Varicose Veins – Jen

January 17, 2018 by

Jen had been feeling insecure about her legs for a long time but since she noticed varicose veins starting to appear she has felt even worse as no amount of diet or exercise was going to reduce the appearance of them.

“For every girl displaying their perfect pins on Instagram, there’s me hoping they don’t show or hiding them away.”

Jen had varicose veins on both of her legs with her left knee being the most prominent, this was the one she wanted to focus on first with the aim of getting her right leg treated too if successful.

It wasn’t just the physical appearance of the veins that bothered Jen. She found herself feeling uncomfortable and her legs feeling heavy if she had spent the day on her feet. Jen also experienced itching and discomfort around the vein on a regular basis too.

Jen initially went to see her GP to try and find out the cause of her varicose veins but the usual causes did not apply to her which left her feeling even more helpless.

“It’s usually related to pregnancy, being overweight (sure, I’d like to lose a few pounds but not so much so that I would fall into this category) or spending a lot of time on your feet. None of which apply to me and can’t be the cause. So why it’s happened to me, I don’t know.”

Although Jen tried not to let her varicose veins determine what she did and didn’t feel comfortable wearing she did find; especially in the summer months her fear of wearing a dress without tights particularly frustrating.

“You won’t find me in a short dress that exposes them (not without tights) jeans or trousers are usually my friend. Which has made heatwave dressing a challenge!”

Jen decided that the time had come to finally do something about her troublesome varicose veins and came to visit us at our Harley Street Clinic to find out more about our range of varicose vein treatments including EVLA (Endovenous Laser Ablation).

“I met with Mr Rittoo who immediately made me feel at ease. He explained the procedure and that it’s a fairly simple and quick – It’s walk-in, walk-out so minimal drama around it.  Which is good, I am of course nervous – as I think is normal having any sort of medical treatment really. But overall I’m really excited. I know I’m in great hands with The Private Clinic who have a long history of treating varicose veins.”

Jen went ahead with an EVLA procedure to treat the underlying causes of varicose veins and a micro phlebectomy to treat the visible branch varicose veins.

“Mr Rittoo – who saw me for my consultation, operation and follow up – plus his team were all fantastic. In particular the nursing staff too, who were very caring and comforting when was having a bit of a nervous wobble on the operation table.”

The procedure itself doesn’t take long and Jen was able to leave the clinic shortly afterwards once she was feeling ready to do so and soon enough Jen was back to work and her usual activities although taking a bit easier than usual of course.

“No-one would have noticed had I not mentioned it myself”

Jen is now four months post-procedure as is feeling really happy with the results of her EVLA treatment and despite some incision marks still being visible she is much more comfortable about exposing them.

“I am really delighted when I look at my leg and no longer see the varicose vein there that made me feel so insecure. I can’t wait until next summer when the small incision marks that remain will hopefully be all healed and I can wear shorts without feeling like an awkward turtle.  I would 100% return to The Private Clinic for the same treatment again and would trust them to take good care of me for that second leg.”

Breast Enhancement or Breast Lift Near Me

November 24, 2018 by Julia Morgan Leave a Comment

Breast augmentation is a desired procedure now increasing in popularity due to the technical advancements available which reduce the downtime and offer great lasting results.

Breast augmentations and breast uplifts are procedures available for women who want to improve the appearance of their breast. These procedures enable the improvement of many breast concerns such as shape, symmetry, size or sagginess.

Choosing the right clinic to get any of these procedures done can sometimes be a difficult task; here you will be able to find useful information about the procedures if you are considering breast enhancement at any of The Private Clinic locations.

What is a breast augmentation?

Breast augmentation is a procedure which involves the insertion of implants into the breast area in order to correct, re-shape or add volume to the breasts.

With a breast augmentation you can expect:

  • Improvement of breast symmetry
  • Help with enhancement in the volume of the breast after breastfeeding or weight loss.
  • Enhancement of the size and/or the fullness of the breasts. 
Before and after breast augmentation.

What is a breast lift?

