Your hearing and general well-being will benefit from achieving clear, healthy ears. For those with more than a little build up of ear wax we offer a professional ear wax removal service at Harley Street Skin Clinic, London. Whether you’re looking for relief from some blocked ears, or just some maintenance for your ear health, we’ve got you covered.
Let’s know about the professional ear wax removal process.
Ear wax removal is a procedure that is used to clear blocked ears and restore natural hearing. This is a minimally invasive procedure that is done to remove excess ear wax build up that can lead to discomfort, hearing loss or irritation.
After the ear wax removal process, most clinics have personalized aftercare tips that will help your ears stay clear of ear plugs for as long as possible and prevent wax from blocking your ears in the future. Hearing is also an important process to the human body, so you need to take care of it properly.
Anyone with ear congestion, muffled hearing, or discomfort associated with wax accumulation will benefit greatly from this treatment. This is a solution we could all use to keep our ears clear and healthy, safely and without excessive cost.

It is preferable to begin with a consultation where expectations regarding the procedure, necessary preparations, and actions to be taken before, during, and after the treatment are established.
We are now focused on all the preparations that must be made, ensuring everything proceeds smoothly financially, emotionally, and physically before the procedure begins.
The three main ear wax removal methods are microsuction, irrigation, and manual removal. Microsuction, the most common and preferred, uses a small suction device for quick (10-30 minutes), painless, water-free removal, making it safe for perforated eardrums or infections. Irrigation (ear syringing) flushes wax out with warm water in 15-30 minutes but isn’t suitable for those with ear infections or perforations. Manual removal uses curettes, forceps, or probes, often alongside microsuction, to clear small, hard blockages.
Most people can resume normal activities immediately after ear wax removal, with hearing often improving instantly, though mild discomfort may occur. To prevent future blockages, it is best to avoid inserting cotton buds. Some clinics also recommend using olive oil drops before treatment to help soften the wax for easier removal.

A wonderful consultation with Dr Khan. I had a few Milia I wanted removing (including one my my lash line) which he was able to remove during the consultation. I was a little anxious about the procedure given the location of the milia on my lash line but I needn't have worried.

Avoid using cotton swabs or inserting anything into your ears that may push wax deeper before ear wax removal. Your specialist might suggest ear drops to soften the wax for easy removal. To ensure a safe procedure, be sure to tell the specialist if you have ear pain, infections, or a medical condition.
The specialist will look through your ears during the treatment, to examine the quantity of the wax buildup and determine what approach (microsuction, irrigation, or manual tools) to use for the removal. The process is generally not painful, but you might feel some pressure or hear suction sounds, depending on the method used. The process is quick and formulated to clear the ears effectively and safely.
After the procedure, be sure to follow your specialist’s aftercare instructions, which might include keeping your ears dry for 24 hours. Don’t over clean, earwax is a natural protector to the ear canal. Call your specialist to report any pain or hearing issues. Routine checkups help to prevent the accumulation of excess wax and maintain ear hygiene.
