Surgery has come a long was over the last 30 years. Since 1989 instead of making big cuts of traditional open surgery on the abdomen or chest we can do the same operations with smaller cuts by Laparoscopic/ Keyhole/ Minimal invasive surgery.

Standard Laparoscopic surgery is being done for more than 30 years; since last Millennium! The same operations are being done in Europe, US, Middle East and Asia as 34 years back!!

In 1990s Laparoscopic Surgery was a major advance on traditional open surgery and it improved:

• The pain scores (down from 5-7/10 to 3/10)
• Wound size (down from 15-30 cm to 4-5 cm)
• Recovery time (down from 2-6 weeks to 1-2 weeks)
• Return to driving (down from 2-6 weeks to 3-14 days)
• Return to lifting heavy weight (down from 4-6 weeks to 3-4 weeks)
• Return to Flying (from 1-4 weeks to 1 day – 2 weeks)
• Return to work (from 1-6 weeks to 1 day to 3 weeks)

After having learned and mastered the skills early on in his career in Ireland and United Kingdom in the best centers in 1990s, Professor Amir Nisar focused on improving the pain scores, patient experience, cosmetics, recovery time, return to activity, exercise, driving and flying. The journey for minimalistic approach and betterment started around 1998 and is still ongoing.

Professor Amir Nisar has come up with many innovative approaches in Laparoscopic surgery to make the cuts so small that the scars are hardly visible after surgery in majority of the cases. The common surgeries performed by Professor Amir Nisar are for Gall bladder, Hernias, Heartburn/reflux and appendicectomy. These principals are also applied for other Laparoscopic operations. There are eight additional parameters during his standard Laparoscopic and MiniScarLess (MSL) surgery apart from the small cuts and smaller instruments that helps reduce the pain and improve recovery in patients undergoing surgery. Professor Amir Nisar and his team follow the protocols with due diligence to achieve excellent outcomes in terms of best possible patient experience and recovery.

Mini Scar Less (MSL) Laparoscopic Surgery offers great experience to the patients in terms of better cosmesis, less post operative pain and quick recovery than standard laparoscopic surgery. Return to work and exercise is much earlier with MiniScarLess (MSL) surgery as well.

Patients are benefitting from innovative MiniScarLess (MSL) surgery under Professor Amir Nisar’s care are from the following conditions:

• Gall Bladder and Gall stones disease 

(Requiring Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy)

• Hernias (Inguinal/ Femoral/ Obturator/ Umbilical/ Epigastric/ Incisional)

(Requiring TEP or TAP Laparoscopic Repairs)

• Heartburn/ Reflux/ GERD 

(Requiring Laparoscopic Nissen’s Fundoplication)

• Appendicectomy and many other operations

MiniScarLess (MSL) Laparoscopic surgery with smaller cuts and the world’s first and minimalistic approach is only a basic requisite in Professor Amir Nisar’s clinical practice. He believes in excellent personal care and 24/7 availability for his patients. All his patients have his personal and only phone number for contact.
