About the clinic
Our Home Visit service in Formby is directed by Hajirah Ben-Ali and, the director of North West Microsuction. As a Senior NHS trained Audiologist and Hajirah obtained her degree in Audiology from the University of Leeds. Registered with the HCPC, RCCP and BSHAA. Over 10 years of experience in Audiology, particularly microsuction with an accreditation from the hearing lab. She has worked with hundreds of patients both in the NHS and private sectors and is very passionate about helping people regain confidence in their hearing again. We offer home visit service, as well as a service in clinic at the Sefton Suite wherewe perform ear wax removal by microsuction which is the Gold standard of wax removal.
The over-production of ear wax causes symptoms in 1 in 15 people in the UK and can now and then be misunderstood to be permanent hearing loss.
The build up of ear wax is a normally occurring phenomenon to protect your ears from the harmful intrusion of dirt and other small objects.
Ear wax is there for a reason. It keeps the skin of the ear canal healthy and normally works its own way out. Trouble starts when it builds up and blocks the canal: your hearing goes muffled, the ear feels full, and some people get itching, earache, ringing or dizziness.
Softening drops are the usual first step. The NHS suggests 2 to 3 drops of medical-grade olive or almond oil, 3 to 4 times a day for 3 to 5 days, unless you might have a hole in your eardrum. If the ear is still blocked after that, book in for removal with a clinic in Liverpool.
Try not to dig the wax out with cotton buds or fingers. They tend to push it deeper and can scratch the canal, which makes it harder to remove. Our guide to the signs of ear wax build-up explains what to look out for.

Your appointment
Every clinic has its own way of doing things, and Formby Ear Wax Removal will talk you through theirs. This is how a typical ear wax removal appointment goes.
Some clinics suggest softening the wax with olive oil drops for a few days first, so ask when you book. Mention any ear surgery, a perforated eardrum or grommets.
The clinician asks about your symptoms, then checks both ears with an otoscope or a microscope before deciding how to remove the wax.
Microsuction is noisy but rarely painful. Some clinics use warm-water irrigation or a small instrument instead. Allow around half an hour.
Most people hear more clearly straight away. Brief dizziness or a little soreness usually settles quickly. Get help if you have pain, discharge, bleeding or worse hearing.
