Earwax microsuctioning is a procedure performed by healthcare professionals to safely remove excessive or impacted earwax from the ear canal using a specialised device called a microsuction probe. It is a gentle and precise technique that involves the use of low-pressure suction to extract the wax. The procedure is performed under direct visualisation, ensuring safe and effective removal of the earwax without the use of water. Please visit our Ear Wax Removal Page for more information on the procedure and what you can expect.
The cost for the appointment is $140, and is for both ears. We offer a discount for Pensioners and existing customers.

Excessive earwax can partially or completely block the ear canal, reducing the amount of sound that reaches the eardrum. This can disrupt the auditory system and lead to a perception of phantom sounds (ringing, buzzing, or humming).
Once the earwax is safely removed, tinnitus (the ringing sounds) often resolves. However, if it persists, we can assist with further investigation to rule out other causes, such as noise exposure, hearing loss, or circulatory issues. Our clinic in Mudgeeraba is equipped with state-of-the-art equipment to perform hearing testing.
