- • A second magnified check of the canals and eardrums once clear.
- • Written aftercare advice, including whether maintenance drops are worth using.
- • A free follow-up appointment if a second visit is clinically needed.
- • A referral letter for your GP or ENT if we find something that needs it.
What is not included: hearing aids, ear moulds and diagnostic hearing assessments are separate services with their own published prices. We do not sell anything at a wax appointment.
How Private Wax Removal Pricing Usually Works
UK clinics price wax removal in one of three ways: a flat fee per appointment, a fee per ear, or a low headline fee with a separate consultation charge added on. The headline number is the least useful figure to compare, because a "from £45" price per ear plus a consultation fee can end up higher than a single fixed fee.
| Pricing model | Typical headline | What you actually pay for two ears |
|---|---|---|
| Fixed fee per appointment (our model) | £65 | £65 |
| Fee per ear | From £45 per ear | £90 |
| Headline fee plus consultation | From £39 | £39 plus consultation, often £70 or more |
Illustrative comparison of common UK pricing models, not a quote for any named clinic. Always ask whether the price covers both ears and whether a consultation fee applies.
