Hi Magdalena:

It is true that the Freedom Implant system supports both the Freedom

processor AND the Nucleus 3G BTE. I forget what age your son will be at the

time of his surgery, but the Freedom processor is larger than the 3G by a

small amount. I actually think it sits more comfortably on the ear, but I

am an adult. What about the body processor? That would seem to be ideal

for a small child until such time the Freedom processor fits nicely on his

ear.

When the Freedom body processor is used, the part of the external headpiece

is even smaller than the 3G, plus your son would have all the advantages of

the Freedom processor system.

Just a thought and an option you might want to discuss with the surgeon.
