Dear Dr. Merck,
in 2000 I watched the television show "Stern TV" with Günther Jauch with your operation method as the topic. I was thrilled! I thought I've always been waiting for this kind of operation. My problem is that I don't have protruding ears, but I've always wanted to have my ears closer to my head. I have a round face and I would look better that way. I've tried it out in front of the mirror very often and I really think that ears closer to the head would suit the shape of my head better. Can you recommend your stitch method for this, and most of all, is this method possible for non-prodtruding ears?
Best regards
Manfred B. from Frankfurt |

Dear Manfred B.,
Normal ears, too, can be brought closer to the head with the stitch method developed by me. There have been a number of patients who did not have protruding ears. They told me they wished that their ears were closer to the head, and said they would never have chosen an operation according to the traditional method, because they knew that the risks were too high, but with my method this wouldn't be the case.
In most cases, I tried, but failed to talk them out of an unnecessary operation. They stuck to their wish, and so I operated on them. They were actually more satisfied with the new position of their ears. To cut it short, you have to know for yourself whether you really want this operation or not. If you do, it is possible. Of course, with your ears being in a normal position, I do not advise you to have it done.
Best regards,
