Wax Removal

Earwax, also called cerumen, serves an essential function in the body. It helps to remove dead skin cells, dirt, hair, and other debris from the ear canal. Earwax lowers the risk of infection and prevents the ear canal from feeling uncomfortable and itchy

However, it is possible for the body to overproduce earwax, allowing it to build up and block the ear canal. Cleaning ears using a cotton swab or other tools, can often cause a temporary hearing loss. 

Our Audiologists recommend for you contact our partners at Fairfax Ear Nose and Throat, (located on the 3rd floor) for earwax removal services.
