Nov 12,2023The quality of care throughout was really good. In my initial consultation Dr Nurein explained everything in detail, and we discussed my expectations and how realistic they were. I was nervous about doing the surgery. However, on the day, everyone was really attentive and caring. This helped me relax. I am really happy with results so far and it is only ten days after the surgery. I am so happy I did the surgery with Dr Nurein. I would recommend anyone considering it to go and see him.

Nov 08,20232 weeks following my surgery and I am already blown away by the results. Wore a white T-shirt for the first time in years and wasn’t conscious about my appearance. Thank you

Sep 16,2023I had my gyno surgery in March 2023, I’m 47 years old and have wanted this surgery for 20 years but have been too afraid to go through with it. The surgery itself for me was not as bad as I imagined it would be, ok it’s not a great experience but it’s certainly doable! I would not trust anyone else with this surgery except Dr Nurein, he is very professional and skilled in this surgery. Unfortunately for me I was in the low percentage of people who have complications but even after an infection and seroma my results are life changing. Through the last few months during my complications Dr Nurein was very quick to reply to my messages and to offer advice, treatment and peace of mind, everything he told me about the healing process I went through turned out exactly as he said it would and I have complete trust in him. My case is still ongoing , I recently had scar tissue released from my right nipple and will be having a touch on the lipo later in the year due to some stubborn fat at the sides, this is all free of charge as Dr Nurein wants you to have the best possible results. I certainly have no regrets, even after a rough ride with recovery I can now where the clothes that I like and I do not get self conscious of my appearance anymore. If you have low self esteem about your gyno , don’t be scared of the surgery, I was terrified but really it’s not that bad and it’s really worth it as it will change your life. Thank you Dr Nurein and the team for your support and your patience with me.
A very happy customer
Sep 14,2023I cannot recommend Dr Nurein enough. I suffered with pronounced gynaecomastia since I hit puberty. It ruined my confidence which held me back from so many opportunities. After passing the big 3-0 I decided to bite the bullet and undergo the surgery with Dr. Nurein. I haven't looked back since. I had my first operation in September last year. The team were superb. I received professional and compassionate care throughout the process. Although the first operation made a huge difference, I still had some stubborn residual fat on my left side. Dr Nurein had me in for some additional minor surgery and later an injection to clear up some scar tissue. There was no extra cost and the results are hard to believe. It has transformed how I look and my self-confidence. I finally feel comfortable in my body. I recommended the surgery to my brother who also suffered from puffy nipples. He has since undergone surgery with Dr Nurein and is as happy with it as I am. If you are considering this surgery Dr Nurein is the best surgeon you could hope for. I'd like to thank him and his team for genuinely changing my life.

Aug 31,2023I had my surgery this morning with Dr Nurein and his team. I was fairly anxious about it all but honestly the whole team are fantastic. The nurses really understand how you are feeling and put you at ease. There is great communication throughout the whole process. Clearly this is a team that are at the top of their game. The results were immediate to see afterwards and I’m sure once the swelling etc goes down I will be even more pleased with the result. Brilliant service by all involved, thank you so much.

Aug 26,2023When I was a teenager I underwent a gland removal which was performed by the NHS. It left me with a bad crater deformity and I have avoided removing my shirt in public my entire adult life. Dr Nurein gave me revision surgery with lipo and a fat transfer. The results have far exceeded what I thought was possible; my chest looks totally normal. I have just returned from a beach holiday during which I spent my time shirtless at the seaside. I send heartfelt thanks to the entire team.

Aug 09,2023As a doctor, I wanted the best surgeon possible for my gynaecomastia operation. After consulting with other prominent plastic surgeons, I decided on Dr Nurein. As he is solely focused on gynaecomastia, he is the most experienced UK surgeon. Furthermore, I believe his professional background, which is more focused on cosmetic surgery as opposed to plastics, gave him a deeper understanding and appreciation of desirable male chest aesthetics. The operation itself went very smoothly. I was impressed with the professional and efficient setup as well as the very supportive nursing team. Recovery was as expected in line with the provided post-operative guidance. The results were truly life changing. My chest's appearance looks radically different both with and without clothing. In the 6 months since my operation I no longer think twice about taking my shirt off nor do I worry about how clothing fits. The gynaecomastia related insecurities that dominated my life since my teenage years have now been completely eliminated thanks to Dr Nurein.

