Ear Wax Removal

We are still providing ear wax removal services for clients who have not been referred to an ENT and are unable to access or unsuitable for water syringing. In-clinic ear wax removal is suitable for clients with impacted wax from using cotton buds, those who regularly use earplugs or hearing aids, and for people who are not allowed water syringing due to perforated eardrums or previous surgery.  We use Micro-suctioning, wax curettes and gentle syringing based on what the situation requires. Priced at $110 or $100 for pensioners and healthcare cards

* No GP referral required   Children over 10 years of age*

Please note that many people will never have issues with ear wax accumulation as it should naturally be expelled from the ear canal.

Our facilities include all current methods of wax removal with the world standard in binocular microscope.

Combined with fully adjustable examination couch to allow our clinicians clear and safe access to the ear canals, we can provide you with an efficient and effective service from staff who have specialised ear knowledge.

We look down your ear canals using Vorotek head mounted binocular microscope to assess the build-up and type of debris before deciding the best initial method for extraction.

Micro-suctioning of ear canals

This procedure involves the use of micro-suction unit which makes a noise similar to a quiet vacuum cleaner as it removes debris from the ear canal. Brushing the canal walls can be slightly uncomfortable however it is a fast, safe and effective relief for blocked ears especially when it is affecting your hearing levels or causing a hearing aid to whistle. The fact that we are not introducing any liquids into the ear and have clear vision of what we are doing makes this procedure exceptionally safe.

Other methods

We may also use wax picks, alligator forceps and curettes to remove debris when it is more efficient.
