Microsuction ear cleaning is the safest, most effective way to remove earwax buildup. Book your appointment today at 1 Health, Christchurch’s trusted ear care clinic.
Why Choose Microsuction Ear Cleaning?
Microsuction is the safest, most effective method of removing earwax — and the preferred option for patients across Christchurch. Unlike traditional ear syringing, which uses water and can be uncomfortable or messy, microsuction is a gentle, precise technique that uses suction to clear blockages without risk of damage to the ear. At 1 Health, our experienced team uses the latest equipment in a clean, hygienic environment — ensuring you receive the best care, whether it’s your first visit or part of your ongoing ear health routine.

Ear Wax Removal FAQs
What is microsuction, and is it safe?
Microsuction uses a small suction probe under magnification to remove ear wax gently and effectively. It’s considered the safest and most comfortable method, especially compared to DIY home options like cotton swabs. Experts agree it avoids risk and irritation.
Will the procedure be unpleasant?
Most people find microsuction painless. You may hear a light “vacuum” noise and feel minimal pressure, but discomfort is rare. Our clinicians are experienced, fast, and gentle.
Why can’t I use cotton swabs at home?
Inserting cotton swabs often pushes wax deeper into the ear, potentially causing blockages or damage to the ear canal or eardrum. Instead, let professionals take care of cleaning.
Can I try any home remedies first?
You can soften wax at home with cerumenolytic drops (e.g., mineral oil or carbamide peroxide) for a few days before your appointment. But if symptoms don’t improve or bother continues, professional cleaning is the most effective solution.
How quickly will I notice results?
Microsuction takes about 10–15 minutes and often provides immediate relief from symptoms like muffled hearing, fullness, or irritation.
