Ear Wax Removal Chelmsford

At Click Hearing, we provide two expert services for ear wax removal in Chelmsford and other locations.

Our microsuction ear wax removal method uses gentle suction along with a high-powered microscope to safely view the ear canal and eardrum. This technique is often recommended by Ear, Nose, and Throat specialists and is available at our Chelmsford, Ramsden Heath, and Upminster clinics.

For a more traditional approach, we offer irrigation ear wax removal, a quieter and less invasive option that’s ideal for nervous or anxious clients. This service is available at our Chelmsford Duke Street, Upminster, and Hornchurch locations.

When should I consider Irrigation?

Hearing aid users who generate lots of wax.
Quieter than microsuction
Better than microsuction if you are nervous or anxious about the process.
More efficient at removing impacted or deep ear wax.
Preferred if wax is sticky or softer, particularly when ear drops have been overused.

Ear Wax Removal with Microsuction in Chelmsford

Ear wax removal using irrigation is a more traditional method of ear wax removal and offers a less invasive and quieter process than microsuction and is therefore better suited for very nervous or anxious clients. It is available from our Upminster, Hornchurch and Chelmsford Duke Street practices.

If you unsure which is best for you please contact us for advice or refer to our FAQ section below.

Before booking on behalf of a child under the age of 7 please call us first to ensure you are clear on what the procedure entails.

Both services are £75 and include an initial inspection and assessment of the ears before the ear wax removal procedure takes place.

If no wax is discovered a consultancy fee of £30 is applied.

Ear wax removal with Irrigation in Chelmsford

Irrigation follows much the same procedure as microsuction, with a digital health check performed before the process begins, known as a video otoscopy.

Irrigation cannot be performed if the ears have been operated on, have a perforation or any open abrasions. Clients with mastoid cavities are also excluded from having irrigation.

The process uses a gentle, steady stream of water to dislodge the wax. A basin is held under the ear to catch the expelled wax and water.

The ear wax and the ear canal remain in clear vision for the practitioner during the procedure with wax successfully removed almost 100% of the time.

Irrigation is quieter and less invasive than microsuction and is probably a better choice if your wax is very hard or stuck to the eardrum where microsuction can occasionally cause some discomfort.

Very friendly staff. Quick service. Very informative and useful feedback. The professional took her time explaining everything so I understood everything. Painless and super effective. Had a build up of wax in my left ear and could not hear a thing, booked my appointment that same week and was seen to very quickly and in 20 mins it was done. I can hear again!

Amazing. Next day booking and plenty of time slots. The receptionist was very friendly, clean and nice waiting room and the lady who did my ear-wax removal was brilliant. Everything was explained, I got to see what was happening and the session itself took no more than 20 mins. I feel like i’ve got a completely new ear! Would 100% recommend and used again. It’s £75 for two ears (even if you only have one doing) but it’s totally worth it!

Went to the Ramsden Heath branch and had my ears cleared by Ben on the 3rd of January.An utmost professional approach and diagnosis with a painless procedure.I couldn't recommend Ben highly enough had the added hearing test which again was excellent with a report sent by email.At last I've found someone who I can totally say is the best in the business.

I went in for 'vestibular function tests'. The audiologist was excellent. Very personable and friendly. She kept me informed in straightforward, non-jargon language and I felt by the end of it all that I understood what had just happened and what it all meant, rather than just having experienced some sort of arcane medical experiment. Top marks 👍.

Extremely easy to book. I loved being able to see inside my ear after years of ear treatment. The staff were friendly, the service very quick and all in all a fabulous experience. I had the micro suction and won't hesitate to return for it again, along with when I need a hearing aid.
