Microsuction is a safe, clean and painless procedure that removes any excess wax from your ears.
The procedure involves a small endoscopic camera being inserted into the ear to give our audiologist a clear view of the situation, before a suction device is used to effectively clean your ear.
At Hearing Therapy, we charge £70 for wax removal in one or two ears. If no wax build-up is found, there's a standard appointment charge of £30 instead.
This is our main method of wax removal, and consists of using a small vacuum device to suction out any excess wax.
It's one of the most popular options, and is safe, clean and painless.
Ear Irrigation
This method involves being gently passed through the ear to flush out your wax build-up.
It's no longer as commonly used a method as microsuction, and isn't suitable for patients who have conditions such as perforated ear drums.
Manual Wax Removal
A more rare procedure, manual wax removal uses specially designed tools to physically take wax from the outer ear canal.
If a wax build-up is particularly solid and deep, and difficult to shift, this method can be helpful.
