HearPeers Heroes Mary Featherston Posted October 5, 2018 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted October 5, 2018 Wow, @Kara of Canada - that explains a lot. I wondered why only the bottom edge of my implant is flush to the side of my head - I had the idea that they did more drilling for the whole implant, but all they're really doing is enough to ensure that it won't move, and drilling for the pins. No wonder the incision is so short! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HearPeers Heroes Kara of Canada Posted October 6, 2018 Author HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted October 6, 2018 I was thinking the pins would be pushing against the skin but they are under the implant itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That part I knew because I downloaded the surgical protocol right after my surgery. (Yes, I'm a geek). But for some reason I was imagining that the drilling was more extensive.

HearPeers Heroes Megan L. Posted November 6, 2018 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted November 6, 2018 Very interesting! I wondered how they did the pins...I even tried to feel them out. Never found them and now I know why ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
