Frequently Asked Questions
Questions & Answers
Here are some of our most common questions:
When you book microsuction ear wax removal in London, you’ll be benefiting from the best and most efficient method of wax removal. Microsuction involves a tiny suction probe being inserted into the ear canal to remove excess wax – almost like a tiny vacuum cleaner. There’s no need to use drops to soften ear wax before microsuction and no water is flushed into the ear during the procedure, making it much faster and more comfortable than ear syringing.
Ear microsuction doesn’t hurt, but if you already have an ear infection and are experiencing discomfort in your ear, you may be more likely to notice the procedure taking place. Compared to other methods of ear wax removal such as ear syringing, it’s much more comfortable.
Although ear wax can have many benefits and is a normal part of human physiology, issues can arise when there is excessive wax production, or if the outer ear canal is not extracting it naturally, which can lead to symptoms such as hearing loss. When this is the case, it’s usually recommended that the ear wax is removed to see if this is the cause of the symptoms.
It’s important to bear in mind that symptoms such as hearing loss may be caused by middle or inner ear problems rather than a build-up of ear wax, so ear wax removal won’t always be the best option. In these cases, the doctor will discuss potential next steps with the patient, which might include referral for hearing tests, middle ear pressure tests, scans, or balance testing. The exact tests required will depend on the individual patient’s history and examination findings.
Microsuction ear wax removal is the safest and most effective procedure for examination and treatment of the ear when performed by experienced and well trained clinicians.
In most cases, it can take up to 15 minutes to perform microsuction on both ears. It’s important to keep as still as you can during the procedure to ensure it can be performed as efficiently as possible. The ear canal is very small and is in very close proximity to the eardrum, so even small movements can take the ear canal image out of focus and make the procedure take longer.
