Risks associated with ear surgery including infection, bleeding, poor wound healing, asymmetry, changes in sensation, and rare complications such as keloid formation or blood clotting.

While some improvement in the appearance of the ears will be immediately noticeable after the dressings are removed, it may take several weeks to months for the swelling to subside completely and for the final results to become evident.
