Statement: Dr. Mo Akhavani is a London-based plastic surgeon and the leading hand surgery specialist on the GMC specialist register. Dr. Akhavani specializes in all aspects of hand surgery, including the repair of traumatic injuries, fractures, and other chronic conditions such as carpal tunnel syndrome and Dupuytren’s disease.

Having performed well over 3,000 plastic surgery operations, Dr. Akhavani also has expertise in cosmetic breast surgery—including breast augmentation and lifts, breast implant removal, breast reduction, and gynecomastia surgery—as well as tummy tucks, liposuction, labiaplasty, and complete mummy makeovers.

His National Health Service practice at the Royal Free Hospital in London focuses on concerns such as upper limb reconstruction, body contouring following extensive weight loss, and skin cancer management.

“In all my work, I endeavor to bring deep empathy, surgical finesse, and academic excellence to the treatment process. It’s what enables me to offer my patients the highest standards and achieve exceptional results,” says Dr. Akhavani.

Dr. Akhavani received his medical degree from St. George’s Hospital School in London. After finishing his general surgical rotation, he trained extensively in both reconstructive plastic surgery and cosmetic surgery in London, Manchester, and Toronto. He’s one of very few plastic surgeons based in the United Kingdom to hold both the British and European Diplomas in Hand Surgery.

A leader in his field, Dr. Akhavani has won numerous academic prizes for his outstanding contributions to plastic surgery, including the British Association of Plastic Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgeons (BAPRAS) European Fellowship, the BMI Healthcare Fellowship Award, the Dunhill Medical Research Award, the Federation of European Societies for Surgery of the Hand (FESSH) Travel Award, and the British Society for Surgery of the Hand (BSSH) Best Paper Award.

A committed academic, Dr. Akhavani has published over 30 articles in peer-reviewed plastic surgery journals. He also earned the prestigious Hunterian Professorship from the Royal College of Surgeons of England in 2009 for his pioneering research in plastic surgery and is a faculty member on the British Society for Surgery of the Hand (BSSH) educational committee promoting the education of future surgeons. His current research in hand transplants is funded by a grant from the BSSH.

In addition to his passion for hand surgery, Dr. Akhavani is the pioneer of the BEST (Body Enhancing Speedy Transformation) body contouring technique, which uses a highly efficient fat transfer system to optimize results. He is the chairman of the Body Contour committee of the British Association of Plastic Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgeons (BAPRAS).

Dr. Akhavani is a Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons of England and an active member of the British Association of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons (BAPRAS), the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (BAAPS), and the British Society of Surgery of the Hand (BSSH).

Having an all over itch 3 days post op is not normal. There could be a plethora of reasons, but most common at this stage is likely to be a reaction to your medication. Please contact your PS to discuss this.

Is it Okay to Have Alcohol 2 Weeks After Breast Augmentation?
Mar 21, 2018
As long as you are off all narcotic based analgesia , then it should be fine. Alcohol in moderation is fine 2 weeks post surgery given that you are off all meds. However, you should still be careful and wear your support bra as additional support.

The trouble with vaping is the nicotine content. Nicotine dcreases blood flow and can reduce the healing potential of a fresh scar. It is best to avoid all nicotine products 4 weeks before and after surgery. This is what I ask of my patients.

Will my Breast Ever Get Soft After a Breast Augmentation? If Yes, How Long Will It Take?
Mar 21, 2018
As a general rule it can take upto 12 months or even more for the swelling to go down, implants to drop into position and for breasts to feel softer. If you still have concerns, check in with your doctor who can examine you in person if needed.

In Breast Augmentation, Does Size Decrease As the Swelling Goes Down?
In Breast Augmentation, Does Size Decrease As the Swelling Goes Down?
Mar 21, 2018
It takes around 12 months for the swelling to settle completely. Then you can make a better judgement of the size. At this early stage, I would not worry too much over 50cc. Main thing now is to concentrate on your recovery.
How long do I sleep in a bra after my Breast Augmentation?
How long do I sleep in a bra after my Breast Augmentation?

My patients wear their supportive bra for 6 weeks 24/7. It helps with swelling, recovery and comfort.
