Cosmetics
You really look great, and when you wear your hearing instrument you look even better!
There are lots of possibilities to wearing a hearing instrument.
It can enhance the way you look. You can match the color of your instrument to your eye or to your hair
color.
This way it looks like a natural part of your body and does not look like a foreign object but a fashion object.

Sometimes, a custom instrument may look better than a behind-the-ear instrument.
The cosmetics, however, depend on your taste and your particular type of hearing loss.
For custom instruments, you may not be able to wear the smallest instrument because generally
the greater your hearing loss, the larger the custom instrument must be.
Keep in mind that all types of hearing loss are individual and some must be handled differently than others.
If you have a "High Frequency" hearing loss, for example, in most cases you will not be able to wear a custom instrument because
of the "occlusion effect," but your acoustician will precisely determine this for you.
As you see, finding the right hearing instrument that is cosmetically pleasing in appearance and that fits
your hearing needs can get complicated. Working out exactly the right choice will have to be done together with your hearing health care provider.
