Busted

There are several marvel methods on the market for cleaning your ears, including cotton swabs, scraping tools, and ear candles, but their popularity does not guarantee their safety. Most of these methods can cause further earwax impaction, and ear candles could drip hot wax onto your skin, causing burns. 

The safest method for earwax removal at home is using mineral ear drops, but these should only be used for minor cases of earwax buildup.

FAQs About
Earwax Removal 

What are the common symptoms of earwax blockage?

Many of the symptoms of earwax blockage are similar to those of ear infections or colds. If you’re not sniffling, then check for these symptoms: - Stuffiness in the ears, or a feeling of being plugged up - Earaches - Poor hearing aid performance - Ringing or buzzing sounds (tinnitus) - Headaches - Dizziness or vertigo - Itchiness inside the ear - Balance issues - Muffled sounds

What can I expect during an earwax removal appointment?

Our patented Earigator system will gently flush the earwax out with warm water, softening and loosening the impacted wax so it will naturally fall out. For more stubborn impactions, we’ll use a curette to gently remove the wax manually.
