A consultant-led service offering minor surgical procedures, vein treatments and injectable solutions designed to address common skin, vascular and body contour concerns in a clinical setting.
This service is delivered by Consultant Surgeon Mr Arturo Almeida and includes a range of medically led procedures tailored to individual patient needs.
Following a thorough consultation, treatment options may include minor surgical removal of benign skin lesions such as moles, cysts and skin tags, as well as assessment and management of vein concerns including thread veins and varicose veins where appropriate.
In addition, injectable treatments such as Aqualyx® may be used to target localised pockets of fat that are resistant to lifestyle measures, while Alidya® can be considered for patients concerned with the appearance of cellulite. Each treatment is planned following a detailed clinical assessment to ensure suitability and safety.
Results vary depending on the procedure and individual response, with full aftercare guidance provided. The emphasis is always on informed decision-making, realistic expectations and medically appropriate care within a consultant-led environment.
