Dr. Reinisch recently served on a committee for a plastic surgery-related PhD dissertation defense in Holland - remotely, of course. What a unique and beautiful experience. Congratulations to @clairevanhovell for completing her PhD and for a very impressive presentation and defense regarding microtia reconstruction! We are so proud of you, Claire! . . . #microtia #atresia #microtiaatresia #earreconstruction #plasticsurgery #pediatricplasticsurgery #paediatricplasticsurgery #h...olland #womeninmedicine #womeninsurgery #doubledoctor https://www.instagram.com/p/CGLZFdcDefO/

A happy update from Clive and his family!! We are so proud of him. He is going well at High school in Sydney, his ear is 2.5 years old, and he loves cooking with his brother, sister and Pug. All good here in Australia, but missing LA. We love It there so much. Hope to return to LA soon. We are so proud of Clive, too!! We reconstructed his left microtia ear 2.5 years ago. Congratulations on starting high school and what a handsome yearbook photo! Can’t wait to see him again ...and hopefully get to try some of that cooking . . . #microtia #atresia #earreconstruction #microtiaatresia #pediatricplasticsurgery #reconstructivesurgery #cooking #australia #puglife https://www.instagram.com/p/CBgaWQmjIR8/

A happy update from Elise and her family! Per Dr. Joseph Roberson - Atresia Microtia Surgery: "Meet Elise! She had right CAM (combined) surgery with Dr. Roberson and Dr. Reinisch in December 2018. She just sent us pictures of her beautiful ear and canal, now 14 months postop, and we couldn’t be happier with how things look. The last picture shows her hearing test results since surgery (she had a score of 9 on her CT scan, for reference)! The red line represents her preoper...ative hearing levels; the blue line (20/2/19) is from one year ago, about 2 months postop; and the black line is from May 2019 (6 months postop). As you can see, her hearing after surgery has improved from about 60 dB to approximately 20 dBWe could not be happier! With this hearing, Elise requires zero additional amplification or hearing devices, and is functioning excellently in school and life. This is what it’s all about. We are so thrilled for her! Also pictured is her new puppy 'Cisco' named after the city of San Francisco to commemorate her time in California around surgery. #atresia #microtia #surgery #microtiaatresia #microtiaawareness #microtiakids #ear #ears #earsurgery #pediatrics #pediatricsurgery #plasticsurgery #kids #operation #doctor #md #атрезия #микротия #хирургия #chirurgie #atrésie " See more

A happy (and adorable) update from mom and Hadyn: . . . Fifteen years ago today, Dr. Reinisch gave our girl a beautiful nose, removing her nasal tip hemangioma. I am still so very thankful and grateful for his work and expertise. It meant the world to us. She still has an incredibly beautiful nose. Thank you again.... . . . Many parents of children with hemangiomas, especially when located on the face, worry about their children growing up - thank you so much to Hadyn and her family for being willing to share their story. We treat many children with hemangiomas who go on to live very happy lives! A beautiful girl and a beautiful nose! Thank you, Hadyn! . . . #pediatricplasticsurgery #paediatricplasticsurgery #reconstructivesurgery #hemangioma #hemangiomas #kidswithhemangiomas #happykids #adorablekids . https://www.instagram.com/p/B-aQzeMDa4K/ See more

We are excited to announce the release of the Osia 2! This new bone conducting hearing device is made by Cochlear, the company which makes the BAHA. We expect this new device to be a great tool for children and adults with microtia/atresia, especially those with bilateral MA who are not candidates for canalplasty (we still prefer canalplasty, if possible). This new device works differently than the BAHA, which gives improved sound quality (especially in the higher frequencies...). The external processor does not vibrate and there is expected to be less scalp irritation. The external processor is wider, but much flatter and lighter than the BAHA 5 (see the side by side comparison photo). Because the Osia 2 does not stick out from the head as much as the BAHA, it stays in place more easily, and fits better with hats and helmets. It still uses a magnet to attach (the silicone portion and associated silver block are placed under the scalp), so nothing pokes out through the skin. And perhaps best of all, there is a waterproof case, so kids can swim or shower with it on. We can place the Osia 2 at the same time as the ear reconstruction, to avoid further scars on the scalp and the need for additional surgery. They will be available in the coming weeks, so stay tuned!

One of our favorite things is when our patients don’t turn to their non-microtia side anymore for pictures This is our beautiful patient, Ekaterina, and her new right ear at a masquerade ball! When she came to us, a major goal was getting to wear earrings at her prom. Very occasionally, the earlobe is a bit too small to pierce after the reconstruction, but it is usually not a problem - and we can pierce the new ear before you return home. Stunning, Ekaterina! 1 year post-...op right ear reconstruction with an implant. . . . #microtia #atresia #microtiaatresia #atresiamicrotia #earreconstruction #pediatricplasticsurgery #paediatricplasticsurgery #drjohnreinisch #reinischplasticsurgery #littleears #bigears #masquerade #masqueradeball #earrings #implantearreconstruction https://www.instagram.com/p/B8KzqkHnxw0/