Aug 02,2023What can I say, Dr Nurein is a grade A+ surgeon in every aspect I can think of. The first thing I will say is that he is a very nice person and easy to talk to about any concerns you may have. He will tell you exactly what is achievable and what isn't. In my case it was a revision due to the poor skills of the original surgeon that carried out some liposuction on my chest some years ago. That surgeon failed to remove/reduce the gland that I had on one side. He also did a bad job at removing the fat evenly, resulting in an uneven contour. My mistake was not choosing a 'specialist' gynocomastia surgeon in the first place. I naively went for the cheaper option in my home city. Dr Nurein managed to fix both these mistakes and I'm absolutely thrilled with the results. I no longer have any niggling daily thoughts in my head about my chest. I can't thank Dr Nurein enough for making that change in my life. The other thing I realised right from the outset is that Dr Nurein clearly want's to achieve the best result possible and offers a free touch up within the first 6 months, if necessary. Other surgeons who are mostly in it for the money, like the first surgeon I used, would not offer this to their patients. This was a huge deciding factor for me. It shows that Dr Nurein truly cares about his patients and the results of the procedure. After talking with Dr Nurein, I realised very quickly that he knew exactly what he was talking about. Given the sheer number of Gynocomastia operations he's carried out, there's no wonder he's become the best at what he does. What a legend :) Thanks again!

Jul 28,2023Mine was a grade 3 gynecomastia caused by a hormone imbalance resulting from treatment for prostrate cancer (100% testosterone suppression over 2 years). I had followed all the advice for non-surgical treatments including weight loss and exercising the chest muscles and none of it worked, if anything it made my man boobs look worse. I went to see Dr Nurein and he recommended liposuction, gland removal and skin excision using the circumareolar or 'donut' technique, where a ring of skin is removed from each breast around the areola and the two edges are then stitched together so that the scarring is limited to the edge of the areola. Dr Nurein has a video of him performing this same procedure on You Tube and watching it gave me the courage to go ahead with him. I can't really add anything to what so many people have already said about the procedure, it's painless, at most a bit of discomfort, even with skin excision my operation took just over an hour. Dr Nurein works quickly and skilfully with the confidence of a surgeon who knows exactly what he's doing because he's done it on countless other occasions, you always feel you're in safe hands. I'm now at 10 days post-surgery. The result is nothing short of transformational. I now have a flat chest but still with a nice definition and contour and I can finally see the chest muscles I worked so hard for. A really big thank you to Dr Nurein and his team for making what seems to be a daunting experience into something which is really quite doable.

Jul 25,2023Dr Nurein offers the best price for gynaecomastia surgery in the UK i decided to go ahead with the surgery and I'm impressed with the results I have had puffy nipples since I was 15 and now I no longer have them I can finally wear a shirt, sleep comfortably and I finally have a normal chest. I have not had any complications after the surgery

Jul 18,2023Some time ago now, I had the privilege of undergoing a cosmetic surgery procedure with Dr. Nurein and I am thrilled to share my experience. From the initial consultation to the final result, Dr. Nurein exhibited the utmost professionalism, skill, and compassion. I can confidently say that my journey with this extraordinary surgeon was nothing short of exceptional. Dr. Nureins clinic boasts a modern and welcoming environment. The facility is equipped with the latest technology and adheres to the highest standards of cleanliness and hygiene. From the reception area to the surgical suite, every aspect of the facility exudes professionalism and instils confidence in the quality of care provided. Big thank you to Dr Nurein! Big thank you to Olga who is a great patient coordinator- always there when you need her. Big thank you to Hanna, Sylwia and Aga- great nursing team! The entire staff at the clinic deserves recognition for their exceptional care and compassio. Everyone played a vital role in making my experience comfortable and stress-free. Their genuine concern for my well-being created a warm and welcoming atmosphere, and I felt genuinely cared for throughout my entire journey. Choosing Dr. Nurein as my surgeon was undoubtedly the best decision I made. Thank you again!

Jul 18,2023In my search for a UK based Gynecomastia specialist, I turned to the Gynecomastia forum on Reddit for testimonials. For several years, UK contributors to the subreddit have been almost unaminous in their advice: use Dr. Nurein. In particular, Dr Nurein's services are lauded for his aftercare and the inclusion of any touch-ups that are deemed required within six months of the initial surgery. Dr Nurein has a Youtube channel which contains a video of him performing the surgery, and answers Q&As about subjects such as "doughnut deformity". In the weeks and days leading up to my surgery, I found these videos extremely useful for expectation management and psychological preparation. Dr Nurein's nurses are fantastic company during the procedure, keeping you calm, holding your hand and making you laugh! At times, my surgery was very uncomfortable (low personal pain threshold sadly) and those wonderful nurses got me through the difficult parts. I am very grateful to them. Once the work is done, before you have even left the building, you are immediately messaged via WhatsApp with postcare instructions and are called 24 hours after treatment to check your progress. You are asked to send progress photos after approx 10 days, which are checked by Dr Nurein, and you are given tailored followup postcare instructions. You can also use the WhatsApp number to send and discuss any concerns throughout the recovery. After this, you are asked to book to come in after 2 and 4-6 months for a review of your progress. These visits are included in the price. I am currently at the two month point. My chest looks significantly better and my nipple scars are barely visible, but I do still have some fullness that I want to address. As agreed in the service, Dr Nurein has stated that if the fullness is still present as I approach the six month mark, he will do a touch-up. I feel in fantastic hands. I am so pleased that I was pointed towards Dr. Nurein. It is my pleasure to recommend him.

