What is earwax?
Licenced to Clear
Ear wax is an oily material that is produced by glands within the ear canal. As one of the body’s many naturally occurring protective substances, ear wax is incredibly useful to our health and wellbeing.
Maintaining a healthy level of ear wax is key – too little and you might succumb to bacterial infections, too much and it can block the ear canal causing temporary hearing loss.
Some people can have problems with excess earwax, or it may get stuck in their ears. In these cases, people can suffer from discomfort or reduced hearing and can benefit from having the earwax removed. Pinder Hearing Care’s earwax removal service is a safe, effective way of sorting these issues.

What is ear microsuction?
Microsuction is one of the best ways to remove earwax. Once our trained advisers have assessed your ear canal, they’ll use a gentle suction device to remove any earwax blockages.
This suction device acts like a vacuum cleaner, helping to loosen and remove any impacted earwax. Once the procedure is over, we’ll use a microscope to check over your ears.
Previously, using an ear syringe with water was a common way to get rid of earwax, however microsuction is a quick and much safer method.

How do I know if I need to remove earwax?
Our ears are self cleaning, so you shouldn’t need to remove earwax at all. For some people though, earwax can cause problems in one or both ears, such as:
- Muffled hearing
- Tinnitus (hearing added noises, like ruffling)
- Earache, itching or discomfort
It’s important to be sure that any symptoms you have are caused by earwax and not an infection or other problem, as this service is designed for those suffering with excessive earwax. People who commonly need ear wax removal are:
- Users of in ear headphones
- Users of hearing aids
- Regular cotton bud users
- People who use ear plugs regularly
