3 deliverables in this treatment
- Fasting venous blood draw
- Laboratory analysis of Total, HDL, LDL, and Triglycerides
- Detailed lipid report with clinician consultation
The Cholesterol Profile measures Total, HDL, LDL and Triglycerides to give a snapshot of lipid health. Priced at £59, the fasting‑required test can help you see how your diet and lifestyle may be influencing cardiovascular risk.
About this treatment
This lipid panel evaluates four specific markers: Total Cholesterol, HDL Cholesterol, LDL Cholesterol, and Triglycerides. Because accurate triglyceride levels require fasting, the clinic advises a 9‑hour fast before the venous blood draw. The sample is processed in a certified laboratory, and the results are presented in a detailed report that explains each lipid value and its relevance to heart health. The £59 fee includes the fasting blood draw, laboratory analysis of all four markers, and a personalized clinician review to discuss any areas of concern and possible lifestyle adjustments.

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.
