Microsuction (Ears) Clinic

Do You Suffer from Any of These Symptoms?

• A feeling of fullness in the ear?
• The sensation of hearing everything muffled?
• Sudden hearing loss after swimming or showering?
• Mild tinnitus?

If any of these symptoms sound familiar, then you could have excess ear wax blocking your ear canal.

Medstar Microsuction Clinic

Having blocked ears is an intensely unpleasant experience. It can cause hearing problems, lead to infections and sometimes make you feel dizzy. It’s not surprising that most people want to have it treated as quickly and as safely as possible. Blocked ears are almost impossible to self-treat safely. At Medstar Clinic, we provide a quick, convenient and affordable treatment called Microsuction, which can remove wax and debris from your ear safely. ‘Microsuction’ is the safest and most effective way to unblock your ears.

What to Expect During Your Visit

First, we will discuss your problem with you and then explain the procedure. We will then gently examine your ear canal using a special endovision system. Then while looking down your ear canal, we will use a tiny vacuum cleaner to clear the blockage. Finally, we will use the endovision system to check the condition of your ear drum. Microsuction is by far the most effective and safest way of cleaning blocked ears. It is more effective than common alternative treatments such as ear syringing, which uses a jet of water to try and dislodge wax build ups or using a probe and a headlight.

As well as removing more wax, Microsuction is safer because the procedure is performed under direct vision using both eyes which means that there is good depth perception and a clear view of the tip of the suction probe at all times.
