Ear Wax Removal (Private)

Blocked ears from a wax build-up are more common than people realise, and more fixable than most people expect. Rather than waiting weeks for a GP referral, our private ear wax removal service gets it sorted quickly and comfortably. Get in touch if your hearing’s felt muffled lately.

Signs You Might Have a Build-Up

Muffled hearing, a feeling of fullness in the ear, mild discomfort, or even a bit of tinnitus can all point to wax build-up rather than anything more serious. It’s worth getting checked before assuming it’s something else.

Preparing Before Your Appointment

Softening the wax beforehand with olive oil or a dedicated ear drop for several days can make removal considerably easier and more comfortable. We’ll tell you exactly what to use and for how long when you book.

What Happens During Removal

We’ll examine your ear first to confirm it’s actually wax causing the issue, then remove it using an appropriate method based on what we find. Most appointments are straightforward and done within half an hour.

When We’d Refer You Elsewhere

If examination reveals something other than simple wax build-up, an infection, perforation, or anything needing a specialist’s attention, we’ll tell you plainly and refer you on rather than attempting removal regardless.

Aftercare

Most people notice an improvement immediately. We’ll give you a few simple pointers on keeping your ears comfortable afterward and when to get back in touch if anything feels off.
