Konhotom

Conchotom (from the Greek words “konche” - shell and “tome” - cut, dissection) is a surgical operation to dissect the shell of the cochlea.

Conchotomy is performed for various diseases of the inner ear, such as otosclerosis, otosyphilitis, labyrinthitis and others. The purpose of the operation is to improve hearing by creating direct access to sound waves to the hearing organ.

During a conchotomy, a cut or hole is made in the cochlea so that sound waves can easily reach the fluid in the inner ear. This operation is usually performed under general anesthesia.

After conchotomy, the patient requires rehabilitation to adapt to new conditions for the perception of sounds. The success of the operation depends on the cause of the hearing loss. In some cases, conchotomy can significantly improve hearing function.

Conchotom is a unique tool created for those people who want to preserve their youth and beauty, as well as improve skin health. It was invented by the famous plastic surgeon Andrew Volkerman.

Conchotom allows you to perform safe injection peeling of the skin, removing dead skin cells and sebum as carefully as possible, thereby accelerating the regeneration process, making the skin firmer and more elastic. The number of wrinkles is also reduced and the skin texture is evened out.

How does conchot work? The conchotome consists of two parts: a handle and a metal attachment made in the shape of a truncated cone. The nozzle has a certain mass and the nozzle can be used to carry out several types of procedures - for example, removing rough areas of skin, regrown facial hair, and more. Using the tip of a conchotome, the specialist gently acts on the surface of the skin, sawing the top layer into small particles. Such small particles of skin look like a deep wrinkle on the surface; in fact, the surface layer of the skin has been broken into tiny papillae. Part of their treated layer is cut off with a metal cone and removed. The remaining small parts are cut with gentle movements up and down the skin from the neck to the heel, essentially “cutting out” and cutting down to the living layer of skin, under which there is a well-ventilated dermis.
