Why Hearing Aid Follow-Ups Are Just as Important as Fitting

Getting a hearing aid is just the beginning. Learn why follow-up visits are essential for comfort, clarity, and long-term hearing success.
Once you’ve been
fitted with a Hearing Aid, it might feel like the journey is complete. But in
reality, the real success comes after the fitting. Regular follow-up visits are
essential to help you adjust, fine-tune the device, and get the best hearing
experience possible.
Here’s why you
shouldn’t skip follow-ups — and how they make a big difference.
1. Your Ears Need Time to Adjust
After getting a Hearing Aid, it takes time for your brain to re-learn how to hear different sounds. You may notice:
• Some sounds
feel too loud or sharp
• Your voice
sounds different
• Background
noise feels overwhelming
These are normal
in the beginning. A follow-up helps your audiologist make small adjustments to
improve your comfort and clarity.
2. Re-Programming May Be Needed
No two ears are
the same. During your trial period, our team may need to:
• Reduce or
increase amplification
• Adjust
frequency settings
• Fine-tune the
response in noisy places
This helps
personalize your device based on your feedback and daily experience.

3. Physical Fit Can Change
Over time, your ear shape may change slightly, or your Hearing Aid may feel loose or tight. Follow-ups allow us to:
• Check for
comfort issues
• Replace domes
or ear molds if needed
• Address any
irritation or pressure points
4. Hearing May Continue to Change
Hearing Loss can gradually increase. To ensure you always hear at your best, a follow-up involves retesting your hearing and adjusting the settings on your Hearing Aids.
5. Get Help with Cleaning and Maintenance
During follow-ups, we also clean the device professionally and check for:
• Wax blockages
• Battery
performance or charging issues
• Microphone and
receiver function
Regular servicing
helps extend the life of your device.
