How the Service Works
Step One Initial Assessment
Your appointment begins with an examination of the ear using an otoscope. This allows the pharmacist to assess the level and type of wax build up and determine if removal is suitable.
Step Two Softening Period if Required
In some cases, you may be advised to use ear drops for a few days before treatment. This helps soften the wax and allows for safer removal.
Step Three Wax Removal
Once the wax is ready to be removed, the procedure will be carried out using an approved method such as microsuction. This technique is commonly used in clinical settings and is known for being gentle and effective.
Step Four Aftercare and Advice
You will receive tailored advice to help maintain healthy ears and prevent future build up. Our team remains available if you have any follow up questions.
