A member asked:
Can my gp prescribe dermabond or skin safe glue to hold my ears back i do not care if it is not a long term solution ?

No.: That would potentially damage the skin as well as hold the ears to close to the skull making them appear abnormal. An otoplasty can correct this situation and you shoukd see a local plastic surgeon if you would like more information sbout this procedure.

Absolutely not: Dermabond or skin glue will not address your problem. The actual operation which "pins" back the ears has shown to have recurrences so the glue will definitely not work. Lastly, where would the glue be placed?
