Our Clear Lugs Story
Clear Lugs was created to make ear wax removal easier to access - especially for those who may find it difficult to get out, or who simply want a relaxed, unrushed service.
Clear Lugs is a friendly, local ear wax removal service covering Aberdeen and the surrounding areas. I have over 25 years experience in ear care, including many years working in healthcare before setting up Clear Lugs. I focus solely on ear wax removal, offering a calm, straightforward experience without the fuss.
Appointments are available in the comfort of your own home, and also at my hub room by prior arrangement. Every appointment is carried out with care,
respect, and attention to your comfort.
Our Services
Not all ears require treatment, and not every method is suitable for everyone. Each appointment includes an assessment to ensure any treatment offered is appropriate and safe. Your comfort and safety always come first.
MICROSUCTION
Uses gentle suction to remove ear wax under direct vision.
WATER IRRIGATION
Uses a controlled flow of warm water to gently flush ear wax from the ear canal.
INSTRUMENTS
Instruments may be used to aid safe ear wax removal.
How methods are used
Some clients may only require one method, while others may need a combination of techniques during the same appointment. The most appropriate approach is chosen following assessment and discussion, with comfort and safety always the priority.

03
How long does an appointment take?
Appointments are never rushed. Most take around 30 - 45 minutes, depending on the amount of wax and the method used.
04
Is ear wax removal safe?
Ear wax removal is generally safe when carried out following an assessment and using appropriate methods. Your safety and comfort are always the priority, if removal is not suitable on the day, this will be explained and no treatment will proceed.
05
Do I need to prepare for my appointment?
Ear wax softening drops are often helpful and may be advised in advance to support safe and effective removal. Whether drops are recommended depends on your individual ear history and symptoms.
Some clients may be advised to use ear wax softening drops for 3 - 5 days before their appointment, while others may be advised not to use drops at all.
Please do not use ear drops if:
-
You have a known or suspected perforated (burst) eardrum
-
You have previously been advised not to use ear wax softeners
-
You have symptoms of an active ear infection, such as ear pain or discharge
-
You believe there may be a foreign body in your ear
You’ll be guided on what’s appropriate for you before and during your appointment.
06
What if the wax can't be removed?
Sometimes wax cannot be safely removed in one visit, or at all. If this happens, you’ll be advised on next steps or signposted to your local pharmacy, GP or Audiology services for further advice.
07
Is there aftercare advice?
Yes. After treatment, some clients notice an immediate change, while for others any improvement may be more gradual. This can vary depending on the amount of wax present and individual ear health.
It’s normal for your ears to feel slightly sensitive for a short time.
You may be advised to:
-
Avoid getting water in your ears for 24–48 hours
-
Avoid inserting cotton buds or other objects into your ears
-
Avoid headphones or earplugs if your ears feel sensitive
-
Use medicated olive oil drops only if advised
If you experience ongoing pain, discharge, dizziness, or sudden hearing changes, please contact your local Pharmacy, GP or Audiology services for further advice.
