Ear Surgery pin back

Hi. I am a 17 ear old guy (18 in February) My ears stick out away from my head and I'm sick of it. I always have been but im finally thinking of doing something about it. Can you please leave the pros and cons of pinning back my ears? and what exactly happens when pinning back my ears? how is it done? Are there any other options? Just please leave me anything and everything that you know... I really need help with my decision.

I don't know a whole bunch about it, but, a friend of mine had it done 20 years ago and has never had any problems, and he likes the result.

Is there a way to soften ear cartliage and then wear something to make them lay flat overnight so that they stay pinned back. Serious answers only.

just use some super glue.

Has anyone ever got this done or anyone in your family? How did it go and turn out?

My mom and I have both had it, and it's great. Well, during the healing process it sucks cause you need to have this huge bandage around your head, but so worth it.

i am a boy with long hair who is getting a haircut soon (in the summer and getting it short) and recently i have noticed that my ears are not exactly big but they kind of stick out a little bit at the top of my ear. i want to find a way / method which will pin them back slightly without surgery . i do not want surgery because i do not feel as if there is a big enough need or want for me to get surgery to pin them back. please please please give me some suggestions on what i could do because its started to bother me now.i am also 16 years old. lol and please don't send me comments saying accept the way you are and accept the way u look etc etc etc. i just want a straight answer please (hope im not asking for too much haha) . so once again please give me suggestions and methods on what i could do to pin them back from home, thanks

Don't you get it, kid? It's too late now. That could have been taken care of when you were a new born. Surgery is the only solution. You are probably adorable, anyway. Who cares about a little ear on top.
