Safer than syringing.
Recommended by the NHS.

Peninsula Ear Care does not use or recommend syringing. This follows NHS recommendations. Microsuction is the safest method of removing foreign bodies, wax and infective matter from the ears — it greatly reduces mess and discomfort compared to traditional techniques.

Why we don’t use irrigation or syringing: Traditional syringing can damage the ear lining and risks perforating the ear drum — potentially causing permanent hearing loss. The NHS recommends microsuction as the preferred and safest approach for ear clearance.

Some centres promote alternative treatments including candling, but the NHS doesn’t support this — there is no physical benefit and there is a risk of harm including burns. Microsuction is quick, clean, and far more effective.
