Artificial ear is a material that many ear reconstruction experts are willing to recommend, so it ranks in the lower position in ear reconstruction surgery. Yier, it has five shortcomings.
Artificial ears are easy to get stuck with dust and need to be cleaned frequently. Too many cleaning times will naturally lead to the fading of the prosthetic ear. In addition, artificial ears are generally made of silica gel, and silica gel itself will gradually oxidize when exposed to air, leading to fading. It is easy to fall off, which will cause a lot of unnecessary embarrassment in public. There is still a clear boundary between the prosthetic ear and the real skin, especially the prosthetic ear fixed by titanium alloy, and there will be a small pit on the head side. The color of prosthetic ears can't change with people's mood. Normal ears turn red when they are anxious, but prosthetic ears don't. When children are playing, they will inevitably bump into each other. After the recovery period, even if the child has some scratches or abrasions, the ear repaired with su-por biological scaffold or costal cartilage will naturally recover. When a child bumps, the false ear may fall off. Once it is broken, it can't be repaired by itself, so it can only be replaced. Author: Professor Amber.
Parents are concerned about their children, and they all hope that their children can grow up healthily and happily without deformity. But be careful when helping children make choices. For patients with congenital ear malformation, when the child reaches the age of operation, he can have a complete and healthy new ear through ear deformity correction surgery. Prosthetic ear is the last option in ear deformity repair. When it is really impossible to do ear deformity correction surgery, doctors will recommend using prosthetic ears for repair.
