About Our Ear Wax Removal in Ashford

Regain Hearing is a network of professional audiology practices and clinics offering the latest in advanced ear wax removal with no syringing, discomfort, or residues. This means you can leave your appointment with fresh, clear ears and continue with your day.

Microsuction is a cutting-edge technique that utilises a tiny suction device, eliminating the risks associated with conventional syringing, with no potential of damage, irritation to sensitive ears or infection, as the device never makes contact with your delicate inner ear.

Alongside improved comfort and speed, microsuction is far more efficient. Although nearly 100% of clients experience immediate relief from ear wax blockages and complete removal of all problematic ear wax, we can arrange a complimentary follow-up treatment in the rare instances this is necessary.

Reasons to Schedule a Microsuction Ear Wax Removal Appointment

Ear wax is a harmless and normal part of the way our ears function and protects the ear canal and eardrum from dust, dirt, pollution and contaminants. However, when ear wax becomes excessive or gets compacted to form a harder blockage, it can play havoc with your hearing.

Attempting to remove ear wax at home is never advisable. Traditional approaches, such as using a cotton bud, inevitably push the wax further into the ear canal and can compound any muffling or distortion you’re already experiencing.

Professional microsuction is pain-free and gentle for the most sensitive of ears, and we’d advise you to book an appointment at your convenience if any of the following apply:

  • Feeling that your ears are full, blocked, or that you have something inside one or both ears that is affecting your hearing.
  • Sensations of sounds being muffled, hard to hear, or distorted – sometimes similar to trying to listen to something underwater.
  • Pain and soreness in either ear or indications of a possible infection, such as residues or discharges with an unpleasant odour.
  • Problems with vertigo, balance, and dizziness, where compacted ear wax can affect your balance or contribute to persistent headaches or chesty coughs without a chest infection or cold.

Once you arrive at our Ashford clinic, we’ll begin by taking a look inside your ear—rest assured, this is a quick and comfortable experience. Assessing the health of your ears allows us to confirm whether or not we can see ear wax or blockages and target those areas to ensure your microsuction treatment is successful.

If we don’t discover any wax, ear infections, or injury that is responsible for your hearing issues, we’ll reduce your consultation charge and advise you on the best treatments or medications to restore your ears and hearing to full health.

What to Expect From a Microsuction Ear Wax Removal Service

Microsuction differs considerably from syringing treatments you may have had before, and it’s always important to know what to anticipate and how the treatment works to alleviate any worries about what the process involves.

It’s common for clients with very sensitive ears to have had difficulties with syringing, where the injection of water into the inner ear can cause discomfort and exacerbate irritation and soreness linked to ear infections.

Some clients note a feeling of slight pressure, but microsuction is pain-free, gentle and incredibly effective. Here are the steps we’ll work through during your appointment:

  1. Consultation: First, we’ll chat about your hearing and ear health to fully understand any concerns or problems you’ve been having. If, for example, you are struggling with your hearing on one side, we’ll be able to target our evaluation to look for the specific causes or identify where ear wax blockages are.
  2. Assessment: Next, we’ll have a look in your ear to see if we can spot obvious issues and advise on any other findings, such as damage to your eardrum or infections that are impacting your hearing.
  3. Microsuction: Finally, we’ll use the tiny microsuction device, which uses suction to remove ear wax from smaller deposits to large blockages without touching your inner ear and without any fluids or residues.

Once your ear wax microsuction is complete, we’ll advise if you can do anything to promote long-term ear health or prevent similar blockages from occurring in the future.

Why Regain Hearing?

As an experienced audiology network, we know that ear wax is behind countless hearing issues, and leaving compacted ear wax to solidify, harden and worsen can have profound implications for your hearing and the long-term health of your ears.

Microsuction is the safest, fastest, and most reliable technique available. It is appropriate for clients of every age, including those reluctant to try an alternative to syringing or who have experienced discomfort during previous conventional ear wax removal treatments.

Here is a brief recap demonstrating why we always recommend microsuction over any other technique:

  • Safety: Because the microsuction tool has zero impact on your inner ear, it is proven to be gentle and sensitivity-friendly. It leaves your ears fresh, clean, and without any potential damage, infections, or irritation.
  • Speed: A full microsuction treatment takes around 30 minutes from start to finish, removing blockages and excess ear wax quickly and thoroughly.
  • Effectiveness: 99% of clients find that microsuction removes all traces of ear wax. In the very rare instances where a little residue remains, we offer a complimentary follow-up appointment.

If you are concerned about build-ups of ear wax and book a microsuction appointment, but we do not find any indications of wax, we’ll offer a reduced-price consultation and continue to evaluate your ear health to see if there are any other underlying causes.

Book Your Ashford Microsuction Ear Wax Removal Now

Microsuction is a safe and highly effective way to remove ear wax once and for all. It is recommended in preference to syringing due to its comfort, efficiency, and speed. Booking ear wax removal ensures your ears are clean, clear, and free of blockages, helping to restore and protect your hearing.

What Are the Signs That I Would Benefit From Microsuction?

Some clients have a history of ear wax blockages and are familiar with the signs and symptoms; in this case, regular ear wax microsuction is a great way to prevent blockages from occurring and keep ear wax in check.

For others, the primary indications that you have an excess or build-up of ear wax include mild and ongoing earaches, clogged ears that feel stuffy and full, changes to the quality of your hearing, often more so on one side, or ringing and buzzing in your ears.

The main reason microsuction is preferable to syringing is that it doesn’t include any liquids. A dry ear wax removal method means there are no risks or issues linked with injecting fluids into the inner ear, especially if you have an ear infection or injury that can be exacerbated by syringing.

Clients don’t need to prepare with drops, gels, or anything else, and they can simply come along to our next Ashford clinic, speak to one of our friend audiology consultants, and have troublesome ear wax removed in half an hour.