A breast lift, also known as Mastopexy is a surgery which enables the patient to recuperate the firmness and shape of the breasts. It is ideal for patients who suffer from saggy or empty breasts or perhaps are unhappy about the positioning or size of their nipples.

The breast lift procedure consists on the re-tightening of the skin after the excess skin has been removed and the nipple has been repositioned. The result, firmer, smoother and rejuvenated breasts. The most common scar resulting from a breast lift is the lollipop scar, however, if the breast lift need is minor then a small scar can result on the lower bottom of the areola.

There is also the option available of having both a breast lift and a breast enlargement to achieve a fuller and/or rounder look to the breasts.

Before and after breast lift with lollipop scaring.

Cosmetic Surgery After Sports Injuries

June 15, 2018 by Steffanie Griffiths Leave a Comment

Injuries in sports are unfortunately all too common, with the hitting, crushing and nasty falls associated with various sports. This blog post focuses on two frequently occurring injuries or consequences that can occur in a wide range of sporting activities – a fractured nose, and scarring, and your cosmetic surgery solutions for resolving these.

Nose Surgery after Sports Injuries

Nasal fractures are the most frequently injured facial bones, occurring through a variety of sports, such as boxing, baseball and rugby. And what can you do about it? Either immediately after trauma and before swelling starts, or in the first two weeks post trauma after swelling has minimised, the technique of Simple Closed Reduction can be used. This is where bones are simply realigned to their original position. Although, in some cases, this is not sufficient and surgery is required to align the bones properly. After trauma, patients should therefore immediately visit an emergency department or primary care provider, who will refer you to a surgeon who will evaluate and treat your injuries.

If you are after the two week stage, your bones have started to or have set and cannot be resolved with Simple Closed Reduction. There is a solution, however. Fractured noses that have not been set, badly displaced noses, and also those that have not healed sufficiently after being reset, may all be corrected with Rhinoplasty (surgical nose reshaping). Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure which can reshape the nose to reverse the effects of the injury on the nasal appearance, and if required, breathing. This is something our expert rhinoplasty surgeons can help with. If you have also been left with a deviated septum after trauma (when the septum has been displaced to one side), affecting nasal breathing, septoplasty could be performed simultaneously. Your surgeon will evaluate if this is required.

What happens in the procedure? In the rhinoplasty surgery, careful incisions will be made to access damaged or deviated impacted tissue, or any tissue obstructing the nasal airway, which can be discarded or repositioned. For some patients, grafts could be required for greater support. If the fracture is the result of a forceful blow, you may also have fracture of the cartilage, and the procedure would resolve your cartilage and bone injuries. Complex breaks could necessitate more involved surgeries. Your rhinoplasty procedure would be tailored to the severity of the trauma experienced, in addition to your functional and aesthetic goals – patients can also ask the surgeon to resolve other nasal defects, for example, a bulbous tip, bump along the bridge or oversized nostrils. Regarding the technique used, advanced open or closed surgery are both options available and your surgeon will assess the best method for your case.

For Rhinoplasty Surgery after sports injuries, we are able to offer renowned highly experienced Consultant Plastic Surgeons with specialist knowledge in reconstruction, who achieve outstanding results.

Scarring

Scars from injury are common in several sports, from boxing, soccer, skateboarding and cycling, which can lead to nasty cuts and scrapes, to hockey where the face is uncovered and left vulnerable to impact from sticks, pucks or people. And these scars are usually permanent. If the scar is troubling you, there are highly effective scar reduction options available.

For scars from such sporting injuries, Surgical Scar Excision may be the best option, which can reduce the size of or reposition scars. Available techniques for Surgical Scar Excision include the following:

  • Excision and Direct Skin Closure: This technique requires cutting out the scar, followed by drawing and stitching together the surrounding skin, to leave a much neater, new scar
  • Excision and skin grafting: The scar is cut out and replaced with a skin graft, taken from a healthy area of the body. The skin grafts can be either full thickness or partial
  • Excision and repositioning: This method again necessitates cutting out the scar, while changing its direction so it runs alongside a relaxed and natural skin tension line

At The Private Clinic, we will offer you medical assessment and scar treatment, within our state-of-the-art rooms for minor surgery, at one of our clinics nearest to you. You will be treated by some of the county’s most experienced surgeons and doctors, including top Consultant Dermatologists, who are all highly skilled in surgical scar excision, and have the ability to treat different severities of scarring.

