Micro suction earwax removal is performed using a microscope and a medical suction device to suck out the wax. A very thin steel fitting is fitted to the end of the suction tube which allows us to gently suck out the earwax from your canal.
The first part of the process is to examine your ear using a microscope and using the low-pressure suction device, safely remove the blockage. If your hearing has felt like it has been diminished, we will perform a hearing screen pre and post removal to ensure the wax was the cause. We will also perform a tamp to check there is no fluid behind your ear drum.
