Ear wax is a natural part of ear health, but when it builds up, it can cause discomfort, muffled hearing, or even problems with your hearing aids. At St John's Hearing Aid Centre, we offer safe, gentle, and effective ear wax removal, carried out by experienced, HCPC-registered technicians, so you can hear clearly and comfortably again.
At St John's, we provide two trusted methods: microsuction and irrigation. Both are available at our branches in Grange-over-Sands and Edinburgh, or through our convenient Mobile Ear Wax Removal service, so you can get expert care in the comfort of your own home.
Microsuction is a modern, gentle method that uses high-magnification binocular glasses to give our audiologists a clear view inside your ear canal. A low-pressure suction machine with a fine, sterile probe is then used to gently and precisely remove the wax.
Irrigation is a gentle, updated version of the old "syringing" method. We use an electronic irrigation machine that pumps water into the ear canal at a controlled, steady rate to safely dislodge and flush out wax.
Your comfort and safety are our top priorities. You can choose your preferred method, or our technician will recommend the best option based on your ear health and history.
Appointments usually last around 20-30 minutes, and you'll often notice an immediate improvement in your hearing and comfort.
Can't make it to our branches? Our Mobile Ear Wax Removal service brings our expert care to your doorstep. Enjoy all the benefits of professional ear wax removal in the comfort and privacy of your home.
Don't let ear wax get in the way of your hearing or your comfort. Contact us to book your ear wax removal appointment, either at one of our branches or in your own home. Our friendly team is always here to answer your questions and help you hear your best.
