Facial Trauma Surgery in Hertfordshire

Consultant-led repair of fractures of the jaw, cheekbone, orbit and nose.

Hertfordshire patients with facial fractures diagnosed at Watford General or Lister Hospital can transfer their private care to Mr Farook at Spire Bushey (WD23 1CE) — the same CT imaging can usually be re-used to avoid a second radiation dose. Nasal fractures are ideally reduced within 10 days of injury.

The M1 and M25 give quick access from most of the county to the private hospitals in Bushey and Watford. Thameslink and London Overground services from St Albans, Watford Junction and Radlett reach central London in 20–35 minutes, making combined Hertfordshire + Harley Street pathways realistic for patients who want the flexibility.

About facial trauma surgery

Facial trauma covers mandibular (lower jaw) fractures, maxillary (upper jaw) and midface fractures including Le Fort I/II/III patterns, zygomatic (cheekbone) fractures, orbital floor blowout fractures, and nasal bone fractures. Timing matters: mandibular and zygomatic fractures are best fixed within 7–10 days before soft tissues swell and callus starts to form. Mr Farook uses closed reduction where possible and titanium miniplate fixation where the fracture pattern requires it, with all incisions placed inside the mouth or in hidden skin creases wherever feasible.
