Lipedema

Lipedema is a chronic and progressive condition characterized by the excessive accumulation of fat cells in the legs and arms, typically in a disproportionate manner relative to the rest of the body. It primarily affects women and is often misdiagnosed as obesity or lymphedema. Lipedema can cause pain, swelling, and tenderness in the affected areas, and can also lead to mobility issues and reduced quality of life.Conservative treatment in the form of compression therapy, nutritional advice and manual lymphatic drainage may help slow the progression of the disease. In cases of failed conservative treatment, functional liposuction of the affected areas can provide symptom reduction and improvement in mobility as well as quality of life.

Reconstructive Surgery

Reconstructive surgery is a type of surgical procedure that is performed to repair or rebuild a part of the body that has been damaged, lost, or deformed due to injury, illness, congenital abnormalities, or other medical conditions. The goal of reconstructive surgery is to restore the affected body part to as close to its normal form and function as possible, while also improving the patient’s quality of life.

  I recently had a breast reduction surgery performed by Dr Georgiou with a truly beautiful result. From the initial consultation till today, Dr Georgiou has been amazing. An absolute professional but at the same time a kind, polite human. The support and understanding I received from the beginning and especially post surgery is truly unbelievable. He never missed a text or a call. I highly recommend him! Dr Georgiou thank you very much for everything!

  I have been following Dr Georgiou and his work for a number of years now, and recently had the privilege of being under his care for lipoedema reduction surgery.  Dr Georgiou is a truly exceptional surgeon.  His surgical and professional excellence, skill and care, coupled with his dedication to patient needs set him apart.  He is genuine, honest, and has the kindest of souls.  Dr. Georgiou is also an excellent communicator, with the most compassionate and empathetic approach, making the entire experience reassuring.  But more than that, lipoedema care in the UK has always been a challenge due to the medical community having a lack of knowledge in this condition, and without a clear approach to medical care and support.  So when you meet a surgeon like Dr Georgiou, well it is lifechanging.  To be heard, understood, and fully supported throughout the prep, the surgery, and just as importantly post-surgery was amazing!  Words really don’t seem enough but if you are considering lipoedema reduction surgery then I highly recommend Dr Georgiou and the wider team at GOC for anyone seeking excellent medical care with a truly human touch.  I'm just three weeks post surgery but already the results are changing my life !!

  I first heard about Dr Georgiou through a Facebook Group of women who suffer from Lipedema. From my first consultation to surgery, to now has been absolutely amazing! The care and support has been incredible, as well as the fabulous results I have already seen in my legs since the surgery. The German Oncology Centre in Limassol is also fantastic, and I received the best care before, during, and after my procedure. I would absolutely recommended Dr Georgiou to everybody. He is the kindest and most sincere person, and I cannot thank him enough for what he has already done for me! 👏🏼👏🏼

  On Oct. 11, I had a lipedema surgery performed at the GOC with the incredible Dr. Georgiou. He was so responsive and informative from the first time that I emailed him to begin this journey to a healthier me. Dr. Georgiou has been in constant, personal communication in the form of texts and video chats - whatever was needed to help me feel comfortable and safe when coming alone to a foreign country.  I plan to have all of my surgeries with him as I trust his judgment and sound advice explicitly. I can’t imagine a more compassionate doctor than him. He is human first and then an expert doctor ❤️

  The best possible care of the doctor, had an experience of botulinum toxin treatment, very smoothly it went, with attentive attitude and sharing all the details on each step of the procedure. Guess is the best experience for now for me in terms of face cosmetological injections. Already made up a plan with a doctor to go on with other treatments, many thanks, Dr.Georgiou
