You will be greeted by The Ear Specialist team and invited to tell us about the problems you are experiencing with your ears.
During the consultation, we will examine your ears, take photographs where necessary and advise you of any treatment that might be required. If needed, we will perform our specialist microsuction treatment to remove impacted earwax from you ears. This can all be performed in the same clinic visit.
You will also be required to sign a consent form to state that you are happy to proceed.
We recommend that you ideally use a week's course of olive oil or sodium bicarbonate drops prior to your appointment to help soften the wax to prevent any pain on removal. We can usually remove all earwax with our microsuction and probe technique.
Rarely, if the earwax is severely impacted and stuck to the skin, we may advise delaying the treatment further and softening the wax more before you come for a follow up appointment.
Yes, you can!
We would advise that you wait for a minimum of six weeks after any major ear surgery but you can always contact us if you are unsure.
Nothing is too unusual for us!
Babybel wax (bad idea to use as an earplug!), cotton buds, sequins, beads, ear studs and even insects!
