Everything You Need To Know About Microsuction Earwax Removal & Aftercare With Earol®
When it comes to earwax removal, microsuction has quickly become one of the safest and most effective methods available. Whether you’ve been struggling with blocked ears, muffled hearing or discomfort caused by earwax build-up, microsuction offers a quick, gentle solution that doesn’t require water or messy drops. What many people don’t realise is that aftercare plays a huge role in keeping your ears healthy once the wax has been removed and that’s where Earol® Aftercare Spray comes in.
What Is Microsuction Earwax Removal?
Microsuction earwax removal is a professional procedure carried out by trained audiologists or clinicians. Using a precise suction device (a bit like a tiny vacuum), it gently removes excess or impacted wax from the ear canal under direct vision. This means there’s no water involved, making it ideal for people with perforated eardrums, ear infections 1 or those who simply prefer a cleaner, faster method.
Unlike syringing or irrigation, microsuction is controlled and targeted, allowing professionals to remove wax safely without introducing moisture into the ear. The result? Clearer hearing, reduced pressure and immediate relief — often in less than 30 minutes.
Why Aftercare Is Essential
Once you’ve had earwax removal, your ear canal may feel a little sensitive. Microsuction can sometimes leave the skin inside the ear dry or prone to irritation 1. That’s completely normal but it’s important to restore moisture and protect the delicate skin as it recovers.
Earol® Aftercare Spray is designed specifically for this purpose. Containing Sweet Almond Oil 2 and a gentle alkane base, it helps soothe, hydrate and protect the ear canal after professional cleaning. A simple daily spray helps reduce dryness, itchiness and irritation 1, keeping your ears comfortable and healthy long after your appointment.
