How much does earwax removal cost in İstanbul?

The cost of earwax removal depends on factors such as how hard the plug is and whether one or both ears are affected; irrigation, suction under a microscope or use of an endoscope; whether an extra examination or hearing test is needed, and is set by the doctor after an examination. Under Turkish rules on the advertising of health services, prices are not published on our site; you can ask the doctor directly when you request an appointment.

Who is the best doctor for earwax removal in İstanbul?

There is no single “best” doctor for everyone. The right doctor for you is experienced in earwax removal, easy to reach, and explains the options clearly. Check whether the doctor lists this treatment on their profile, their specialty (ENT specialist, family doctor), the overall picture of patient reviews and the clinic’s location, and ask for a clear written treatment plan, timeline and cost at the first consultation. For major treatments you have the right to a second opinion. “En İyi Hekim” (Turkish for “best doctor”) is our brand name: we do not rank doctors as “best” and rankings cannot be bought.

How do I find a ENT specialist for earwax removal in İstanbul?

On each profile you can see reviews, the clinic address and available times, and send a free appointment request through our site.

Do I need to have my ears cleaned?

Most people do not; the ears clean themselves. Cleaning is recommended only when a plug forms and causes fullness, reduced hearing or ringing, or blocks an examination.

Why are cotton buds harmful?

Cotton buds push most of the wax inwards and cause plugs, irritate the skin of the ear canal and can injure the eardrum when pushed in deep.

Irrigation or suction?

If the eardrum is intact and there is no infection, irrigation is safe and effective. For people with a hole in the eardrum, a tube or a history of ear surgery, suction under a microscope is preferred.

My ear is blocked after swimming on holiday. Is it wax?

Water can make a wax plug swell and suddenly block the ear, which is common on beach holidays. If the blockage does not clear within a day or two, or there is pain or discharge, see a doctor; pain after swimming can also be an outer ear infection.

What is earwax Removal?

Earwax (cerumen) is a natural secretion that protects and moisturises the outer ear canal and defends against germs. Normally it moves out by itself with jaw movements and does not need cleaning. In some people, however, earwax builds up into a plug because of overproduction, a narrow or curved ear canal, use of hearing aids or in-ear headphones and, especially, pushing wax inwards with cotton buds. This causes a feeling of fullness, reduced hearing, ringing, itching and, rarely, dizziness. A doctor removes the plug in one of three ways: rinsing with water at body temperature (irrigation), suction with a fine aspirator under a microscope or endoscope, and mechanical removal with small instruments. Irrigation is not done for people with a hole in the eardrum, previous ear surgery or a tube in the ear; suction is preferred in that case. For hard plugs, softening drops may be recommended for a few days before cleaning.

How is earwax Removal done?

Ear examination and questions about the eardrum and past ear problems
Softening drops for a few days beforehand if needed
Choosing the method: irrigation with water at body temperature, suction under a microscope or removal with an instrument
Examining the ear canal and eardrum again after cleaning
Referral for a hearing test if hearing problems continue
