Microsuction
Microsuction is widely recognised as one of the safest and most effective methods for earwax removal. It’s gentle, precise, and offers instant results, making it a popular choice for people of all ages.
Safe and gentle
Microsuction is a dry procedure, meaning no water is used. This reduces the risk of infection and makes it suitable for people with sensitive ears or a history of ear problems.
Highly accurate
Using magnification and a tiny suction device, wax can be removed with great precision. This allows your practitioner to clearly see what they’re doing, making the process both safe and comfortable.
Instant relief
Most people feel clearer and more comfortable straight away. The procedure is quick, effective, and usually completed within minutes.
Ideal for stubborn or impacted wax
Even hard or deep‑seated wax can be removed safely, making microsuction a great option when drops or other methods haven’t worked.
Suitable for more people
Microsuction is often recommended for those who cannot have irrigation, including people with perforated eardrums (past or present), ear surgery, or recurring infections.
Clean and comfortable experience
There’s no water, no mess, and no waiting for wax to soften. Just a simple, controlled procedure carried out with care.
Irrigation
Irrigation is a gentle and reliable method of earwax removal that uses warm water to flush out built‑up wax. It’s a popular choice for many clients and can be especially helpful when wax has become too soft or too much for the ear to clear on its own.
Gentle and comfortable
Warm water is used to gently rinse the ear canal, making the process comfortable for most people. It’s a familiar and reassuring method that many clients prefer.
Effective for softer wax
Irrigation works particularly well when wax has been softened with olive oil or ear drops. The water helps lift and wash away the wax quickly and safely.
Thorough cleaning
The flushing action helps clear not only wax but also any small debris that may be sitting in the ear canal, leaving the ear feeling clean and refreshed.
A good option for suitable ears
For clients who don’t have a history of ear infections, perforated eardrums, or ear surgery, irrigation can be a very effective and safe choice.
Quick and efficient
The procedure usually takes just a few minutes, offering fast relief from blocked ears and muffled hearing.
Professional and controlled
Using the right equipment and technique ensures the water pressure is safe and comfortable, making the experience smooth and stress‑free.
Manual Earwax Removal
Manual removal is a gentle, highly controlled method of clearing earwax using specialist tools. It’s especially useful when wax is too dry, too hard, or positioned in a way that makes other methods less suitable.
Precise and controlled
Manual removal allows your practitioner to target wax directly using fine instruments, giving excellent control and accuracy.
Gentle and effective
With the right tools and a steady, trained hand, wax can be removed safely and comfortably, often providing instant relief.
No water needed
Because it’s a dry technique, manual removal is suitable for clients who cannot have irrigation due to past infections, perforations, or ear surgery.
Ideal for tricky or sensitive ears
It’s a great option when wax is close to the eardrum, when the ear canal is narrow, or when other methods aren’t recommended.
Perfect for small amounts of wax
If only a little wax needs to be cleared, manual removal can be the quickest and most efficient method.
Frequent need to turn up the volume
If you’re increasing the TV or phone volume more than usual, wax could be affecting your hearing.
