Ear Wax Removal

Microsuction Method

Microsuction is a quick, precise method that gently removes ear wax using a fine suction device. It is ideal for people with narrow ear canals, sensitive ears, or those who cannot have irrigation.

Ear Irrigation

This traditional method uses warm water to flush out ear wax safely and comfortably. It’s a great option for those with softer wax and no history of ear surgery or perforated eardrums.

Manual Removal

Manual wax removal uses fine instruments such as curettes or forceps to gently extract wax from the ear canal. This technique is ideal for removing smaller or stubborn wax deposits

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the signs that I need earwax removal?

Symptoms like muffled hearing, earache, tinnitus, or a feeling of fullness in the ear can indicate a need for wax removal.

How often should I have my ears cleaned?

The frequency varies, but most people only need ear wax removal every 6-12 months, or more often if they have excessive wax production, for example, if you wear hearing aids or ear plugs.

What is irrigation?

Irrigation involves using a gentle stream of warm water to flush out ear wax, using a specialised device.

Does irrigation hurt?

Irrigation should not be painful but some people may experience a feeling of fullness or slight discomfort as the water enters the ear canal.

What is microsuction?

Microsuction is a procedure where a gentle suction device is used to remove ear wax under direct visualization with a microscope or magnifying loupes.

Is microsuction safe?

Yes, when performed by a trained clinician, Microsuction is generally considered a safe and effective method for ear wax removal.

How do I choose between microsuction and irrigation?

Microsuction is generally preferred for its safety and effectiveness but Irrigation may be suitable for some individuals. This will be assessed by the clinician following an otoscopy examination.

Does microsuction hurt?

Microsuction is typically not painful, but some people may experience mild discomfort or a feeling of pressure, especially if the wax is impacted. It can also sound momentarily noisy.

How long does microsuction take

The procedure usually takes a few minutes, but it can vary depending on the amount and consistency of the wax.

What are the side effects of microsuction?

Side effects are rare but can include temporary dizziness, a temporary change in hearing, or minor irritation or bleeding.

Is irrigation safe?

Irrigation can be safe when performed correctly, but there is a risk of pushing wax further in or causing damage to the eardrum if not performed correctly.

What are the risks of irrigation?

Potential risks include infection, eardrum perforation, or pushing the wax further into the ear canal.

Does removal of ear wax only require one appointment?

Usually only one appointment is necessary, however, if the wax is too hard it may require softening with olive oil and another appointment will be arranged to carry out the procedure.

If removal of wax is assessed as not necessary, do you charge?

There will be a fee of £20.00 for the examination.

Is ear wax removal always necessary?

No. Sometimes the problem with hearing loss, pain or discomfort may be due to infection and conductivity problems behind the ear drum. In this case, I will advise you to see your GP, as this may need a referral to Audiology/ENT.
