Hearing Loss

Closer to
the people you love

With Masterpiece

Feel closer to the people
and the world
you care about
most

Not being able to clearly hear those around you
can leave you feeling cut off from the world.
With accurate diagnosis and treatment,
that can change.

The cause and severity
of hearing loss

differ for every patient.

The symptom may be the same, "I can't hear well," but
the type of hearing loss varies: sensorineural, conductive,
or mixed.
Its severity also differs from patient to patient,
ranging from mild and moderate to severe and
profound hearing loss.

Masterpiece Hearing Loss Treatment

Common Causes
of Hearing Loss

Knowing the cause points the way to a solution.

Cause 1.

Aging

As we age, the auditory nerve and inner ear structures degenerate, which can lead to a gradual
decline in hearing known as age-related hearing loss (presbycusis).

Cause 2.

Noise Exposure

Long-term exposure to loud noise can damage the hair cells of the inner ear,
causing noise-induced hearing loss. Construction sites, concerts, and earphone use
are common causes.

Cause 3.

Genetic Factors

Genetic factors can cause hearing loss from birth,
and a family history also raises the risk of developing it later in life.

Cause 4.

Ear Conditions

Conditions inside the ear, such as otitis media, labyrinthitis, and otosclerosis,
can reduce hearing.

Cause 5.

Medications & Toxins

Certain medications or toxic substances can damage the hair cells of the inner ear and
cause hearing loss. Examples include some chemotherapy drugs, antibiotics, and diuretics.
