How does a prosthetic nose stay in place without adhesive, glasses, implants, or straps?

For one of our longtime patients from West Virginia, the answer has been a uniquely designed nasal prosthesis that gently engages the natural contours within the nasal cavity itself.

We originally created his prosthetic nose in 2019. Since then, it has provided years of comfortable daily wear with only periodic color refinements performed through the mail. This allowed him to avoid repeated trips while continuing to enjoy a natural appearance and secure fit.

After more than seven years, normal anatomical changes gradually affected the fit of the prosthesis. Rather than continue making adjustments, he and his wife traveled to our Madison, Wisconsin facility where Clinical Anaplastologist Julia Schomberg created a new impression and began the process of fabricating a completely new nasal prosthesis.

One of the realities of facial prosthetics is that our faces naturally change over time. Weight fluctuations, aging, and soft tissue changes can all affect the fit of even the most accurately crafted prosthesis. Periodic redesign and refitting are simply part of providing long-term facial restoration.

The result is a new prosthetic nose that fits securely, looks natural, and feels like a part of him.

We are honored by the trust our patients place in us, especially those who continue their care with Medical Art Prosthetics for many years.

When someone loses an ear due to trauma, the impact goes far beyond the physical. It affects confidence, daily interactions, and the ability to feel like oneself again.

At Medical Art Prosthetics, we recently had the opportunity to help a patient who had lived for years with an unsatisfactory prosthesis. After doing his own research, he found our team and made the decision to move forward with a more refined, lifelike solution.

Over the course of several focused sessions, Anaplastologist Maddie Singer created a custom ear prosthesis designed to match his skin tone, contours, and natural anatomy with a high level of precision. Just as important, we ensured the fit and margins allowed the prosthesis to blend seamlessly and feel secure in everyday use.

The result is more than a prosthesis. It is a restoration of confidence and a return to normalcy.

For those exploring options after ear loss, it is important to know that highly detailed, durable, and natural-looking solutions are available.

We are always here to answer questions and guide you through the process.

Life After Rhinectomy: What Comes Next?

For patients who undergo rhinectomy, the end of hospital treatment is not always the end of the journey. In many cases, it’s the beginning of a new and uncertain phase.

What many patients are not told is that a nasal prosthesis can play a critical role in restoring appearance, confidence, and quality of life.

Anaplastologist Todd Kubon recently worked with a patient who faced this exact transition. In this post, we’re sharing his story along with a series of images that show the step-by-step process of creating and fitting his custom nasal prosthesis.

This is not simply about aesthetics. It is about restoring identity and helping someone return to their life.

You’ll see:
• The initial condition following surgery
• The detailed anaplastology process
• The final result
• And the patient’s own words about his experience

If you or someone you know is navigating life after head and neck cancer surgery, this is an important perspective that is often overlooked.
