Surgery Makes Us Happy

Microtia, What is Microtia? A common question for those who have new born children

. Microtia is a birth defect of the ear. Hearing can be impaired and surgery can be needed when Microtia has been diagnosed. Microtia is very common and yet not common enough that most parents have heard of it. There are 5 levels of Microtia. So when a doctor examines the ear of a child for Microtia they typically look for these things.

Microtia level one: The external ear has slight deformity. Microtia level two: The external ear has more deformity and the child has slight hearing loss. Microtia level three: The ear canal is exposed, significant hearing loss, and the external ear has serious deformity, Microtia level three is the most common of Microtia levels. Microtia level four:External ear is nearly gone by now. Microtia level five: The External ear is completely gone, hearing loss is at an all time high, and the ear canal is completely exposed. This common birth defect can be devastating, luckily surgery is an option.

If your child has Microtia I would consult with a physician to see if surgery is the rout for you. In most cases MIcrotia of the ear is something you'll want fixed for your child. The surgery is harmless and Microtia is hardly noticeable afterwards. Microtia before and after surgery is like night and day. In fact most surgeons will take pictures of the Microtia before and after so you can see the difference it made on your child or children.

Ear reshaping with this annoying birth defect known as Microtia would be a smart choice to those parents who can afford it. Let's listen to the testimonies of a few parents who had children with Microtia and decided to go with the surgery.

Kim from Salt lake city Utah said "When my daughter Karen was born, one of the first things the doctor told me was that she had Microtia, after explaining to me what that was I was told surgery was an option, and that reshaping the ear was low risk. So Hesitantly I said yes, and I'm so happy that I did because my child is beautiful, Microtia before and after was hardly noticeable." Daren from Denver Colorado said "After my wife had that baby we sat down together to discuss the hearing loss of billy, and whether or not surgery was an option, none of our previous children needed surgery nor had they had hearing loss, or for that matter did they have birth defects, yet our son billy's external ear was nearly gone and his ear canal was exposed. I was skeptical about ear reshaping because there wasn't to much ear to work with. Yet I was assured that surgery was safe and ear reshaping was easy, so we went for it, and we're glad we did because our child is a normal kid now." Microtia ear reshaping surgery is considerable option for all parents.
