New Teen Trend: Elf Ears

The latest shocking trend? Ear sculpting! Why is this bizarre practice getting so popular? According to Dr. Lajos Nagy, a New York plastic surgeon: “Sculpted ears not only enhance the attractiveness of the face, but also improve the experience of listening to music.” Maybe the doctor needs to buy himself some Bose speakers.

Whatever the reason, the surgical procedure has been slowly catching on with the young and daring. Body modification artist Russ Foxx has been sculpting ears for years and will only perform the operation on 18-year-olds or older, according to Shaughnessy Keely, a rep from his piercing shop, The Fall. ”He’ll do a few sessions and he’ll sculpt your ear and make it pointy.”

well this is…different? first time i’ve heard of it.
