Refine Your Appearance Through Minimally Invasive Surgical Procedures in London
Tempus Belgravia offers a range of surgical procedures in London that can subtly yet profoundly enhance your appearance and confidence. Whether you wish to remove an unsightly mole, lift sagging skin around the eyes, or improve scarring from past injuries, our experts use minimally invasive techniques to craft natural-looking outcomes.
Common skin growths such as moles, skin tags, and warts can detract from an otherwise clean complexion. Our dermatological surgeons expertly remove these with precision excision or laser treatments to leave smooth, unmarked skin behind. For those wishing to refine uneven skin texture, removing unwanted moles can make a big difference with little recovery time. As the years pass, loose, sagging skin can make us appear tired when we're not. Blepharoplasty, commonly known as an eye lift, tightens delicate eyelid skin and refreshes the entire face. By selectively removing extra skin, fat deposits and muscle from the upper and lower eyelids, our surgeons craft a more alert, rejuvenated appearance. Scars from injuries or surgery can also impact self-esteem over time. Our skilled surgeons expertly revise raised, red scars using customised scar remodelling techniques to blend marks into surrounding skin for a natural look.

What is Mole Removal Surgery?
Mole removal surgery involves removing moles that are either medically concerning or unwanted for cosmetic reasons. Depending on the mole’s individual characteristics, this procedure can be performed using various techniques. Excision with sutures involves cutting out the mole and stitching the skin back together. Shave excision involves using a small blade to shave off the mole. Laser removal uses a laser to destroy the mole cells. Cryotherapy involves freezing the mole off with liquid nitrogen. Radiofrequency ablation uses heat to destroy the mole cells. Your surgeon will recommend the most suitable technique for your specific case.
