Ear Wax Removal Methods Available at Our Green Street Clinic
At Newmans Pharmacy, we offer microsuction ear wax removal — widely regarded as the safest and most effective method currently available. Microsuction uses a gentle low-pressure suction device to carefully extract wax from the ear canal without the need for water. It is a dry, clean, and precise procedure that can be performed even when the ear is actively infected or when there is a perforated eardrum, making it suitable for patients who cannot undergo traditional ear irrigation or syringing. Most patients describe the procedure as quick and comfortable, with immediate improvement in hearing upon completion.
What to Expect at Your Ear Wax Removal Appointment in Green Street
Your ear wax removal appointment at Newmans Pharmacy begins with a brief consultation to discuss your symptoms and ear health history. We will ask about any previous ear problems, surgeries, or perforations, and whether you have had ear wax removal performed before. We will then use a video otoscope to examine both ears in detail. This examination is often reassuring for patients as it allows them to see exactly what is happening inside their own ear canal, and it ensures our practitioner has a clear picture of what is needed before any procedure begins.

Frequently Asked Question
Is ear wax removal available on the NHS at Newmans Pharmacy in Green Street?
Ear wax removal is largely no longer routinely commissioned by the NHS in most areas of England, including across the London Borough of Newham. This means the majority of patients need to access ear wax removal privately. At Newmans Pharmacy, we provide a high-quality private ear wax removal service at a competitive and transparent price
What is the difference between microsuction and ear irrigation?
Microsuction uses a gentle suction device to remove ear wax without any water, making it suitable for most patients including those with perforated eardrums or a history of ear infections. Ear irrigation uses a controlled flow of warm water to flush wax out of the canal.
Do I need to use ear drops before my appointment?
If you are having ear irrigation, we recommend using olive oil ear drops or a proprietary ear wax softening solution twice daily for five to seven days before your appointment. This helps to soften the wax and makes removal easier, more comfortable, and more effective.
Is ear wax removal painful?
Ear wax removal at Newmans Pharmacy is designed to be as comfortable as possible. Microsuction may produce a gentle suction sensation and a low humming sound during the procedure, which some patients find unusual but rarely painful. Ear irrigation involves warm water being gently flushed into the ear canal, which most patients describe as a mild, pressure-like sensation.
How long does an ear wax removal appointment take at Newmans Pharmacy?
A typical ear wax removal appointment at our Green Street clinic takes between fifteen and thirty minutes from start to finish. This includes the initial ear examination, the wax removal procedure itself, and a brief aftercare discussion. The exact duration depends on how much wax is present and how compacted it is.
