Ear Wax Removal - Micro Suction in action
Ear Wax Removal by D M Wayman

Producing ear wax is normal, natural and usually helpful in protecting your ears. It generally self clears but if ear wax builds up and causes a blockage it can cause discomfort, a feeling of fullness, temporary deafness, tinnitus, dizziness and be very irritating.

In the UK, NICE estimate that 2.3 million people a year have ear wax problems needing treatment. Around a third of older adults and people with memory problems are troubled by wax build up. Hearing aids and earphone usage can make people more susceptible, as it can prevent wax naturally leaving the ear.

Having your ear wax build up treated has become more difficult in recent years with GP surgeries no longer funded to provide the service and NHS audiology clinics often having long waiting times.

I can provide a timely and convenient solution in the comfort of your home with a visiting ear wax removal service. Wax is removed using Microsuction, the most up to date, safest and most comfortable approach. With this procedure I remove the wax with a tiny suction tube, under direct vision using strong illuminated lenses (loupes)
