MICROSUCTION EAR CLEANING
A safe, gentle and effective way to clean ears is now available.
Microsuction is an ear cleaning technique that uses a binocular microscope and a suction device. It is the same technique used by ear, nose and throat specialists—and is superior to other methods such as water syringing (higher risks of ear drum trauma and ear infections) and ear candling (limited evidence). Microsuction is safe, gentle, and does not require water or previsit earwax softeners.
Australian Hearing and hearing aid manufacturers recommend a 4-6 monthly ear clean for hearing aid users.
HOW IT WORKS:
- A disposable speculum (funnel) is inserted into the ear canal.
- A doctor examines the ear canal and tympanic membrane (ear drum) under a microscope
- A suction tube is inserted into the ear canal. Any earwax and debris is suctioned out under the microscope. Eardrops, probes and forceps may be used for hard wax.
- The camera can be used again to show a clean ear.
