London Bikini Incision DAA Hip Replacement With Fast Recovery Announced

Patients can now schedule their own appointments for hip replacement using the advanced Bikini Direct Anterior Approach surgery at MSK Doctors in London. This new surgical technique provides several important benefits over the traditional options regarding recovery times, post-operative stability, and scarring reductions.

While the Bikini approach has become popular due to its reduction in visible scarring, it has also been shown to help patients recover significantly faster due to the reduction in surgical trauma. Using this new technique, MSK Doctors surgeons can perform a complete hip replacement while minimising damage to important muscles and tendons, allowing most patients to return home the same day.

With a traditional hip replacement, patients are often required to spend several weeks with highly restricted mobility, due to the increased risk of dislocations. However, with the Bikini approach, patients can return home without mobility restrictions and can return to their normal activities within the first few weeks.

Research suggests that while this new surgical technique cannot prevent scarring, it can hide the scarring effectively in the bikini line when performed by an experienced surgeon. However, in clinical trials, it was shown that the optimal results came from surgical teams that had previous experience with this technique, and inexperienced surgical teams occasionally resulted in additional complications.

Patients can also access another new hip replacement technique, known as the SPAIRE procedure, which provides similar benefits but places less focus on preventing scarring. The SPAIRE technique also allows patients to go home soon after their operation, with no mobility restrictions, and a greatly reduced risk of dislocations.

The MSK Doctors hip replacement team has several specialists, including the clinic's founder, Prof. Paul Lee, who trained at the renowned Exeter Hip Unit. Prof. Paul Lee has extensive training and experience in both new hip replacement techniques, Bikini and SPAIRE, and accepts new clients with no GP referral required, and no waiting list.

An excerpt from the full report explains, "Both the SPAIRE and Bikini Hip Replacement techniques are advancements that reflect a patient-centric approach in orthopaedic surgery, focusing on minimising tissue damage, accelerating recovery, and in the case of the Bikini technique, improving aesthetic outcomes. The choice between the two may depend on various factors, including the specific anatomical, functional, and aesthetic concerns of the patient, as well as the surgeon's expertise with either technique."
