So this is what happens when you go to your local Sao Paulo cutter and ask him for an ear pointing and he doesn’t notice that you’re standing on your head, right? Gawd, I feel like this picture is a caption joke goldmine and I’m letting you down by only writing one. Anyway, what you’re looking at is an earlobe repair/reconstruction, where the first artist built it all pointy-like. The resultant upside-down elf was not too happy with that, so they went down the street to see Rafael Leão Dias at Dhar Shan Body Art in Jundai, who repaired it for them. It still looks a little wonky in the second picture, but it’s likely that the curve of the lobe will smooth slightly as it heals (and it’s certainly not going to be giving boners to gelflings with vertigo any more).

Oh dear. The first picture doesn’t look like it’s done correctly at all. A good surgeon should make your ear look better, not worse! That’s why I chose to go with Aurora when I got my Flesh Tunnel’s repaired. It healed beautifully and barely left a scar. Maybe this link will help some other people out there: http://aurora-clinics.co.uk/blog/face/earlobe-repair-surgery/split-earlobe-repair-all-you-wanted-to-know/
