Microsuction Wax Removal
Microsuction is clinically proven to be the safest and most effective way to treat blocked ears. The session takes between 15 and 30 minutes and we examine both ears.
Unlike syringing, nothing is flushed through your ear and nothing is pushed deeper into the canal. Your clinician watches the whole procedure through a microscope, using a gentle suction device to lift the wax away.
Before we start, we examine both ears with a small camera and show you exactly what we can see. After the wax is removed, we check again so you can see the difference for yourself.
Microsuction is suitable for almost everyone, including hearing aid wearers and people with perforated eardrums where syringing is not safe.
Who it is for
If you are experiencing blocked ears, muffled hearing, tinnitus or discomfort due to a build up of wax, microsuction provides a safe and painless solution. Our clinicians offer same week appointments to quickly restore your hearing and ear health.

Questions, answered
Microsuction uses a gentle medical suction device and a microscope to lift wax out of the ear canal under direct vision. It is widely considered the safest method of wax removal because nothing is pushed into the ear and no water is used.
No. Most people describe a slight tickle and a soft crackling sound as the wax lifts away. The whole appointment usually takes 15 to 30 minutes.
It helps but it is not essential. If you can, apply two or three drops of olive oil into each ear twice a day for two to three days before your visit. Softer wax comes away more easily.
You only pay a £20 ear health check fee instead of the full removal price. We will show you the camera view, explain what we found and advise on next steps if something else is causing your symptoms.
We take care of your ears, so you never miss a moment
