all about
ear wax

Ear wax plays a very important part in protecting your ears; it is a substance that is secreted inside the ear canal and has cleansing, lubricating and antibacterial properties. However, an excess amount of wax in your ears can lead to pain, hearing loss, dizziness and in some cases tinnitus. Cotton buds – often used to relieve irritation – actually push the wax further down into the ear. Hearing aids are also a common cause of impacted ear wax. auris ear care uses microsuction, considered to be the safest, cleanest and most efficient method of ear wax removal. The very definition of 21st century ear care: ear wax removal in London, at a time and place of your choosing.

    how to remove ear wax
    using microsuction

    As medical professionals working in ENT we get asked “How to remove ear wax?” almost everyday. We only practice and promote microsuction as this is the most effective way of maintaining aural hygiene.

     

    what is
    microsuction?

    ‘Micro’ – because we use microscopes, ‘suction’ – because we use a finely calibrated suction device, to vacuum out the wax.

    Our microsuction equipment is the best in class. We use Carl Zeiss optics and suction units designed and manufactured by DeVilBiss Healthcare, who are world leaders in the production of medical devices for the ENT professional.

    Occasionally, when microsuction alone is not possible, we use a combination of fine instruments and eardrops; for example, in cases of impacted ear wax or removing a foreign body.

    The procedure will normally take a maximum of 20 minutes. The most you should feel is a gentle pulling sensation as your ear is being cleaned.

    Microsuction Ear Wax Removal

    why choose
    microsuction?

    We only practice microsuction, which is the NHS gold-standard for ear wax removal and is supported by NICE guidance.

    Unlike ear candling, syringing or irrigation, microsuction ear wax removal has a significantly lower risk of causing damage to your eardrum. This is because the procedure is performed under direct vision and avoids the use of any liquids at high pressure.

    The ear canal is a highly sensitive structure measuring approximately 7mm in diameter and 25mm in length. With such a small cavity to work in, microsuction above other methods has proven to be safer, cleaner and better tolerated by our patients.

    Once the procedure is complete, our patients notice an immediate relief of their symptoms and often an instant improvement in hearing, from the comfort of their home.
