At Astrum Urgent Care, we provide consultant-led wound closure and suture care designed for optimal healing, minimal scarring, and patient comfort.
Our team of emergency physicians and surgeons use advanced techniques and medical-grade materials to treat lacerations, cuts, and injuries quickly and safely – without the wait of traditional hospital care.
Whether caused by an accident, sport, or minor trauma, Astrum ensures every wound receives the attention it deserves, restoring both function and confidence.
Unlike mammograms, this innovative test is non-contact, comfortable, and highly accurate – making it suitable for women of all ages, including those with dense breast tissue.
We use plastic-surgery-grade suturing and premium materials to promote fast healing and natural-looking recovery.
All wound closures are performed or supervised by experienced doctors and surgeons for safe, precise results.
Walk in or book instantly — our urgent care team is available 24/7 for prompt treatment of cuts and lacerations.
Follow-up dressing checks and scar-care advice ensure comfort, confidence, and complete healing.
Each wound is carefully assessed for depth, contamination, and tissue damage before being sterilised and prepared for closure.
Depending on the location and severity, we use absorbable or non-absorbable sutures, skin adhesives, or steri-strips to achieve optimal closure and aesthetics.
Patients receive detailed home-care instructions and, if required, a scheduled removal or review appointment. We also provide prescription antibiotics to prevent infection when clinically indicated.
At Astrum, wound care doesn’t stop at closure. Our integrated team includes plastic surgeons and skin specialists available for complex cases, revision work, or scar-reduction therapies – combining medical precision with cosmetic refinement.
If bleeding doesn’t stop after 10 minutes of pressure, or if the wound is deep, wide, or located on the face or joints, seek immediate care. Early closure reduces infection and scarring.
We use local anaesthetic to ensure the process is virtually painless. Most patients feel only mild pressure during the procedure.
Thermalytix™ is suitable for women of all ages, including younger women and those with dense breast tissue. It can be used as a primary screening tool or alongside other clinical assessments.
This varies by wound type and location, but most heal within 7–14 days. Dissolvable sutures may absorb naturally over time.
Some degree of scarring is natural, but our precision techniques minimise visibility. We also offer scar-care and laser resurfacing options within our clinic for enhanced cosmetic results.
Astrum Urgent Care provides consultant-led wound management using plastic-surgery-grade suturing techniques to ensure safe healing and minimal scarring. Our clinic offers 24/7 access in Knightsbridge, allowing patients to receive expert treatment without long waits. Every procedure includes full aftercare support, with dressing reviews and scar-care guidance for optimal recovery.
