Overview

What Is a Micro-Chisel Exostectomy for Surfer’s Ear?

Micro-Chisel Exostectomy is a specialized surgical procedure used to treat exostosis, also known as surfer’s ear. Exostosis is a condition where bony growths develop in the ear canal due to prolonged exposure to cold water and wind, which is common among surfers. These growths can narrow the ear canal, trapping water and debris, leading to frequent ear infections, hearing loss, and discomfort. Micro-Chisel Exostectomy uses a small chisel to carefully remove these bony obstructions, restoring proper ear function and preventing further complications. As the best surfer's ear surgeon in Los Angeles, Dr. Daneshrad is highly skilled in performing this procedure, ensuring precision and minimal disruption to the ear canal.
