How We Remove Earwax Safely Using Microsuction

Expert Testing

Our experts will ask you about your symptoms to fully understand your situation. When you’re ready, we’ll use video otoscopy to see inside your ear and find out what might be causing you hearing problems or discomfort. We’ll then find the best solution for you.

Gentle Microsuction

If earwax is causing you problems, we’ll remove it during your appointment. Microsuction is painless, risk-free, and gentle on your ears. It’s also a cleaner, more hygienic solution than ear syringing that can be offered at our clinics or your home.

Aftercare and Follow-Ups

Should you need a follow-up appointment to remove earwax, we offer this free of charge. If you continue to have problems with your hearing, we offer a range of services to help you get your hearing back on track — we’re with you every step of the way.

Earwax Removal at Home

Most people have tried using a cotton bud or something else to get earwax out of their ears. We strongly advise people against trying to remove earwax at home — it can be dangerous and seriously affect your hearing.

Manually trying to remove earwax can push it further down the ear canal, making it more compact. Worse than that, it is possible to rupture your eardrum, which is incredibly painful.

Additionally, using an earbud for earwax removal will likely trigger your ears to produce more wax. We don’t advise using home remedies to treat earwax build-up and blockages. Instead, it’s best to leave this to our professional audiologists to restore your hearing with our risk-free microsuction earwax removal procedures.
