What Does Ear Wax Microsuction Involve?

During an ear wax microsuction session, the patient sits comfortably while the clinician uses a microscope to carefully view the ear canal. A small, gentle suction device is then used to remove wax safely and precisely. The procedure is usually painless and takes about 15-30 minutes. Patients can expect minimal discomfort, with immediate relief of blocked ears and improved hearing after treatment. The clinician may also use specialised tools to loosen stubborn wax if needed, ensuring a thorough and safe removal.

FAQ’s for Microsuction

What to expect

The procedure begins with a thorough examination of the ear canal using a magnifying device, such as an otoscope or a binocular operating microscope, to provide a clear and detailed view. Once the wax buildup is identified, a gentle suction device is used to remove the wax without the need for water or invasive tools. Unlike traditional syringing or ear irrigation methods, microsuction is a dry procedure, which significantly reduces the risk of infections or damage to the ear’s delicate structures, including the eardrum.

Who will benefit from this treatment?

Microsuction is particularly beneficial for individuals with hard or impacted wax, those who have a history of ear infections, or patients with conditions such as perforated eardrums or previous ear surgery.

How long will the procedure take?

The process typically takes only 15 to 30 minutes, and most patients report immediate relief and improved hearing.
