This product is a post operative Ear Protection and Ear Dressing design for Plastic Surgery and Mastoid Surgery. It was developed with , Director of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at Lenox Hill Hospital.
"After seeing the flaws in the Glasscock ear protector — what people were using before the Romo-Guard™— I knew that much more could be done to protect the ear after surgery. The Glasscock ear dressing is not secure enough to protect the ear. It has a tendency to slip which puts pressure on the healing wound. This creates a high risk for infection and necrosis — the death of tissue caused by loss of blood supply."
—Dr. Thomas Romo, III
