Ear Wax Microsuction at James St Medical Northbridge
Gentle and Precise Ear Wax Removal

Understanding Ear Wax Buildup
Excessive earwax can lead to a variety of concerns, including:
– Reduced Hearing: Blockages can muffle sounds, impacting your ability to hear clearly.
– Discomfort: Impacted earwax can cause pain and irritation.
– Tinnitus: A buildup may contribute to ringing or buzzing sensations in the ears.
– Cough Reflex: In some cases, excessive wax can trigger a cough due to irritation in the ear canal.
Why Choose Our Microsuction Service?
At James St Medical Northbridge, we offer ear wax microsuction as a modern and effective solution for earwax removal. Our skilled medical professionals utilize advanced microsuction technology to ensure a safe and efficient experience tailored to your needs.
What is Microsuction?
Microsuction is a minimally invasive technique that allows for the precise removal of earwax. During your visit, our trained practitioners will use a high-powered microscope to carefully visualize your ear canal, employing a gentle suction device to remove wax and debris. This method stands out for several reasons:
– Enhanced Safety: Microsuction significantly reduces the risk of ear canal damage or eardrum perforation compared to traditional methods.
– No Water Involved: Unlike irrigation techniques, microsuction is a dry procedure, minimizing the risk of infection from residual moisture.
– Comfort-Focused: Most patients find the procedure comfortable, with minimal side effects, allowing for a quick return to daily activities.
What to Expect During Your Visit
You will recline on a cozy couch, and our doctor will gently insert a small conical speculum into your ear. Using the suction probe, we will carefully clear away any excess wax. While some patients may feel slight pressure or temporary changes in hearing, these sensations are typically brief and mild.
