LLETZ Procedure in London
LLETZ Procedure Clinic in London
Expert LLETZ Treatment from Experienced Consultant Gynaecologists
A LLETZ procedure (Large Loop Excision of the Transformation Zone) is a highly effective treatment used to remove abnormal cervical cells before they have the opportunity to develop into cervical cancer. It is commonly recommended following cervical screening and colposcopy when moderate or severe cervical cell abnormalities are identified. Early treatment is highly successful and plays an important role in protecting your long-term cervical health.
At Gynaecology Clinic London, our experienced consultant gynaecologists perform LLETZ procedures in a professional, supportive, and discreet environment. We understand that being advised to undergo treatment can feel overwhelming, which is why we take the time to explain your diagnosis, discuss the procedure in detail, and ensure you feel fully informed and reassured before treatment.
Whether you have been referred following an abnormal cervical screening result, advised to undergo a LLETZ procedure after colposcopy, or would like a second opinion before making a decision, our specialists provide prompt access to consultant-led care and evidence-based treatment to help protect your long-term cervical health and give you complete confidence in your care.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is a LLETZ procedure performed under general anaesthetic?
A LLETZ procedure is usually performed under local anaesthetic during a colposcopy appointment, so a general anaesthetic is not normally required. The treatment is performed on an outpatient basis, allowing most women to return home shortly after the procedure.
How long will my appointment take?
Although the LLETZ procedure itself usually takes only a few minutes, your appointment will typically last longer to allow time for consultation, preparation, treatment, and aftercare advice. Your consultant will also answer any questions you may have before and after the procedure.
Will the tissue be tested?
Yes. The cervical tissue removed during the procedure is routinely sent to a specialist laboratory for detailed examination. This confirms the diagnosis, helps ensure the abnormal cells have been adequately treated where appropriate, and guides any follow-up that may be required.
When will I receive my results?
Your laboratory results are usually available within a few weeks. Once they have been received, your consultant will explain the findings clearly, discuss whether any further treatment or follow-up is required, and answer any questions you may have.
Are there any activities I should avoid after treatment?
Yes. While your cervix is healing, you will usually be advised to avoid sexual intercourse, tampon use, swimming, and strenuous exercise for a period recommended by your consultant. Following your aftercare instructions helps reduce the risk of bleeding and infection and supports normal healing.
Will I need follow-up after a LLETZ procedure?
Yes. Follow-up is an important part of your care. Depending on your individual circumstances and laboratory results, your consultant may recommend further cervical screening, HPV testing, or colposcopy to confirm that treatment has been successful and to monitor your long-term cervical health.
When can I return to work?
Many women feel well enough to return to work and their normal daily activities within one or two days, although this varies depending on the individual and the nature of their work. Your consultant will advise you on when it is appropriate to resume your usual activities.
Do I need a GP referral?
No. Many women choose to self-refer for private assessment and treatment. Referrals from GPs, cervical screening providers, and other healthcare professionals are also welcome.
Can I have a second opinion before deciding on treatment?
Yes. If you have been advised to undergo a LLETZ procedure and would like reassurance before proceeding, our experienced consultant gynaecologists can review your cervical screening results, colposcopy findings, biopsy results, and treatment recommendations before discussing the options available to you.
How quickly can I be seen?
We provide fast access to consultations, colposcopy, LLETZ procedures, and follow-up care, helping women receive prompt assessment, timely treatment, and expert support without unnecessary delays.
