My morning routine only takes a few minutes, But the real positive result is in the freedom it gives me, I no longer have to be concerned about where I sit in a restaurant, I no longer worry about first impressions meeting new friends and clients.”

I just wanted to let you know that my first week with the ear prosthetic has been wonderful! The fit and look is flawless! My morning routine only takes a few minutes, But the real positive result is in the freedom it gives me, I no longer have to be concerned about where I sit in a restaurant, I no longer worry about first impressions meeting new friends and clients. Working with you was such a pleasure, I felt a real sense of collaboration, you are a true artist, and a most appreciated perfectionist. Please feel free to give anyone my email if they have any questions. Thank you for all you do!      -Buzz B.

Buzz had microtia and had autologous ear reconstruction many years ago. He lived with the large poorly defined construct for many years until he decided to come up from South Carolina to have his ear prosthesis made in 2016. Buzz came back 5 years later to have it retinted and at the same time get a new duplicate prosthesis. Of course, we kept his mold safely archived as we do hundreds of others to make copies as needed. See that the new duplicate provided in 2021 has the coloration and skin texture to make him feel very confident.
