Earwax buildup affects thousands across South Wales every year. That uncomfortable pressure, reduced hearing, and frustrating blocked sensation doesn't have to be your reality. Professional microsuction offers immediate relief in a single comfortable appointment at our Cardiff, Bridgend or Newport clinic. [Book Ear Wax Removal](#locations) ![A woman holding the side of her head, wincing with the pressure of a blocked ear canal](/assets/ear-pain-Ck4jYW62.jpg) Common Signs You Need Professional Removal - Muffled or distant sounds - Pressure or fullness in your ears - Your voice echoing inside your head - Balance problems or tinnitus - Persistent discomfort or irritation - Difficulty following conversations Modern, Safe Removal ## Why microsuction is the gold standard Unlike outdated syringing or irrigation techniques, microsuction uses gentle suction under microscopic guidance to remove even stubborn wax without water, discomfort or risk. [Book Ear Wax Removal](#locations) How Microsuction Works Ear micro suction, often written as microsuction, is the method we use at all three of our South Wales clinics. Our qualified audiologists use a binocular microscope for magnified vision of your ear canal, ensuring complete visibility throughout the procedure. A small medical suction device gently removes wax under direct vision — precise, controlled and comfortable. Why Microsuction Beats Alternatives - No water needed (safer for perforated eardrums) - Works immediately on hard, impacted wax - Completely controlled under direct vision - Comfortable for most patients - Suitable for all ages (7+) - Immediate results Available at all three Prestige Hearing locations across South Wales. Preparation ## How to prepare for your appointment Proper preparation ensures the best results. Softening wax beforehand makes removal easier, quicker and more comfortable. 3–4 Days Before Apply Earol spray or olive oil to affected ear(s) twice daily. This softens hard wax, allowing complete removal during your appointment. [Book Appointment](#locations) What To Use - Earol spray (available from pharmacies) - Medical-grade olive oil - Sodium bicarbonate ear drops What NOT To Use - Cotton buds (push wax deeper) - Ear candles (dangerous and ineffective) - Excessive irrigation at home Unsure? Contact your nearest Prestige Hearing clinic before your appointment. What Happens During Your Visit ## Your ear wax removal appointment Appointments follow a simple, reassuring process designed for your comfort and safety. 00 ### Initial examination Your audiologist examines both ears using an otoscope, assessing wax levels and checking overall ear health. 00 ### Microsuction procedure Using a binocular microscope for magnified vision, we gently remove all earwax. Most appointments take 15–30 minutes. 00 ### Post-treatment check We examine your ears again to confirm complete clearance and check for any underlying issues needing attention. 00 ### Aftercare advice You'll receive practical guidance on preventing future buildup and maintaining optimal ear health. Most patients experience immediate hearing improvement.
