Cochlear Implants
All brands, all models
At Hello Hearing, we are proud to offer alternative options to traditional hearing aids in situations where they are likely to provide a greater degree of benefit. Implantable hearing technology is a rapidly growing area and in recent years there have been a number of exciting developments. Our clinic has no financial commitments or otherwise to any particular implant manufacturer, and unlike many clinics, we enjoy the ability to offer the most suitable device for your particular condition. We have strong relationships with a number of experienced ENT surgeons and can give you advice on the most appropriate path for your needs.
There are now 4 cochlear implant manufacturers with devices approved in Australia. At Hello Hearing, we offer all of them.
Cochlear Implant
A cochlear implant (CI) system helps to partially restore the sense of hearing for individuals typically with severe to profound sensorineural hearing loss where conventional hearing aids no longer provide sufficient benefit. It works by bypassing non-functioning parts of the inner ear and providing electrical stimulation directly to nerve fibres in the cochlea. A CI system consists of two parts: an externally worn audio processor, which sits comfortably behind or off the ear, and an internal cochlear implant, which is fully contained under the skin.
