Endoscopic Wax Microsuction
Microsuction is a highly effective and safe procedure for removing earwax using a gentle, medical-grade suction device. Unlike traditional syringing or irrigation, this method does not involve water, making it ideal for those with sensitive ears, perforated eardrums, or a history of ear infections.
The procedure is quick, usually taking just a few minutes, and provides immediate relief without discomfort. It is considered one of the most precise and hygienic techniques available, as it allows the specialist to see and control the wax removal process using a microscope or loupes.
Book an AppointmentManual Earwax Removal
Manual earwax removal involves the careful extraction of earwax using specialised tools such as curettes, forceps, or loops. This method is particularly effective for dry, hard, or impacted wax that may not be easily removed through microsuction or irrigation.
It allows the clinician to have complete control over the process, ensuring precision and safety. Manual removal is also a great option for individuals with narrow or sensitive ear canals, as it avoids using suction or water, reducing the risk of irritation.
Book an AppointmentEar Irrigation
Ear irrigation is a modern and safer alternative to the outdated practice of ear syringing. This technique uses a controlled flow of warm water to gently flush out earwax, softening and dislodging any blockages in the ear canal.
It is particularly effective for removing softer wax and is often recommended for individuals who produce excessive earwax. The process is painless and performed with specialist equipment that regulates water pressure, reducing the risk of discomfort or damage to the eardrum.
To soften the wax, a pre-treatment with ear drops is advised before irrigation for the best results.
