What is Microsuction?

Microsuction is considered the gold standard for treating ear wax blockages and build-up. This very simple and pain-free procedure is seen as the safest and most comfortable method of removing wax from the ear canal. Unlike ear irrigation, no water is required, which means minimal mess, and the procedure only takes a few minutes to complete and, in most cases, relief is instant.

Simple and Safe Microsuction Ear Cleaning for Children, Performed by Highly experienced Audiologist have over 25 years of experience in ear care for children.

The appointment time is 5-15 minutes, this is to ensure that your child is relaxed and fully at ease at all times.

The microsuction technique itself uses gentle suction to clean your child's ears and is much safer and more comfortable than all other forms of ear cleaning, including syringing and irrigation. A small, thin probe is directed at the ear wax and/or infection in your child's ear canal and then gentle suction is applied to remove the blockage.

With microsuction there is no need for pre-treatment, e.g. olive oil or ear drops.

1. Your child's medical history

2. Examination of the ear canals and ear drums

3. Gentle removal of the ear wax/infection with microsuction unit

4. Re-examination and final checks

5. Better hearing for your child and healthy ears

If it is not possible to clear your child's ears completely at the first sitting, e.g. if there is stubborn wax, or if the ear canal is sensitive, then you and your child can come back to see us for follow ups until the job is done.

We can clear the discharge associated with an ear infection to provide your child with immediate relief. We can also refer to GP or ENT consultant if necessary.
