Dupuytren’s Disease

Are you tired of living with the discomfort and limitations caused by Dupuytren’s Disease? Look no further! At Dr Foiz Ahmed, we are proud to offer a groundbreaking solution that can help you regain control of your life.

Dupuytren’s Disease is a condition where the tissue underneath the skin of your hand becomes thick and tight, forming a cord-like band that can cause your fingers to bend towards your palm. This can make it difficult to carry out simple everyday tasks, such as gripping objects or shaking hands.

Our experienced and skilled team, led by renowned Consultant Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon, Mr Foiz Ahmed, specializes in providing effective treatments for Dupuytren’s Disease. With our state-of-the-art surgical techniques and personalized approach, we can help you find relief and improve the function of your hand.

During the procedure, you will receive general anesthesia, ensuring your comfort throughout the surgery. The length of the surgery typically ranges from 1 to 2 hours, and you will usually stay in the hospital for one night. Afterward, you will need to take approximately 2 weeks off work and avoid strenuous exercise for 6 weeks.

To support the healing process, a compression garment will be recommended for 6 weeks. It is important to note that the full settling of the hand may take up to 18 months, but the majority of our patients experience significant improvement soon after the surgery.

At Dr Foiz Ahmed, we prioritize your safety and well-being. We understand that every patient is unique, which is why we offer personalized consultations to discuss your specific concerns and goals. Our team will guide you through every step of the treatment journey, ensuring you feel confident and comfortable along the way.

Don’t let Dupuytren’s Disease hold you back any longer. Take the first step towards a better quality of life by contacting us today. Book your consultation with Dr Foiz Ahmed, and let us help you regain control of your hand and your life.
