Microsuction and irrigation
Not every clinic offers both. Michele uses whichever suits your wax, or both, for the same price.

Booking around a holiday or a trip
- Book with time to spare Leave a few days between your appointment and your trip, rather than booking the day before you go.
- Prepare for three to five days Olive oil spray twice a day, for at least two days and ideally three to five, so the wax is soft on the day.
- Have the wax removed Michele shows you your ears on screen before and after, so you know they are clear.
- Keep your ears dry afterwards After irrigation in particular, keep water out of your ears for four to five days, especially sea water. If you swim, ear plugs help until your ears have made a little fresh wax to protect them.
- Flying soon after? Mention it when you book and Michele will advise you.
Michele does not recommend sodium bicarbonate drops.
