Advanced robotic technology at Circle Health Group

There are many transformative benefits of robotic-assisted surgery. These include:

• A fast recovery time due to increased precision and accuracy
• Reduced risk of complications during surgery
• Reduced risk of scarring
• Less pain and discomfort after surgery
  
• Access to the latest technology with the best medical minds

A faster recovery and return to the life you love

Your consultant can use robotics to perform a complex surgery, making it far less invasive, despite having been previously performed as traditional, open surgery.

The less invasive, the smoother the recovery process more generally. This is because less damage is made to the tissue and nerves surrounding the cuts made on your body, helping control your comfort levels during your recovery period.

A speedier recovery means you can return the comfort of home sooner and get back doing the parts of your everyday life that make you feel like you. This includes:

• Driving
• Sport and exercise
• Daily chores and everyday tasks
• Sex
• Work

Enhanced emotional wellbeing after surgery

Robotic surgery not only enhances your physical healing process, but also helps boost your mental wellbeing after surgery. This is partly because robotics offers the advantage of minimal scarring, which can help improve your self-esteem if you are concerned about the appearance and maintenance of scars after surgery.

This feeling of confidence can help people return to daily life more smoothly without the added anxiety of their appearance. 

There is also the added benefit of being in less pain and discomfort than with traditional surgery. Being in pain can have a devastating impact on your emotional wellbeing.

With less pain and a faster return to movement, you can feel more at peace, in body and mind.
