Dr Paul is an internationally-respected, highly-talented UK plastic surgeon and a pioneer and thought leader within the aesthetics industry.

His attention to detail, passion and artistic eye coupled with a very friendly, kind, thoughtful and honest approach has been greatly applauded and his services are very much in demand. Paul’s greatest wish always is to see patients smile following their surgery and his professionalism and warmth  connects deeply with patients and puts them at ease.

His expertise is extensive but he now primarily focuses his time on minimal scar breast augmentation, mummy makeovers, labiaplasty, revisional breast surgery as well as the latest revolutionary Mia Femtech minimally invasive breast harmonisation technique under local anaesthetic.

He has a strong scientific background too and has published extensively including several medical books (one of which has been widely acclaimed and is published in 4 languages) and he is a Visiting Professor of Plastic Surgery to Harvard Medical School for his previous work in wound healing & scarring. He has been listed in the Times Magazine as one of the UK’s Top 100 Doctors and his work repeatedly recognised by Tatler Magazine.  

Dr Paul also specialises in skin cancer and has pioneered some of the latest concepts in skin health and is an expert in cosmeceuticals. He was the Founder and former Head of The Melanoma and Skin Cancer Unit (MASCU) in East Grinstead, one of the largest skin cancer units in the UK. Paul regularly writes for the trade journals, was on the Editorial Board for Aesthetic Medicine and has judged for all the National UK Cosmetic Medicine Awards & Professional Beauty Awards.
Paul is a full member of the British Association of Plastic and Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgeons (BAPRAS), the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (BAAPS) and the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS).  

As a modern-day Renaissance Man, Paul has varied outside interests as a passionate art collector, supporter of emerging artists and was also an accomplished high-level sportsman (cricket and martial arts). He has run the London marathon and enjoys skiing, surfing and cycling.

About the PANTHEONS Brand

A black and white photo of a letter p
The PANTHEONS brand is rooted in the philosophy of artistry, precision, and transformation. Inspired by the concept of a temple of beauty and rejuvenation, PANTHEONS is more than just an aesthetic clinic, it is a sanctuary where each patient is treated with reverence, like a masterpiece sculpted with meticulous care. 

Our logo embodies elegance, simplicity, and timelessness, drawing inspiration from the Golden Ratio (Fibonacci sequence), a mathematical principle that represents perfect beauty and harmony. 

This symbolism aligns seamlessly with Pantheons' mission to blend cutting-edge innovation with artistic excellence, ensuring transformative results that are both natural and life-enhancing. Our brand identity represents a commitment to patient-centric care, where each individual is treated as a unique work of art, undergoing a journey of renewal and self-discovery.

Questions? Want to know more?

How do I make an appointment?
Appointments at PANTHEONS Clinic are seamlessly managed through the Adoreal platform, ensuring a smooth and efficient booking experience. However, for any inquiries or assistance, you can also reach us via phone at 01342 330302 or by email at contact@pantheons.com. Please note most private hospitals may require a routine card swipe and forms to be filled in on your first visit – make sure you arrive at least 15 minutes prior to your allocated appointment time. This information is stored securely and is only used if there is a debt owed to the hospital and they have contacted you prior to use.
How much is a consultation?
Consultation Fees

Initial Consultation Fee
: Up to £250.00
Follow-up Consultation Fee: Up to £150.00

If you need to cancel your appointment with less than 72 hours’ notice, a cancellation fee of 100% of the appointment fee will apply (this may be waived in certain circumstances).

After your consultation, you may require additional tests such as blood work, X-rays, MRIs, or CT scans. These tests will be arranged through the relevant clinic or hospital, and their fees will be billed separately. We will inform you of any costs associated with recommended tests.

Your consultation process remains open for 6 months. If surgery is not scheduled within this timeframe, a new consultation will be required, and an additional fee of £250 will apply. If, after starting your consultation process, you choose not to proceed, please note that no refund will be issued.

Can I have my surgery at a different hospital to my appointment?
You can see Mr Banwell for consultation in any of his clinics and have your surgery at a different hospital. Surgery is usually performed in East Grinstead although we also have lists available in Tunbridge Wells, Haywards Heath and Harley Street. The first 2 follow up appointments after your surgery (week 1 with the nurses and week 2 with Mr Banwell) must be at the same hospital in which you have your procedure (dressing clinic appointments with the nurses are all covered as part of the package) otherwise you will be liable for individual hospital fees; all subsequent follow up appointments can be at a clinic of your choice (subject to availability).
How much will it cost?
Following your consultation our office can provide you with an estimate for your procedure at the hospital of your choice. The estimate will include the hospital fee, anaesthetist’s fee and surgeon’s fee. This also includes a dressing clinic follow-up after your procedure with the team of nurses and your follow-up appointment with your surgeon.

If your procedure requires post surgery garments the details will be provided to you to purchase at a discounted price.
What if I need to cancel?
Due to high demand for theatre space, please review the following cancellation and amendment rules:

Deposit: The £500 deposit is non-refundable unless you provide certification from a medical professional. In extenuating circumstances, a 50% refund may be issued.
