Facial Reconstruction in Hertfordshire
Microvascular free-flap reconstruction of the face and jaw after cancer, trauma or congenital defects.
Hertfordshire patients needing microvascular reconstruction after facial cancer resection travel to Northwick Park (HA1 3UJ) for the operation itself — around 25 minutes via the M25/A404. All post-operative flap monitoring, HDU care and the first phase of rehabilitation happen on site; longer-term dental and speech rehabilitation can transfer back to Spire Bushey (WD23 1CE) for convenience.

About facial reconstruction
Facial reconstruction after cancer or trauma is one of the most technically demanding areas of oral and maxillofacial surgery. Mr Farook performs the full range of microvascular free flap procedures — radial forearm, anterolateral thigh, fibula and DCIA — including virtually planned mandibular reconstruction where the fibula is pre-cut on a 3D-printed cutting guide. Immediate dental implant placement into the reconstructed jaw is offered where oncologically safe, dramatically shortening the pathway from diagnosis to a functional dentition.
