Regaining normal ear form through surgery

[watermelon09]

Hi everyone, I want to share about the surgery that I did like 5 years ago. I am born with ear abnormality that is called microtia. And today I want to share my surgery result. I do not remember in detail about the surgery but my surgery was done in 3 steps and the doctor use the rib bone from my chest to make the ear shape. Oh by the way the one who operated me was doctor Park Chul from BIO Plastic Surgery Clinic.
Even now, I think left and right ear does not look the same but at least I can feel like normal person. I was tired because I've always been bullied because of my weird ear shape that's why I asked my parents to do plastic surgery.
Here is my before and after pics:
Before:

And here is the picture of me now:

That is my right ear and this is my left ear:


Although I am not 100% satisfied but I think it is better than the shape that I had before. I hope my experience could help people in here who tried to find information about ear surgery or have the same condition as me.

@mlydzz Yes, I am very glad living in era where body or face malformation can be fixed.
