What is earwax?

Earwax or it's medical name Cerumen is a natural oil that is produced in the ear canal. It's purpose is to moisturise and protect the ear canal from dust, germs, irritation and even insects. In some situations, an excess of earwax may occur and people can suffer from discomfort or reduced hearing. This may be a good reason to have one of our trained clinicians assess your ear health and remove any excess if required using our safe and reliable systems.

What is ear microsuction?

Microsuction is one of the best ways to remove earwax. Once our technicians have assessed your ear canal, they’ll use a gentle suction device to remove any earwax blockages. This suction device acts like a vacuum cleaner, helping to loosen and  remove any impacted earwax. Once the procedure is over, we’ll use a Otoscope to check over your ears. Previously, using an ear syringe with water was a common way to get rid of earwax, however microsuction is a quick and much safer method.
