Ear Cleaner - Quies
The Quies ear cleaning curette effectively removes excess earwax with its three flexible stainless steel loops. Designed for gentle cleaning of ear canals for adults and children over 5 years old, the stainless steel minimizes allergy risks. This reusable alternative to cotton swabs safely removes earwax without pushing it deeper into the ear canal. Careful removal of debris prevents ear canal blockage.
Conveniently portable, the curette is an economical and eco-friendly solution for preventing earwax buildup. The device captures debris at the entrance of the ear canal and gently pulls it out with rotating movements. Repeat as necessary and clean with soapy water.
Why is earwax cleaning important?
Earwax is a yellow-orange oily secretion that, according to modern hygiene standards, should be cleaned regularly. It is produced by glands located between the outer ear and ear canal, playing a vital role in ear health:
- Lubricates the ear to prevent irritation;
- Traps dust and foreign bodies (insects, fungi, etc.) to prevent their entry into the ear;
- Has antibacterial properties that protect the ears from microbes.
When should ears be cleaned?
While earwax is beneficial, it is not aesthetically pleasing. Cleaning it is a matter of health balance. Over-cleaning interferes with earwax's protective role, leading to reduced antibacterial defense, itching, and inflammation. The body naturally prevents excessive cleaning; the more earwax is removed, the more the body produces. Cleaning is recommended no more than 1-2 times a week. Interestingly, the body knows how to expel earwax loaded with debris. Jaw movements push the wax outward, making it easy to catch and remove with the curette.
Usage recommendations: Carefully insert at the entrance of the ear canal to avoid going too deep. Gently pull the earwax out with circular movements. Repeat as necessary. Clean with soapy water.
Made of stainless steel, it ensures gentle and effective ear cleaning. Suitable for adults and children over 5 years old.
