Hand procedures at the European Institute of Plastic Surgery are conducted to regain mobility, alleviate discomfort, and optimise the overall range of motion of the manual limbs. Many individuals suffer from wrist and joint issues that disrupt daily tasks—including chronic motion stress to severe trauma. At the European Institute of Plastic Surgery, we provide advanced surgical solutions that address the intricate anatomy of the hand, including joints, fibrous bands, neural pathways, and articulations. If stemming from degenerative disease, injury, or neurological stress, each condition requires a highly tailored treatment plan. That’s why our procedures are performed by highly qualified surgeons using precise approaches such as microsurgery and the modern WALANT method, which allows individuals to stay alert during the procedure while experiencing no discomfort. Recovery care is an essential component of the care cycle. Our clients are given individualised recovery plans that focus on rebuild strength, flexibility, and fine motor skills as efficiently and smoothly as possible. With a focus on both practical and aesthetic results, the European Institute of Plastic Surgery ensures that each individual benefits from the top-tier quality of treatment throughout their process—from assessment to full recovery.
Median nerve compression is a frequent issue that happens when the main wrist nerve, which passes through a narrow passageway in the hand joint, becomes compressed. This can lead to problems such as tingling, pins and needles, and muscle fatigue, particularly in the thumb, pointer, and central fingers. At the European Institute of Plastic Surgery, median nerve decompression is a commonly carried out operation aimed at ease compression and restore optimal hand use. The operation includes making a minimal opening in the skin and cutting the transverse carpal ligament, which reduces pressure on the median nerve. Thanks to techniques like WALANT, many individuals can have this treatment comfortably without being fully sedated and even notice immediate relief. Recovery may involve wrist splinting, and a short rest phase, followed by targeted exercises to regain full capability and dexterity. With expert handling and careful planning, our team ensures that the recovery process is as comfortable and successful as expected. The purpose is to eliminate symptoms, halt further complications, and help individuals resume their usual routines with improved ease and use of their hand.
Cubital tunnel syndrome develops when the elbow nerve—also called the “funny bone” pathway—becomes pinched at the bend of the arm. This condition can cause discomfort, tingling, or prickling that travels through the lower arm and into the fourth and fifth digits. At the European Institute of Plastic Surgery, ulnar nerve decompression is performed to relieve this nerve entrapment and reduce the risk of long-term complications. The procedure consists of opening up the channel around the ulnar nerve by freeing the compressed structures, so as to enable better nerve mobility. Depending on the patient, the surgeon may also move the nerve to protect it. The technique is carried out under targeted anaesthetic, often on an outpatient basis. Recovery usually includes a brief downtime followed by targeted exercises to regain function and restore normal function. With EIPS's specialised expertise and tailored aftercare, clients typically report a significant reduction in symptoms and an improved ability to manage everyday activities.
Guyon’s canal syndrome, also known as ulnar tunnel syndrome, occurs when the nerve running through Guyon’s canal becomes pinched as it travels within a small tunnel in the carpal area called the wrist canal. This condition can result in grip difficulty, reduced sensation, and loss of dexterity, especially affecting the ring and little fingers. At the European Institute of Plastic Surgery, ulnar nerve decompression at the wrist is performed to eliminate entrapment and regain motor control. The surgical treatment involves identifying and releasing the structures that are constricting the affected structure, such as swollen tissues, without interfering with surrounding vital anatomy. By decompressing the wrist nerve, individuals often experience early improvements from pain and better coordination. The operation is typically carried out using minimally invasive anaesthetic, minimising downtime and encouraging a smoother recovery. At EIPS, each surgical plan is customised, with targeted recovery protocols aimed at restoring motion. With experienced hands and precision-based care, our focus is to help you recover comfort in their hand movements and resume their normal routines as swiftly and securely as practical.
De Quervain’s tenosynovitis is a bothersome inflammatory disorder involving the connective bands on the radial side of the wrist, often triggered by recurrent motion. People suffering from this condition typically feel difficulty when grasping, turning the wrist, or lifting items. At the European Institute of Plastic Surgery, we perform expert care for De Quervain’s tenosynovitis when conservative approaches such as immobilisation or anti-inflammatory medication no longer deliver sufficient improvement. The intervention requires making a small incision over the thumb-side tissue and strategically opening the constricted tunnel that is compressing their movement. This release allows the tendons to move freely again, relieving pain and restoring hand function. The procedure is typically performed under targeted anaesthetic and does not necessitate an overnight hospital stay. Postoperative recovery is straightforward, with most recipients engaging in gentle movement within a couple of weeks and eventually resuming regular hand use. Our specialists provides tailored support from consultation to recovery, guaranteeing that clients understand their recovery path and experience the optimal result. By correcting the root of the problem with precision, EIPS helps return comfort and function to the hand.
Ganglion cysts are benign, fluid-filled masses that often form near the joints or connective tissues of the hand. While they are typically not serious, they can become irritating, restrict movement, or interfere with daily function when located in sensitive regions. At the European Institute of Plastic Surgery, cyst excision is performed as an lasting approach for clients whose cysts do not respond to alternative options or keep recurring. The procedure involves the excision of the fluid mass along with its stalk to lower the chance of regrowth. Using precise surgical techniques, our team ensures damage to adjacent areas. The treatment is typically carried out under minimal sedation, and most patients can go home the same afternoon. Recovery is generally fast, with light use of the wrist allowed within a couple of days and full activity resuming in a short period. At EIPS, we prioritise not only removing the surface lump but also on preventing its return and restoring the overall function of the affected area. Our supportive strategy provides individuals feel informed throughout their healing experience—from diagnosis to complete healing.
Ruptured tendons in the manual region are often the outcome of trauma, such as cuts or forceful blows, and can significantly limit the range of motion. The flexor and extensor tendons are in charge of finger motion, and when they are damaged, surgical intervention is typically indicated to recover movement. At the European Institute of Plastic Surgery, our team performs procedures using highly specialised microsurgical techniques crafted to reattach these vital tissues with care. The focus is to bridge the rupture in the connective tissue and facilitate normal movement during activity. Surgery is usually performed under targeted anaesthetic, followed by a carefully structured recovery process. Because these tissues can be vulnerable to scarring and scar tissue, timely rehabilitation is crucial for restoring strength and strength. At EIPS, every patient receives a tailored therapy programme, with close follow-up to guide healing outcomes. Whether the case is recent or involves delayed treatment, our expert team operate with care to deliver results. Through evidence-based methods and strategic therapy, individuals can regain practical ability of their hand and resume daily tasks with confidence.
