What Is Earwax and When Should It Be Removed?

Earwax (also known as cerumen) is a natural, protective substance in your ear canals. However, if too much builds up, it can cause:

• A blocked, muffled sensation

• Hearing loss

• Discomfort or pain

• Feedback or poor sound quality in hearing aids

 

If you're experiencing these symptoms, it may be time for professional earwax removal.

Our Safe Microsuction Procedure

At Finchley Hearing, we use microsuction to gently and effectively remove earwax. This precise technique uses a small suction device to clear your ears.

​

Depending on the depth and consistency of the wax, we may also use fine tools or safe water irrigation to ensure your ears are thoroughly and comfortably cleared.

 

Before Your Appointment:
For the best results, we recommend softening your wax with olive oil drops for 5-7 days before your visit (unless advised otherwise).
