Can ear tubes removal change the appearance of your ears?

No.
Absolutely not. Ear tubes are inserted on the ear drum which is deep inside your ear canal. Removal of the tubes should not in anyway change the shape of the ear itself.
No. Your ENT will do this not a plastic surgeon
Ear tube removal does not change the appearance of one’s ears.

No. I am assuming you mean a tube put in ear lobe or where? If it is the ear drum, same answer. You will have a scar if it is in the ear lobe.
No.
