Ear Wax Removal

Earwax removal prices

If you’re not sure if you have an ear wax problem, please book a consultation with us. If you only have one blocked ear, please book an appointment for one ear (we will check both ears if necessary, but will only carry out treatment on the affected ear/s).

The final price of our ear wax removal service will ultimately depend on the level of treatment required. All prices include a consultation that will take place before any procedure is carried out.

Safe, effective ear wax removal

What causes an ear wax blockage?

Your skin glands produce ear wax (also known as cerumen), which together with tiny hairs forms a natural barrier to prevent dirt and dust from damaging your ear drum. The wax cleans, lubricates and protects the delicate parts of the inner ear.

Over time your ear wax should gradually move to the ear opening, where it can be wiped or washed away. However, many people produce a larger amount of ear wax that requires treatment to prevent blockages. A common cause is the use of cotton buds to clean the ear canal which results in wax being pushed further into the ear.

Do you require ear wax removal?

Excessive ear wax can typically leave patients suffering from dizziness, itchy ears, tinnitus and earache. However, in our experience the most common symptom that causes people to seek help is a loss of hearing.

Nothing makes us happier than a patient telling us their hearing has deteriorated and we find an ear wax blockage. We can tell them that there is a simple reason for their hearing loss and offer a simple, pain-free ear wax removal service.

Ear hygiene tips

The best way to ensure healthy ears is to use a soft cloth to clean the outer ear when taking a bath or showering. This will remove dead skin and any excess ear wax.

Please avoid using cotton buds, or other objects, to clean your ear canal, as this has the potential to cause long-term damage. Watch our video below to see how inserting cotton buds into your ear will only push and compact wax further inside. This can lead to blockages and the symptoms described above.
