Stages of Treatment

Ear wax removal is a common problem, it will effect each individual differently depending on many factors. A build up of wax should always be treated by a qualified specialist. Here at Audiyo we use the latest and safest technique; microsuction.

At your appointment, your audiologist will start by asking some general questions to ensure that the procedure is safe for you, before examining the ear to ensure that there is sufficient wax for a safe and successful removal. Microsuction is performed by inserting an otoscope with a camera attached in to the ear, the audiologist will have a clear visual of where the wax is and will gently insert a fine tube into the ear in order to gently remove the ear wax from the canal.
