The clinic's newly available surgical option for total hip replacement, known as the Bikini procedure, helps patients to recover their full mobility faster and with less visible scarring. MSK Doctors in London have several specialists trained in this new minimally invasive procedure, and allows self-booking for consultation, diagnosis, or treatment, with no GP referral or waiting list.

This new, minimally invasive hip replacement technique employs a Direct Anterior Approach (DAA), which allows the surgical team to reduce damage caused to major muscles, tendons, and nerves in the patient's hip. In clinical trials, this approach has been shown to reduce recovery times, improve mobility, and help patients return to their normal daily activities sooner.
The MSK Doctors private hospital focuses on musculoskeletal conditions and advanced surgical techniques, which may not be available elsewhere. Although the Bikini DAA and other surgeries offered by MSK Doctors are thoroughly tested in clinical trials and approved, research suggests that it could be several years before they are widely available in the UK.
The new procedure allows a skilled surgeon to access the patient's hip while removing the requirement to cut important muscles and tendons, resulting in a stronger hip joint immediately after the operation. In clinical trials, this has been shown to reduce blood loss and the risk of dislocations or limping during the healing process.
The Bikini procedure, while similar in several ways to other DAA techniques, also uses a unique initial incision for the surgical team to hide any resulting scar tissue in the patient's “bikini line.” However, research suggests that the more skilled a surgeon is with this particular technique, the more effective they may be at hiding any resulting scarring.
An excerpt from the MSK Doctors website explains, “One of the main advantages of the direct anterior approach is the potential for faster recovery and rehabilitation. Studies have shown that patients who undergo THA using the DAA may experience less postoperative pain, have shorter hospital stays, and achieve better early outcomes in terms of pain relief and functional recovery.”
