What is Ear Microsuction?
Ear Microsuction is the most effective and safest form of earwax removal as it avoids touching the sensitive area around the ear canal and evades contact with the ear drum.
A low pressure suction probe is used to gently and safely remove earwax. This technique of ear wax removal does not use high pressure water unlike ‘syringing’, therefore allowing Microsuction to be the safest, fastest and cleanest method of choice.
How should you prepare for your Ear Microsuction appointment?
It is strongly advised that you instil one to two drops of olive oil drops into the affected ear/s, for at least two to three days prior to your appointment. Please do not apply olive oil drops on the same day as your treatment.
What will happen during the appointment?
- A comprehensive medical history will be taken
- Microscopic examination of the inner ear canals and ear drums
- Gentle removal of the earwax with a surgical Microsuction unit. The Pharmacist will wear a pair of illuminated microscopes, namely “loupes”, and air will be heard rushing through the suction wand during the procedure. There may be an occasional mild ‘pop’ as the wax is sucked through the probe. Generally, the appointment will be painless.
- Better hearing and healthy ears
