WAX CARE PLAN
What is ear wax?
Simply put, ear wax, or cerumen, is a natural mix of oil, sweat, hair, and dead skin cells. While many people think ear wax is “dirty,” that’s actually a misconception. In fact, ear wax plays an important role in protecting your ears—it has antibacterial properties that help prevent infections and keep your ears healthy.
Ear wax typically appears in shades of brown or yellow, but it can also have reddish or even black tones. Interestingly, the darker the wax, the longer it’s likely been there. So, while ear wax is completely normal, it’s important to take care of it to maintain healthy ears! At Dipple and Conway, we’re here to help with safe and effective ear wax removal, keeping your ears clear and comfortable.

This I did to gather information.
