Signs of earwax build-up
Earwax is a common and easily treated cause of these symptoms. Because they can have other causes too, we always examine your ear first before any treatment.
Expert ear care, close to home
A premium, community based service that pairs modern technology with experienced clinical support.
Clear Clinics trained
Your practitioner is fully trained and certified through the Clear Clinics aural care programme.
Senior audiologist support
Complex cases are reviewed with immediate access to senior audiologist advice.
See inside your ear
HD video endoscopy shows the before and after, so you can see the result for yourself.
Gentle and precise
Microsuction clears wax under direct vision with gentle suction and no water. NICE advises against manual ear syringing for adults and lists microsuction among the methods to use instead.
Three simple steps
Most appointments take around 15 to 30 minutes from start to finish.
Examination
We look inside your ear canal with a HD endoscope and show you what we find.
Removal
If wax is present, we remove it gently with microsuction, one or both ears, in a single visit where possible.
Aftercare
We confirm a clear, healthy ear canal and share simple advice to keep your ears comfortable.
Simple, transparent pricing
No hidden fees, and you never pay for the ear check twice.
Launch pricing
Standard prices
If wax is found and you go ahead with removal, the £20 check is included in the £80 fee, so there is no separate charge.
See the difference
With HD endoscopy you see your own ear canal before and after treatment, clear proof of a job well done.

Common questions
Is microsuction suitable for me?
For your safety, our walk-in microsuction service is for adults aged 18 and over. Please speak to our pharmacist or your GP before treatment, rather than attending as a walk-in, if any of the following apply to you, as microsuction may not be suitable or we may need to assess you first:
- You are under 18 years of age.
- There is a foreign object in the ear.
- You have, or think you may have had, a perforated eardrum in the past 12 months.
- You have had any ENT surgery in the last 6 months.
- You have a grommet or T-tube in your ear.
- You have an ear infection now, or have had one in the last 6 weeks.
- You have had a mucus discharge from the ear in the last 12 months.
- You have active eczema or psoriasis that is currently causing pain, swelling, irritation or discharge.
- You have an abrasion or inflammation of the ear canal now, or in the last 90 days.
- You have abnormal bony or skin growths in the ear, including polyps.
- You have significant ear pain now, or in the last 90 days, that is not related to wax build-up.
- You are unable to stay still and cooperate during treatment, for example due to confusion or agitation.
- You have a cleft palate, even if it has been repaired.
- You have troublesome vertigo, now or as a recurring problem.
- You have troublesome tinnitus that is affected by noise exposure.
- You have hearing in only one ear and it is the ear to be treated, as there is a small risk that treatment could affect the hearing in that ear.
If you are not sure whether any of these apply, please call us on 020 7435 7075 before your visit and we will be glad to advise.
