Hand & Wrist Surgery
We offer a range of specialist hand and wrist procedures in London, including carpal tunnel surgery, Dupuytren’s contracture release, and trigger finger treatment. Our experienced surgeons provide fast, effective care with transparent self-pay pricing and minimal recovery time.
Carpel Tunnel Syndrome
from £1,895
What is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is a condition caused by compression of the median nerve as it passes through the wrist. It can lead to symptoms such as hand numbness, tingling, weakness, and wrist pain—especially at night or during repetitive hand activities.
When is Surgery Recommended?
Carpal tunnel release surgery is recommended when symptoms persist despite conservative treatments like wrist splints, rest, or steroid injections. It is a quick and effective outpatient procedure that relieves pressure on the nerve and restores hand function.
About the Procedure
- Type: Day-case, performed under local anaesthetic
- Duration: 15–30 minutes
- Recovery: Return to light activities within 1–2 weeks; full recovery in 6–12 weeks
Benefits of Carpal Tunnel Surgery
- Fast symptom relief
- Prevents long-term nerve damage
- Minimally invasive with minimal scarring
- High success rate
Dupuytren's Fasciectomy
from £2,195
What is Dupuytren’s Contracture?
Dupuytren’s contracture is a progressive hand condition where thickened tissue under the skin of the palm causes fingers—especially the ring and little fingers—to curl inward. It can limit your ability to grip, type, or perform daily tasks.
Treatment Options
We offer both traditional surgery and minimally invasive procedures:
- Needle Fasciotomy: Less invasive, fast recovery
- Open Fasciectomy: Comprehensive treatment for advanced cases
About the Procedure
- Duration: 30–90 minutes depending on severity
- Anaesthetic: Local or general
- Recovery: Light activities within 1–2 weeks, full recovery 6–8 weeks
Benefits of Dupuytren’s Surgery
- Improved finger extension
- Greater grip function
- Reduced recurrence (with open surgery)
- Minimal downtime with needle fasciotomy
Trigger Finger Release
From £1,895
What is Trigger Finger?
Trigger finger is a condition where your finger becomes stuck in a bent position and may suddenly pop straight. It’s caused by inflammation around the tendons in your hand. Symptoms may include pain, clicking, or stiffness—most commonly in the ring finger or thumb.
When is Surgery Needed?
If rest, splinting, or corticosteroid injections don’t provide relief, a minor surgical procedure called trigger finger release may be recommended. It is quick, effective, and usually performed under local anaesthetic.
About the Procedure
- Duration: 15–30 minutes
- Anaesthetic: Local
- Recovery: Back to daily activities in 1–2 weeks
Benefits of Trigger Finger Release
- Eliminates painful finger locking
- Fast return to function
- Minimal scarring and downtime
- Permanent solution in most cases
