If you had this physical 'quirk' would you try and rectify it? AIBU and superficial?

[EarryMcCleery]

Firstly I am going to get these pictures deleted after a while as it's very embarrassing.

Ive always hated my ears. They are a weird shape. One is slightly better than the other as you can see from the pictures.

I debated for years before getting my ears pierced.

if you had these ears, would you seek correctional surgery?

Are they very unsightly?

I mostly wear my hair down.

Please be honest!

I wonder if this kind of surgery is even possible?

Thanks for reading.

I'm aware that there are more important things and that my hearing is perfect so I'm really lucky but...

[HaPPy8]

No way! Your ears look perfectly fine!!

[nennyrainbow]

They look completely normal to me! Admittedly, I can only see half an ear on the right hand enlarged photo but what I can see looks fine. Honestly.

[ChestyNut]

They look fine to me. I presume your unhappy with the outer shell bit?
I was born with a funny ear, looks like I've had an earring ripped out. Doesn't bother me, just one of those things that makes me, me.
If they really bother you maybe see GP for advice? But no if they were mine I wouldn't seek surgery,

[LyndaNotLinda]

Honestly? I think they're really pretty and delicate.

[EarryMcCleery]

rainbow that's all there is to my left ear

It's like the top of it was sliced off. It wasn't, but that it looks like.

[Kalispera]

It looks perfectly normal to me! I'm not quite sure what we're meant to be looking at.

[MidnightVelvettheSixth]

Hi, if I had your perfect hair & skin then I would not give a fuck about my ears :)

The right one is fine, the left one is also fine, if you want surgery to improve your confidence & self esteem then go ahead but I honestly don't think they are unsightly ...

[Flappyhat]

Your ears look fine and normal to me. Am I missing something?

[ItsAllGoingToBeFine]

I cant see anything unusual about your ears?

[ImperialBlether]

Unless someone has their hair cropped, I rarely notice anyone's ears. What do you want done to them? They look fine to me.

[witsender]

Nope, I wouldn't

[Gatekeeper]

they are lovely...like little shells

[StillStayingClassySanDiego]

No I wouldn't have surgery and if I saw you close up I really, honestly wouldn't have noticed your ear.

[Stevefromstevenage]

I think because it is your flaw it is noticeable to you but I can honestly say if I met you in person that would not cross my radar. I had one of those flaws growing up so I get it but no one ever mentioned mine either.

[8angle]

they look lovely - i would definitely not have surgery!

[GodImbored]

I know what you mean but they are fine. I have always understood why people get their ears pinned back (I know a lad who did as he got teased at school and did look better afterwards) but in your case I wouldn't do anything especially as you wear your hair down. I bet no one even sees them.

[DietCockBreak]

Your ears are fine, no way I'd have surgery for that (and I've had surgery for other stuff).

[OreosAreTasty]

Wouldn't even notice tbh.

[EarryMcCleery]

The top bit, in most people's ears is rounded, however mine is pointed.

I am really paranoid about it. If I wear my hair up I feel it's the only thing people notice.

I really want people to be honest as in real life if I ask anyone they say my ears are fine. I don't see how anyone can look at them and not see the slanted bit. I'm probably much more aware than other people of them though.

[Hockeydude]

Honestly, I would never think of it ever again. They are not remotely unsightly. In fact, they look pretty, as does your hair.

[GodImbored]

I can see it but I probably wouldn't look twice if I saw you with your hair up. It's such a minor thing.

[ItsAllGoingToBeFine]

DPs are like that with no "rim" at the top, I always thought it was one of things like whether or not you can roll your tongue, as opposed to some sort of dreadful deformity.

Honestly OP, I very much doubt that anyone would give your ears a second thought.

A quick Google suggests that in the US at least, it is a very common "corrective" surgery.

[SquidgyRedBall]

I didn't even notice and I was looking on purpose!

Absolutely nothing wrong with those lug holes.
