Richard Karoo, FRCS(Plast)

From the moment I met Dr Karoo I felt so at ease and all nerves passed. He was so lovely and friendly I knew I’d made the right decision by choosing him for my breast reduction. He came highly recommended and didn’t disappoint. I’m so pleased with my final results and the after care has been first class. It’s been life changing and I feel so much more confident and happy in myself. I’d highly recommend Dr Richard Karoo for cosmetic surgery.

Dr Karoo was so welcoming, I was extremely embarrassed about my grade 3 inverted nipples that I’d had since birth, I had been shamed and callously insulted by ex partners regarding this defect and it had been used as a way of demeaning me, this led to the feelings of embarrassment and shame. I just wanted to feel womanly when I was topless and not worry what anyone would say if they saw my breasts, this included mammograms, when wearing a bather, even spray tans, I was very uncomfortable in my own skin and hated summer and thin tops without a padded bra. Dr Karoo explained everything in depth, I was very relaxed about the surgery because he was so relaxed, and even during surgery I did not feel any form of embarrassment and due to the professional but friendly way Dr Karoo is with his patients I had complete faith and trust in his skills. Surgery was quick and painless, the only part that did hurt was the local anaesthetic going in, after that I felt no pain at all. Healing was quick and with very minimal bruising, and when I went back a week later I was overjoyed with the results. If you didn’t know I’d had surgery you’d never tell, there’s no scars and it looks perfectly normal, I wish I’d had them done in my 20’s instead of waiting until my 50’s, the price was really reasonable and I cannot believe I waited so long to do it. If this is something that you feel embarrassed about please have the procedure, it’s so quick and makes such a difference. And the confidence afterwards is worth everything.

i couldn’t recommend Mr Richard Karoo enough! he and his team are extremely professional, have fantastic communication and give excellent results. i will definitely be a returning client for any future procedures!

I been insecure about my nose for over 10 years, but from my very first consultation with Mr Karoo I instantly felt reassured. He was kind, honest, professional and genuinely understood how I felt, which gave me complete confidence that he was the right surgeon for me. He had a clear vision, understood exactly what I wanted, and took the time to meet with me again two weeks before the operation to answer any questions and discuss everything in detail. On the day of my surgery, I naturally felt a little anxious, but seeing him again immediately put me at ease. The whole experience was smooth and I felt well cared for throughout. Now, 6 weeks post-op, I am absolutely delighted with the results. My nose has healed beautifully and already looks fantastic. The care and support I’ve received from Mr Karoo and his team has truly been second to none. Thank you so much to Mr Karoo – I couldn’t be happier and it has changed my life in so many ways.

Such a great experience with Mr Karoo from the start to finish. I was made to feel very much at ease all the way through the process where I had a benign cyst removed from the back of my head which had been there for years. Mr Karoo and his team provide a service that is second to none and would highly recommend Cardiff Clinic to friends and family.

? I recently had a lower blepharoplasty with Mr. Richard Karoo and I couldn’t be happier with the results. He was professional, reassuring, and explained everything clearly. The recovery was smooth, and the outcome is fantastic—natural, refreshed, and exactly what I hoped for. I feel so much more confident now and would highly recommend him.

I recently had a rhinoplasty with Dr. Karoo and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From the very first consultation, he took the time to listen to my concerns, explain the process in detail, and set realistic expectations. The procedure itself went smoothly, and the recovery was much easier than I anticipated thanks to his clear instructions and attentive follow-up care. The outcome looks natural, fits my face perfectly, and has boosted my confidence tremendously. I highly recommend him to anyone considering rhinoplasty—you’ll be in excellent hands.

Life-Changing Experience – Highly Recommend I struggled to find support for my thick, unsightly scar until I found Mr. Karroo. The service was professional from start to finish. He made me feel comfortable, clearly explained my options and risks, and I felt genuinely cared for. The results exceeded my expectations—my mental health has improved massively. Truly the best decision I’ve made.

The whole journey from the initial appointment with Mr Karoo to end result has been a fulfilling experience. I wish to thank Mr Karoo for improving my mental and physical well-being. My procedure has been successful and I am thrilled with the result. Thank you so much.

Best experience. I was seen to as an urgent case as I became so ill after my breast implant had ruptured. My surgery was also booked in as urgent. Dr Karoo has a normal waiting time of 3 months so this was unbelievable. My after care was very good as my recovery took longer. Thank you Dr. Karoo . And I have to mention his team . So kind and polite.
