Microsuction is not painful for the vast majority of patients.

Microsuction uses a small suction probe to remove wax under direct visualisation, with no water. Ear irrigation (formerly called syringing) flushes the ear with water. Microsuction is safer, more precise, and suitable for a wider range of patients – including those with perforated eardrums or previous ear surgery.
