What is Microsuction Ear Cleaning?

Microsuction is exactly what it sounds like: precise suction of the ear canal while viewing the area through a microscope (or magnifying device). It’s the most advanced method of ear wax removal, and in the past was only available from a specialist ENT clinician. Now, anyone can enjoy the benefits of microsuction ear cleaning, no referral required.

Unlike traditional methods such as syringing, microsuction is a quick and low-risk wax removal solution. You won’t need to apply drops for days beforehand, and the results are immediate.

Safer than traditional cleaning.
Dry ears = minimal risk of infection.
No pain, no mess, no fuss.

Eleanor was lovely and gentle when checking my daughters ears. She has had ear pressure and tinnitus since last year. While she's done all the GP and specialist scans and checks we tried earlab as last resort. While her issue is underlying in middle ear Eleanor was very empathetic, professional and gave advice on what else to try. Lovely staff and Eleanor makes you feel comfortable. Highly recommend and already have referred a new client. Thank you for your high level of care and service

I found the booking system online really easy to use. The information that i received was excellent in telling me exactly what happens, as i was apprehensive of having this treatment done. The staff were excellent and by showing you on the screen before and after painless treatment, i walked out of the clinic very happy and satisfied.
Thanks team!

I had a great experience for my microsuction appointment. Sabreena was very patient and helpful with answering all my questions and explaining the procedure and what to do after the treatment. I also got to see the results directly through the monitor and I'm satisfied with the result. Overall, it's a vastly better experience than when I had microsuction in another clinic.

What happens at my appointment?

To begin with, we use an otoscope attached to a camera so you can see inside your own ear canal, and we’ll examine your ears through special magnifying glasses, to assess exactly why you may be experiencing some discomfort.

If ear wax is present and is causing the blockage, then a thin tube attached to the microsuction machine is comfortably placed inside the ear canal, only making contact with the wax and never the client's ear canal or ear drum.  You’ll hear a slight whooshing or whistling noise from the suction as it removes the wax – this is normal and if it gets uncomfortable, just let us know.

At this point, you’ll usually feel the incredible relief of unblocked ears. Occasionally, if the wax is very hard, we’ll use other instruments to remove it along with the microsuction. Very rarely, you may need to use olive oil ear drops to soften the wax, before returning for a follow-up appointment.
