We routinely check our eyes & teeth. Why not our ears?

No two people - or ears - are the same
Every appointment begins with a thorough video endoscope assessment. We then recommend the most appropriate technique for your ear, wax and medical history.
EARWAX REMOVAL

Donna & Gemma
Safe. Collaborative. Effective.
We may use one method or a combination, always explaining the options and involving you in the decision.
Methods we use - treatment options
01. Dry technique
Microsuction
Microsuction is a safe and gentle way to remove earwax using a small suction device, without the need for water. It works like a tiny hoover, carefully lifting the wax out for a quick and comfortable experience.
It is often the preferred method for many patients and can be particularly useful where water-based techniques may not be appropriate.
02. Warm water
Irrigation
Ear irrigation (previously known as syringing) uses a gentle flow of warm water to remove earwax safely from the ear canal.
Despite common misconceptions, irrigation remains an excellent treatment option for many patients when carried out appropriately following a clinical assessment.
03. Precision removal
Manual instruments
Manual instruments are specialist tools used to remove visible earwax, often from the outer part of the ear canal.
They are frequently used alongside microsuction or irrigation to achieve the safest and most effective result.