Many clinics are unable to treat patients who have darker skin, due to the difficulty of delivering the desired results, or due a lack of the specific skills required. However, at The Private Clinic, our practitioners have effectively treated hundreds of patients, and have built up the required experience to achieve excellent results every time.

Why choose The Private Clinic?

With over 34 years’ experience in the cosmetic industry, and being voted as Best Cosmetic Surgery Practice UK in the MyFaceMyBody Awards, with The Private Clinic, you can have peace of mind you are in safe hands.

Vaser Liposuction vs CoolSculpting

September 25, 2017 by Rebecca Giffen Leave a Comment

When it comes to body contouring there are a variety of different treatments and procedures about that claim to tackle the issue.

Vaser Liposuction

Vaser Liposuction is a minimally invasive treatment aimed at contouring and shaping the body. Usually performed under local anaesthetic with the option of sedation, the process involves making small incisions in the area to be treated before small probes are then inserted and used to transmit the ultrasound energy and liquefy fat cells prior to removal via a gentle suction process.

The Private Clinic’s Doctors have performed over 7,000 VASER Liposuction treatments to date, more than any other clinic in Europe. We were the first clinic to launch Vaser in the UK.

All Vaser Liposuction procedures will take place in our boutique hospital in Fiztroy Square, London.

Consultations for Vaser Liposuction take place at London Harley Street with our expert liposuction surgeon.

Consultations with our patient coordinators are also available in Leeds, Manchester, Birmingham and Northampton

CoolSculpting/ Fat Freezing / Cryolipolysis

CoolSculpting is more commonly referred to as fat freezing which is essentially the aim of the procedure. CoolSculpting works by delivering carefully controlled cooling which targets the fat cells underneath the skin. Post-treatment your body will begin to naturally process and eliminate the dead fat cells which reduce the number of fat cells in your body.

CoolSculpting is an FDA approved non surgical fat reduction treatment with over 7 million treatments carried out worldwide. CoolSculpting is offered at The Private Clinic in collaboration with world expert, Dr Tracy Mountford, MBBS MBCAM (GMC Number: 3085451). All of our practitioners have been to CoolSculpting University and have been personally trained by Dr Tracy Mountford who is the only UK doctor on the International Allergan CoolSculpting faculty.

CoolSculpting Fat Freezing treatment is available in London, Devonshire place which is just a short 5 minute walk from our London Harley Street clinic, Stoke Poges in Buckinghamshire, Manchester, Leeds and Birmingham.

CoolSculpting and Vaser Liposuction are often the most commonly researched when it comes to picking a procedure for removing areas of fat. But how do they compare?

Vaser Liposuction CoolSculpting
Immediate Results Gradual Results
Couple of days downtime Minimal downtime
Local Anaesthetic (and Sedation if required) No need for anaesthetic
Precise contouring Does not provide body contouring
Larger areas can be targeted Areas may be treated limited to application head
Treatment takes between 1-2 hours Treatment time as little as 35 minutes per session
Vaser Liposuction price starts from £2,940 CoolSculpting price starts from £800

At the same time, for those looking to treat smaller areas of stubborn fat, we also offer MicroLipo (Microcannular Tumescent Liposuction) which is the least invasive liposuction treatment available. Perfect for smaller areas such as your chin, arms and abdomen it is able to remove stubborn fat using microcannulas which results in a reduced downtime with many patients returning to work 48 hours after treatment.

If you are unsure about which fat reduction treatment is going to be best for you, visit us for a consultation where you will be able to find out more about the treatment available and listen to our experts advice on which is going to give you the results that you are hoping to achieve.
