Understanding ear wax
Ear wax is a natural lubricant with antibacterial properties, produced by glands within the ear canal. It helps protect the ear canal by trapping dust and dirt, while also supporting the ear’s natural cleaning process and helping to guard against bacteria. Everyone produces different amounts of ear wax. However, if too much wax builds up or is pushed too far into the ear canal, it can cause a blockage.
Reasons ear wax may need to be removed include:
- Temporary hearing loss
- A build-up of pressure which may be painful
- Hearing aids not working correctly
- The onset of tinnitus, or dizziness.
You must not attempt to remove ear wax yourself, as the ear canal is very delicate and can be easily damaged.
Our methods for clear ears
We utilise advanced and gentle techniques to ensure effective ear wax removal, tailored to your comfort and specific needs. Our qualified practitioners are skilled in various methods.
Micro-suction
A safe and precise method using a gentle suction to remove ear wax under direct vision, considered the gold standard for ear wax removal.
Warm water irrigation
A gentle rinse using warm water to softly dislodge and wash away ear wax, performed with care and expertise.
Manual removal
For specific types of ear wax, manual removal using specialist instruments offers a controlled and effective solution.
The most suitable treatment will be discussed with you during your appointment.
