Ear Wax Removal
Say goodbye to blocked ears and hello to better hearing.
Our microsuction earwax removal service is a safe, gentle, and effective solution for clearing built-up earwax — carried out by skilled professionals using precise, modern equipment. We provide a free consultation, expert advice, and a service designed for your comfort and peace of mind.
What is Microsuction?
Microsuction is a modern, highly effective method of removing earwax. Unlike traditional ear syringing, no water is used. Instead, a small, medical-grade suction device is used under direct vision through a microscope to gently and precisely remove earwax. This makes it safer, cleaner, and more comfortable than older techniques.
What to Expect
Free Consultation: Your journey begins with a free consultation, where our trained professional examines your ears to check for wax build-up and ensure microsuction is appropriate for you.
- Ear Drops Provided: If your wax is very hard or impacted, we may recommend using softening ear drops for a few days to make the removal easier and more comfortable.
- Return for Microsuction: After softening the wax (if needed), you come back for your microsuction appointment. The procedure is quick, precise, and usually completed in 15–30 minutes.
- After the treatment, you’ll notice an immediate improvement in your hearing and comfort.
Why Choose Microsuction?
- Safe & Hygienic: No water is used, reducing the risk of infection and making it suitable for those with ear problems or perforated eardrums.
- Quick & Painless: The entire process takes around 15–30 minutes.
- Instant Results: Feel the difference in your hearing immediately after the procedure.
- Minimal Discomfort: Precision-targeted removal means less irritation and a more pleasant experience.
Free Consultation
We offer a free consultation before any treatment, so you can understand the condition of your ears and whether microsuction is the right option for you — with no obligation to proceed.

How to Prepare for Your Ear Wax Removal Appointment
For the best results, it is recommended to soften the ear wax before your appointment.
5 Days Before Your Appointment
- Use olive oil ear drops (or a medical-grade ear spray recommended by your pharmacy).
- Put 2–3 drops in the affected ear(s) twice daily.
- Lie on your side for a few minutes after applying the drops to allow the oil to penetrate the wax.
On the Day of Your Appointment
- Continue using the drops as normal.
- Avoid putting cotton buds, fingers, or other objects into your ears.
- Try to keep your ears clean and dry externally.
Important Information
- Softening the wax beforehand makes removal easier, safer, and more comfortable.
- Failure to use drops may mean the wax is too hard to remove completely during the appointment.
- If you have a history of ear surgery, a perforated eardrum, ear infection, or pain/discharge from the ear, please inform the clinician before your appointment.

How long does the appointment take?
Most appointments are completed in 15 to 30 minutes, depending on how much wax is present and whether one or both ears are treated.
