Microsuction Earwax Removal

Microsuction helps those who have excessive ear wax that is causing a blockage and resulting in a hearing loss or unpleasant feeling in the ear.

How microsuction works

An otoscopic examination will identify if earwax is causing any of these problems. Microsuction ear wax removal is undertaken using a microscope and a medical suction device, hence the term microsuction. A very thin wand type fitting is fitted to the end of the suction tube which allows the professional to gently remove the ear wax from your canal.

Usually microsuction does not need pre-treatment with drops, however, two days of Earol (clinically treated olive oil) is the best preparation. The Audiologist will examine your ear using a microscope and, using the fine low pressure suction device, safely remove the blockage. Also, using a video otoscope we will show you the condition of the ear before and after the treatment.

Why microsuction?

Microsuction is the safest and most comfortable method of ear wax removal, no liquids are used during the procedure, which means that there is no fuss or mess during the procedure. It is usually undertaken in a few minutes, making it a same day service.

The Benefits of Microsuction Earwax Removal

Completely Safe
Earwax Removal by microsuction is the safest possible way to do it, because the professional can always see what they are doing.
Quick Removal
Microsuction earwax removal is the quickest process for ear cleaning, usually lasting no longer than twenty minutes.
No Syringes
Syringing is an old out-of-date method of removing earwax. If you have a bad experience with syringing in the past you can be assured that microsuction is much more comfortable.
Safe For Perforations
Unlike ear syringing and ear irrigation, it is safe for people who have a perforated eardrum or mastoid cavity, in addition to any foreign object that may be lodged inside the ear canal.
