Ear wax microsuction
Ear wax microsuction is a procedure used to remove earwax from the ear canal. It involves the use of a gentle suction device that safely and effectively removes impacted or excessive earwax. This procedure is performed by a trained healthcare professional and is considered one of the safest and most effective methods of earwax removal. Microsuction is suitable for most people and can provide immediate relief from symptoms caused by earwax build up, such as hearing loss, pain, ringing in the ear, and tinnitus.
What is Earwax buildup?
Ear wax build up refers to the accumulation of earwax in the ear canal. The ear produces a natural wax, also known as cerumen, that helps to protect the ear from dust, debris, and foreign objects. However, sometimes the earwax can build up and become impacted, blocking the ear canal and causing symptoms such as hearing loss, pain, tinnitus, and ringing in the ear. Ear wax build up is a common problem and can be easily treated with a procedure such as earwax removal by a healthcare professional.
Ear candling in Battersea
Ear candling is an alternative method of ear wax removal that involves inserting a hollow candle into the ear canal. The heat from the candle is believed to create a vacuum that removes earwax. However, this method is not supported by scientific evidence and has been shown to be potentially dangerous, as it can cause burns, perforations, and other injuries to the ear.
For these reasons, microsuction is considered the best and most effective option for ear wax removal.
Ear syringing in Battersea
Ear syringing is a traditional method of ear wax removal that involves flushing the ear canal with water or other liquids. The fluid is intended to soften and remove earwax, but this method can be uncomfortable and even dangerous for some people, particularly those with perforated ear drums or certain medical conditions. Microsuction is considered the best and most effective option for ear wax removal. Microsuction uses a gentle suction device to safely and efficiently remove earwax, without the need for water or other liquids. This method is safe, comfortable, and highly effective, making it the preferred choice for earwax removal.

What is ear microsuction?
Ear microsuction can be likened to an ear vacuum. It is essentially the process of cleaning out your ear wax safely with a suction machine whilst using a microscope as the primary viewing equipment. The suction machine is used at calibrated pressure levels to remove ear wax safely from your ears. “Micro” refers to the microscope used to look into your ears during this procedure, while “suction” refers to the machine used to draw out the ear wax, hence “microsuction”.
Endoscopic wax removal is a more advanced option for looking into your ears during ear cleaning as it provides a real-time view of your ears. We always offer our customers endoscopic wax removal as a first option because it is the most advanced technique. Most of our clients enjoy seeing the video recording of the ear cleaning process. We use our CE-marked endoscope called VerifEYEd View.
What is the best way to remove ear wax?
Various techniques can be used for professional ear cleaning. The best technique depends on the nature of ear wax to be removed.
Our preferred method at Verified Hearing is endoscopic wax removal using a suction machine because this is the most advanced technique. However, in some cases, we would need to use a sterilised instrument, such as a Jobson Horne or ear hook, to remove the ear wax gently. Patients sensitive to loud sounds or who suffer from tinnitus may find the sound of a suction machine unpleasant. So, we tend to avoid using it in such cases.
Although ear irrigation is becoming less and less popular, there are times when this is the most suitable technique for ear wax removal. In such cases, we do not hesitate to employ it, using only the safest irrigation machine.
Does Verified Hearing offer children’s ear wax removal services?
Yes. We have a senior paediatric audiologist who is part of our team. We can safely clear ear wax from your child’s ear(s).
