Microsuction is widely regarded as the safest and most effective way to remove earwax. A low pressure suction probe is carefully inserted into the ear canal. Using a microscope for clear visual guidance, our trained clinician precisely controls the probe to remove wax safely and thoroughly.

A complimentary follow up or aftercare appointment is available if necessary.

Microsuction ear cleaning typically takes between 15 and 30 minutes. The duration may vary depending on the extent of wax buildup and whether one or both ears require treatment. In most cases, it is a quick procedure with immediate results and no downtime.