Jun 26,2023Dr. Hassan Nurein made the whole procedure and operation a pleasant experience and despite the somewhat expensive price tag that comes with Gynecomastia Surgery (although it is somewhat fairly priced compared to other clinics) the whole experience was amazing. I would definitely do it again if I needed to and the aftercare was amazing. Barely felt anything during the operation and only felt the initial injections and some of the electricity that he used. The results have been 95% successful I would say with only very minor differences between each nipple (which don't bother me on a day-to-day basis). For anyone considering surgery, I would strongly recommend it as it has changed my life. I feel free now and can wear T-Shirts like normal especially in this hot weather right now. As for the recovery, it was very quick and I felt normal after 2 weeks. Even right after the surgery I only felt some minor bruising and painkillers helped with that. Overall, I am super happy with my experience and it has really been life-changing.

Jun 15,2023Doctor Nurein has good results for most individuals seeking gynecomastia surgery. His staff is friendly and accommodating. His aftercare team took great care of me giving me all the required instructions I needed and were quick to respond to my texts. The surgery experience was fast and I didn't feel a thing under local anesthetic. The results were great and natural Dr Nurein is a sound communicator professional and very knowledgeable. Very highly skilled at what he does. He listened to my concerns and guided me through the procedure with ease. Where he failed was he wasn't able to entirely deliver. For individuals that developed gynecomastia from performance enhancing drugs or developed it from certain medications such as anti -androgens eg finasteride or spironolactone That wish to continue taking these drugs after surgery. Should be very careful when choosing a provider We are a special/ difficult case to resolve because we require the entire gland to be expelled Dr Nurein doesn't take out the entire gland in his approach. This is for aesthetic reasons, but this can cause a rebound effect of gynecomastia as the drugs may cause the issue to reappear in these patients making the results short lived. Dr Nurein will only remove the entirety of the gland in specific cases, but he doesn't specialize in methods such as the internal flap technique or other specialized techniques to give individuals like myself permanent aesthetic results. If you are a bodybuilder wishing to get this surgery and still take steriods afterwards or and individual suffering from male pattern baldness and wish to continue finasteride/ dutasteride treatment after surgery. Then your better off going to a different provider who specializes in techniques to deal with this difficult case. If you are someone that doesn't wish to take any drugs after surgery or developed gynecomastia through puberty then Dr Nurein is an exceptional surgeon you should definitely consider. His results are aesthetic and natural looking. This Is my current opinion but it Is subject to change if he's able to deliver in the future.

May 03,2023Choosing Dr Nurein for my gynecomasia surgery was the best decision I’ve made! Right from my initial consultation I felt at ease. I had my surgery at the London clinic and the staff were extremely helpful. Dr Nurein explained the procedure to me ensuring I knew exactly what was being done. The nurses were so friendly and helped to put any nerves out of my mind. The actual surgery felt pretty quick and I barely felt anything under local anaesthetic. The aftercare team took great care of me giving me all the instructions I needed and were quick to respond to any messages. I returned to the clinic after 6 months and despite my results being great I did develop some scar tissue. Dr Nurein offered to remove it free of charge and my appointment was arranged within a couple of days. Much like the first surgery this one went smoothly. It’s now just over 2 weeks since getting the scar tissue removed and I couldn’t have made a better decision than going with Dr Nurein. Anyone who is thinking of getting this surgery done - do it, it’s life changing!

May 01,2023Absolutely great service and felt very very reassured with it all and the after care has been amazing. The results and look after surgery have been absolutely amazing and beyond my expectations.

Apr 05,2023Extremely pleased with my results! After previously having the surgery done in turkey and not being completely satisfied I reached out to Dr Nurein. He decided to remove more gland and lipo to achieve the aesthetic look I wanted. A big thing to comment on is the aftercare, I’ve seen Dr Nurein 3 times since the operation due to some residue scar tissue which we have now almost resolved. It’s good to know you’re not forgotten about once the surgery has been done. 10/10

Mar 29,2023I just wish I could give more than 5 stars! This man is an expert in what he does and I am already amazed at the results only 11 days post op. The nurses and himself explained to me everything I needed to know and helped calm me down and honestly made it a great experience. Anyone considering getting this operation done look no further and get booked in with Dr hassan

Mar 16,2023The moment I decided to get in contact with the Dr I was treated with complete care and respect. It was an easy process and entering the surgery I knew I was in good hands and amazing care from the nurses and Dr Nurein. They were all so caring and had my best interest in mind. Very professionally done and would recommend him to anyone with the same issues I had. I am very thankful to him and the nurses.

Nov 19,2023This was a fairly quick process from initial consultation to having the surgery. The surgery was very quick too, i think i was in and out in under two hours with the actual surgery itself under one hour. Its very clear from the start they are all very experienced and a great team. My results have been pretty good and i still have more healing to go. I would definitely recommend Dr Nurein.
