chin included).
Regardless of what you'll eventually do, I'm confident you'll be looking good. Enjoy life !

Update: Talked to my parents about getting otoplasty, my mom said she wanted me to get it done when I was younger and my dad persuaded her to let it go, now that I finally brought it up they both agreed with me and said that’s the one thing they will support me fully on getting so I already booked a consultation and I want to try and get it done asap hopefully I will be done before September and I will start 12th grade slaying since I am going to get my braces off over the summer and getting my teeth whitened(10 almost 12 tooth smile btw).
My hair is much longer then when I first posted the thread so it does cover my ears a bit but it still looks a bit goofy with my ears so hopefully I could actually get a shorter haircut for once and look more mature.
Sorry for the yap ty for reading❤️.
Side note I’m still going to get alar&tip plasty/rhino but I am saving that for like when I’m older.

It will make a huge difference in how you look, I´m actually getting the surgery myself in 5 days:)
