Common Inquiries and Helpful Information
Ear wax removal is the process of extracting excess ear wax (cerumen) from the ear canal. It is necessary when there is a build-up that causes symptoms such as hearing loss, earache, tinnitus, or dizziness. Excessive ear wax can also lead to infections and impact the effectiveness of hearing aids.
Ear wax removal can be performed using several methods, including Irrigation (flushing the ear with water), Microsuction (using a gentle vacuum), and manual removal with specialized instruments. The choice of method depends on the individual’s condition and the practitioner’s recommendation.
The frequency of ear wax removal varies from person to person. Some people may need it every few months, while others may only require it once a year or less. It depends on how quickly your ears produce wax and if you experience any symptoms. Consult with a healthcare professional for personalized advice.

It's important to have the procedure done by a qualified practitioner to minimize these risks.
While there are over-the-counter ear drops and home remedies available, it’s generally not recommended to remove ear wax at home, especially using cotton swabs, ear candles, or other objects. Improper techniques can push the wax deeper, cause damage, or lead to infection. It’s safer to have ear wax removed by a professional.
