    I highly do NOT recommend going outside of the USA or Canada. I cannot stress it enough to you not to have any of those surgeries outside of North America.

    i dont think it is a good idea. the standard of health and clenliness over there would not be the same.

    also, you really have to consider that even though it is cheaper to get the surgery done, if something goes wrong the cost of staying over there and getting it fixed up will be as expensive as if you just got it done by someone close to home but without the pain and trauma of the stuff up.

    also, if you get it done in a foreign country you will not have your friends and family around to look after you after surgery.

    you also should consider that you do need to go back and get some surgery checked up and instead of just going down to the doctor you would have to save up and get another ticket to the country you got it in.

    so yeah. if i where you i would just save up the extra couple of thousand dollars and get it done near home cause it will be less risky and easier to deal with incase something goes wrong cause if something happens it could turn out to be way more expensive because of the fact that you cut costs and got it done in another country.

    all the best

    Just go to India, they are very good at it. So many Brtish people are sick and tired of waiting to be treated in the UK so they just go to India and get it done on the cheap and its safe.
    Other option is Thailand.

    Why do people think only usa and canada have the best ??

  • azadeh:

    I agree with tixy,but if you really want to have it in another country I advise you iran or india.
    these 2 con have good and low cost services,with professional Docs.
    by the way you can enjoy your time visiting their historical places.

    It is good that you are thinking about the best options for your surgery, everywhere in the world you can find good and bad surgeons, so don’t close your eyes thinking that only in USA or Canada you may find good surgeons.

    To take in mind in USA or abroad: It is not only that the plastic surgeon (be sure that is a plastic surgeon and not someone just saying that he or she is) is certified, the facilities and other health professionals (nurses, anesthesiologist) working with you should also be certified.

    In this site you can find more information about having plastic surgery in another country and the procedures in general:

    Take in mind and ask your surgeon what will happen in case of any complication (it can happen even in the best hands) and for how long you will stay in the other country.

    I wish you the best luck, and don’t go for it until you are completely sure about what you are doing.

    Liposuction surgery is very safe nowadays. My cousin got her breast reduction, tummy tuck and facelift surgery in India by the company called Tour2india4health Consultants .The Price for the surgery she paid in India was very less. She paid 30% of the cost she was quoted in America.

    Tour2india4health Consultants is very famous in India. They arrange cosmetic and plastic surgery for foreigners in India. I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and about their patient stories. They arrange financing for USA, Canadian, UK and other international patients who plan to have surgery abroad for low price, as the breast reduction, tummy tuck, facelift and other cosmetic surgery is not covered by insurance. They also have photos pasted of their International patients. You can checkout their website. There are huge cost savings. As a doctor I personally believe that surgery can be easily handled in India, as the quality of healthcare available In India is simply best in the world. The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.

    Hope this helps.

    I had LASIK done in Bucaramanga, Colombia. It was a wonderful experience. The doctors and staff were professional and my eyesight was perfect afterwards.
