Expert Ear Wax Removal in Brighton
Please note that this is a private service: the cost for the service is £65 for an ear check-up and wax removal for both ears.
It is vital to take care of your ears and hearing. We all want to live life to the fullest and that is why good ear & hearing health is important to people of all ages. There are many factors that can affect our ear health including age, the misuse of earbuds, constant exposure to very loud noises and of course the build-up of ear wax. If our ear health is compromised then our ability to hear deteriorates, this often causes people to be socially withdrawn. If you are concerned about your hearing health or you are looking for ear wax removal in Brighton and Hove then please contact us, we can help.
In the United Kingdom, it is estimated that around 3.9% of the population requires management of ear wax each year with many people having to wait 12 to 16 weeks to get treatment on the NHS. These statistics are astonishing and due to the lack of treatments available with the NHS, many people simply go on living their lives with this condition, unaware that they can get treated at their local pharmacy. Here at Coldean Pharmacy, we want to help our customers with conditions such as this and that is why we have partnered up with TympaHealth to provide easy and accessible Ear Wax Removal in Brighton and Hove.
Diagnosis & Treatment with TympaHealth
Thanks to modern technology, TympaHealth treatments and procedures can help quickly diagnose ear & hearing conditions. Infections, as well as excessive & compacted wax, can be identified & treated quickly & without pain.
Each appointment will take roughly 30 minutes. Hearing screening will not be required to be carried out on each patient, however, we are able to perform a hearing screening if clinically required. In this circumstance, once the clinician has removed some wax the hearing screening will be performed. During the examination, high-definition images and videos of your inner ears will be taken. This will identify any hearing issues and whether or not you may require further treatment from specialist doctors. In most cases, however, the initial problem is simply the presence of excessive wax. If this is the case, a fast & painless microsuction procedure can be performed to clear the ear of any debris or built-up wax. This procedure could immediately improve hearing capabilities.
Safe & Effective Ear Wax Removal
Ear Microsuction is the safest and most effective way to remove earwax. It works by inserting a low-pressure suction probe into the ear. The probe will be controlled by one of our trained clinicians who will be wearing a microscope that will allow them to look clearly into the ear canal to remove the wax.
This procedure is painless and does not involve water being squirted into your ear canal as syringing does. It is a simple and clean procedure.
There will be a free follow-up/aftercare appointment if necessary, this will determine if you need to come back on a 3 or 6 monthly interval.
Microsuction at Coldean Pharmacy
We at Coldean Pharmacy have partnered with TympaHealth to provide a competitive and convenient service costing just £65 for a consultation. We use the most advanced, comprehensive ear and hearing handheld device to perform microsuction.
For at least 5 days prior to your appointment, we recommend using olive oil drops to soften the wax. We advise you to purchase Earol drops which has a spray-style applicator for precise and easy use. At your consultation, one of our trained advisors will ask a couple of questions and take a quick look in each ear before starting the procedure.
In the case of uncomplicated ear infections, we are also able to supply antibiotics on private basis.
