What is the way to reduce the size of large ears, and is it possible to do so without surgery?
It is permissible to surgically reduce organs to remove disfigurement or defect, and it is even more permissible to do so through exercises or medications. This is based on the resolution of the Islamic Fiqh Academy, which permits necessary and needs-based cosmetic surgery to restore the shape or function of body parts to their natural state, or to correct congenital or acquired defects, or to remove disfigurement that causes psychological or physical harm. However, cosmetic surgery for enhancement that does not fall under medical treatment is prohibited.
