The LIPP Lipid Profile is a simple blood test that measures the four key fats in your bloodstream – Total Cholesterol, LDL Cholesterol, HDL Cholesterol, and Triglycerides. By quantifying these markers, the test helps you understand how your lipid levels may be linked to heart health and cardiovascular risk. It’s designed for adults who want a clear picture of their cholesterol and triglyceride status, and it uses a single venous blood draw with results typically returned within a few days. The panel includes exactly four biomarkers, and a £20 specimen collection fee is added to the base price of £58.
About this treatment
The LIPP Lipid Profile provides a focused look at the four most common lipids that clinicians use to assess cardiovascular health. The test measures Total Cholesterol, LDL (often called "bad" cholesterol), HDL (the "good" cholesterol), and Triglycerides, each of which can give insight into how your body processes fats and may be associated with heart disease risk. A single venous blood sample is collected – no fasting is required unless your provider…

Panel categories
Biomarkers tested
4Often called 'good' cholesterol, HDL carries cholesterol away from arteries back to the liver for removal. Higher HDL levels are protective against heart disease. Exercise, healthy fats, and moderate alcohol intake can raise HDL.
Often called 'bad' cholesterol, LDL deposits cholesterol in artery walls, contributing to plaque buildup and atherosclerosis. LDL is the primary target for cardiovascular risk reduction through diet, exercise, and medication.
The combined measure of all cholesterol in your blood, including HDL, LDL, and VLDL. While useful as an overview, the breakdown between HDL and LDL is more clinically meaningful for assessing cardiovascular risk.
The most common type of fat in the body, stored for energy. Elevated triglycerides — often from excess sugar, alcohol, or calories — increase cardiovascular risk and can cause pancreatitis at very high levels.
