Microsuction ear wax removal
Microsuction ear wax removal is a safe and effective method for removing excessive or impacted earwax. The process involves using a gentle suction device, combined with specialized equipment and techniques, to carefully and precisely remove earwax from the ear canal. This method is preferred over other methods such as ear irrigation or ear syringing, as it is less invasive and less likely to cause damage to the delicate structures of the ear. At Verified Hearing, microsuction ear wax removal is performed by a trained and qualified professional, typically an audiologist or an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) doctor. The procedure is quick, painless, and naturally relieves symptoms associated with earwax buildup.
What is ear wax?
Cerumen, also referred to as earwax, is a secretion produced by glands in the ear canal. This natural substance acts as a barrier, shielding the ear from dust, debris, and harmful bacteria. Despite its protective role, excessive buildup of earwax can result in blockage and impaction, leading to symptoms like impaired hearing, discomfort, ringing in the ears, and a sensation of fullness in the ear.
What causes excessive ear wax production?
Common causes of excess ear wax production include genetics, aging, use of hearing aids, ear canal blockages from foreign objects, and skin conditions such as eczema or dermatitis.
Symptoms of excess wax buildup
Excess earwax build-up can cause a range of symptoms that can affect hearing, comfort, and overall quality of life. Some of the common symptoms of earwax blockage include:
- Hearing loss: A blocked ear canal can lead to muffled or diminished hearing, making it difficult to hear people and sounds around you.
- Ear pain: Impacted earwax can cause discomfort, pain, or pressure in the ear.
- Tinnitus: A ringing, whistling, or buzzing in the ear can be a symptom of earwax accumulation.
- Dizziness: A feeling of unsteadiness or imbalance can be caused by earwax buildup.
- Fullness in the ear: A sensation of fullness or pressure in the ear can be a symptom of impacted earwax.
- Itching: An itchy ear canal can be a sign of excessive earwax production.
If you experience any of these symptoms, it is essential to see a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and treatment.
Ear candling in Kensington
Ear candling is not a scientifically proven or safe method for removing earwax and has been discouraged by healthcare professionals. At our ear clinic, we prioritize evidence-based practices and the safety of our patients. As a result, we do not offer ear candling as a treatment option.
Ear syringing in Kensington
Ear syringing, also known as ear irrigation, is a procedure in which water or a saline solution is used to flush out earwax. While it was previously a common practice, ear syringing has fallen out of favour in recent years due to concerns about its safety and effectiveness. In addition, more effective and less invasive methods for removing earwax, such as microsuction are now available. At our ear clinic, we prioritize evidence-based practice and the safety of our patients. As a result, we do not offer ear syringing as a treatment option.

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.
