Mr. Ash Mosahebi - Mt Vernon Surgeon MBBS(Lon) FRCS FRCS(Plast) PhD(Lon) MBA(Warwick) - Consultant Plastic Surgeon
Mr. Ash Mosahebi
Ash qualified at Guy's & St Thomas Medical school in London. His Plastic surgical training was
in London Deanery in some of the largest & busiest hospitals in UK. He has had further
specialist training in reconstructive & aesthetic surgery in New York & Belgium.
Ash is a Consultant & Honorary senior lecturer at Royal Free Hospital, University College Medical School, London. He is an author a number of publications & has lectured extensively worldwide. He is involved in pioneering research work on regenerating new tissues through new biomaterials & tissue engineering.
His specialist interest is congenital, cosmetic & reconstructive breast surgery. He is also an active member of the regional skin cancer network. In addition to his specialist area, Ash has expertise in all aspects of cosmetic & laser surgery as well as non-surgical rejuvenation. Ash also deals with complex soft tissue reconstruction following accident or cancer surgery.
"What I enjoy most about doing plastic surgery is that each patient's needs are different and each surgery has unique artistic requirements."
"As much as possible, I try to 'get into the patient's mind,' and find out what he or she thinks is attractive. I find that most patients want a natural look and are most concerned they might end up looking 'done'. The foremost question in my mind is 'can I make this patient happy?'"
