This is where UKSKIN general anaesthetic procedures happen.

Langham Hospital, situated in the heart of the Harley Street health and medical district in London, is where UKSKIN performs all of its general anaesthetic cases.

The anaesthetic machine is operated by a fully qualified anaesthetist who remains present and monitoring throughout every general anaesthetic procedure. Alongside that sits the VASERlipo system, used for precise ultrasound assisted fat removal, Renuvion for skin tightening, and a smoke evacuator, a piece of equipment that maintains a clean and safe surgical environment throughout the procedure. Every piece of technology in that theatre has a purpose, and every piece contributes directly to the quality and safety of the patient’s outcome.

When patients choose UKSKIN for a general anaesthetic procedure, this is the standard they are choosing. Not just expert surgeons, but a world class facility equipped to deliver the most advanced surgical techniques available in cosmetic surgery today.

UKSKIN has clinics in London, Manchester and Birmingham. Click the link in our bio to start your journey, or comment UKSKIN below and we will send everything straight to your inbox.

Before a single incision is made, this is what happens. Dr Apostolos scrubbing in for a major gynaecomastia case at UKSKIN.

Scrubbing up is not a formality. It is the first step in a surgical standard that runs through every single case at UKSKIN, from the smallest procedure under local anaesthetic to the most complex cases performed at Langham Hospital, where all UKSKIN general anaesthetic procedures take place. This video follows the full process from start to finish, and the precision and care that goes into every stage of it.

UKSKIN shares this kind of content because patients deserve to see what happens behind theatre doors, not just the before and after. The preparation, the environment, the surgical team and the attention to detail at every step. This is what every UKSKIN patient receives as standard, and it starts long before the patient is on the table.

Gynaecomastia surgery at UKSKIN is tailored entirely to the individual. No fixed approach, no standard template. What Dr Apostolos does in theatre is a direct reflection of the plan built around that specific patient in consultation, and the surgical precision that carries through from the moment he scrubs in to the final stitch.

Rated 4.9 stars from over 700 reviews on Trustpilot, UKSKIN is one of the highest rated cosmetic surgery clinics in the UK. That rating is built on exactly what you are watching in this video.

Gynecomastia is not always equal on both sides. When it is not, the surgical approach has to reflect that.

Asymmetric Gynecomastia, where one side is significantly larger than the other, is more common than most people realise. It is also one of the presentations that demands the most careful and considered surgical planning. In this video Dr Apostolos walks through exactly how UKSKIN approaches a case where one side carries considerably more glandular tissue than the other, and why symmetry is the priority from the very first assessment.

The goal is never simply to reduce. It is to achieve balance. That means the surgical approach on each side must be individually calibrated, with a different volume of tissue addressed on the larger side while carefully preserving enough on the smaller to create a result that is even, natural and proportionate. Treating both sides identically in an asymmetric case would produce an asymmetric result, and that is precisely what UKSKIN sets out to avoid.

This is what truly tailored gynaecomastia surgery looks like. Not a standard procedure applied to every patient, but a plan built entirely around what is there, what needs addressing and what the finished result should look like. Symmetry is not an afterthought at UKSKIN. It is the priority.

If you have noticed a difference between your two sides and have been wondering whether surgery can address it, the answer is yes. UKSKIN has clinics in London, Manchester and Birmingham.

He trains hard, has built an impressive physique, and still could not get rid of his chest. This is why.

This patient came to UKSKIN having dedicated years to the gym. Large muscles, low body fat, a physique that reflected the work he had put in. But no amount of training had touched his chest, because the issue was never fat or muscle to begin with. It was a gynaecomastia gland, and a gland cannot be trained away.

Dr Apostolos performed liposuction removing 500ml of fat alongside full gland excision, addressing both the glandular tissue and the surrounding area to deliver a chest contour that finally matches the rest of his physique. This is one of the most common presentations UKSKIN sees in active, gym going patients, and it is also one of the most frustrating to live with precisely because the harder they train, the more prominent the contrast becomes.

Gynaecomastia is not a reflection of fitness level, diet or dedication. It is glandular tissue that is present regardless of how lean or muscular the patient is. Surgery is the only way to remove it, and for men who are already in good shape, the transformation following gland excision and liposuction can be extraordinary.

If you train regularly and have never been able to shift your chest regardless of how hard you work, it may well be gynaecomastia. UKSKIN has clinics in London, Manchester and Birmingham.

Gynecomastia is graded from 1 through to 4, with grade 4 representing the most severe presentation. Grade 3 still involves a substantial amount of excess glandular tissue, fat and skin laxity that creates a chest profile far removed from what the patient wants to see. For men living with grade 3 gynaecomastia, the impact on confidence, clothing choices and daily life can be profound. It is not something that improves with diet, exercise or time.

Dr Apostolos at UKSKIN addressed this patient’s grade 3 gynaecomastia with a comprehensive surgical plan tailored entirely to the degree and nature of his presentation. The result speaks for itself. A flat, natural chest contour, a patient who can finally feel at ease in his own body and a transformation that no amount of time in the gym could have delivered.

Grade 3 gynaecomastia requires an experienced surgical hand and a thorough understanding of what each individual case demands. At UKSKIN, no two procedures are the same, and the approach is always built around the patient’s specific anatomy, grade and goals rather than a standard template.

Ten minutes per side. Under local anaesthetic. Full facial rejuvenation. This is upper blepharoplasty with Dr Apostolos at UKSKIN.

Most people assume eyelid surgery is a major undertaking. In reality, upper blepharoplasty is one of the most efficient procedures in cosmetic surgery. What Dr Apostolos addresses in this case takes ten minutes per side, and the transformation it delivers is completely disproportionate to the time involved.

In this procedure, a small amount of excess skin is removed from the upper eyelid, a precise amount of muscle tissue is addressed, and an internal fat pocket is carefully excised. Each element plays a specific role in the overall result. The skin removal lifts and opens the eye. The muscle work refines the contour. The fat pocket removal reduces puffiness and heaviness that no skincare can address. Together they deliver a complete rejuvenation of the upper face that looks entirely natural.

The procedure is performed under local anaesthetic, meaning the patient is awake, comfortable and completely pain free throughout. There is no general anaesthetic, no hospital stay and no lengthy recovery. Most patients are back to normal daily activity within one to two weeks, with the full result continuing to refine over the following months.
