What is Ear wax?
Ear wax, also known as cerumin, is a natural substance produced by glands in the ear canal. It is a mixture of dead skin cells, hair, and oils and serves as a protective barrier against dust, bacteria, and foreign objects. The color of ear wax can range from yellow to brown and it is typically produced in small amounts, which is then naturally expelled from the ear. However, sometimes ear wax can build up, causing blockages and impacting hearing. In these cases, it may need to be removed by a healthcare provider.
Symptoms of excess wax buildup
Excess ear wax build-up refers to a situation where there is an excessive amount of ear wax in the ear canal, causing blockages and impeding normal hearing. This can be caused by a variety of factors such as using cotton swabs, hearing aids, or earplugs, as well as genetics and skin conditions. Excess ear wax can also cause discomfort, pain, ringing in the ears (tinnitus), and even infections. If left untreated, it can lead to serious complications such as hearing loss. In these cases, it is recommended to seek medical attention and have the excess ear wax removed.
Effective ear cleaning Methodologies
Effective ear cleaning methodologies can help to prevent the buildup of excessive ear wax and maintain healthy ear function. Three commonly used methods include ear syringing, ear candling, and microsuction.
- Ear Syringing: Ear syringing is a method of irrigation that uses a gentle stream of warm water to flush out ear wax. This procedure is performed by a healthcare professional and is often used to remove impacted ear wax.
- Ear Candling: Ear candling is a method of removing ear wax using a hollow candle. The candle is lit, creating a vacuum effect that is believed to remove ear wax. However, ear candling has been discredited by many health organizations and is considered to be ineffective and potentially dangerous.
- Microsuction: Microsuction is a method of ear wax removal that uses gentle suction to remove ear wax. This procedure is performed by a healthcare professional using a specialized microsuction device. Microsuction is considered to be one of the most effective and safe methods of ear wax removal.
Out of the three methods mentioned, microsuction is considered to be the best overall. It is effective, safe, and performed by a trained healthcare professional. It is recommended to seek professional assistance for impacted or excessive ear wax, rather than attempting to remove it at home.
Why Microsuction?
Microsuction in Hammersmith is a safe and effective method of ear wax removal performed by trained healthcare professionals. There are several reasons why this method is beneficial for those living in or near Hammersmith:
- Effective: Microsuction uses gentle suction to remove ear wax, making it one of the most effective methods of ear wax removal.
- Safe: Microsuction is a safe method of ear wax removal as it is performed by a trained healthcare professional using a specialized microsuction device.
- Convenient Location: Hammersmith is a convenient location for those seeking microsuction services, providing easy access to trained healthcare professionals.
- Quick and Painless: Microsuction is a quick and painless method of ear wax removal, making it a popular choice for those seeking relief from ear wax impaction.
- No Need for Ear Drops: Unlike other methods of ear wax removal, microsuction does not require the use of ear drops, making it a convenient option for those who prefer not to use chemicals in their ear.
If you are experiencing symptoms of ear wax impaction and are located in or near Hammersmith, microsuction may be a suitable option for you. It is important to seek medical attention for proper diagnosis and treatment of ear wax impaction.

Cassandra O'Leary2023-07-16So happy that we found this Audiologist. Excellent with children, very friendly and welcoming. Myself and my daughter are very happy with our appointment.
Eric Walter2023-07-12A great first time experience, very informative procedure and carried out the work in a first class environment and would definitely go back in six months .
Brython Caley-Davies2023-07-11
Simona Zajicova2023-07-11The doctor was very nice. He checked my son's ears, but there was no microsuction needed. My son had no earwax in his ears that needed to be removed. Therefore, I don't understand why I was charged £120 for something that was not done. In cases like this, clients should get some of their money back, don't you think? It's common in other clinics.
