Cosmetic Surgery in India - the Advantages


While many people currently believe that they also have the right to an appearance that enhances their beauty or strength or confidence, the cost of cosmetic surgery in western countries is still beyond the financial means of many.  However, in India, cosmetic surgery can cost 50% to 90% lower, while the quality of the work is just as high.

Having those larger breasts, or liposuction, or tummy tuck, or nose job, or whatever surgery that will make chances for making life more successful and enjoyable is no longer out of reach.  Even sex reassignment surgery that changes men into women, or vice versa, is possible! All you need to do is plan a looks revamping medical value trip to India.

There is no sign that demand for cosmetic surgery in western countries is slowing down. As per statistics released by the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (ASAPS), during 2009-10, there was almost a 9% rise in the total number of cosmetic plastic surgeries with over 1.6 million surgical procedures. Since 1997, the total number of cosmetic procedures has almost doubled. Surgical procedures increased by more than 71%, and nonsurgical procedures more than doubled.

Benefits of Undergoing Cosmetic Surgery in India

India has a thriving medical tourism industry. Cities like Mumbai, Delhi, Chandigarh, and Chennai bustle with visitors from foreign countries who come for the low cost, high quality medical care.

The lower cost of living makes it possible for doctors and hospitals to charge much less and still provide high quality care.  Many of the doctors and physicians in India have been trained in the United States or United Kingdom. The clinics and hospitals are as highly equipped as in any other modern, western, industrialized country.  There are no wait times and surgery is scheduled for whenever the medical tourist requests it.

Patient care is state-of-the-art, with large hospital rooms often the size of hotel suites.  Medical staff is courteous, caring and fluent in English.  Aftercare is thorough and generous, often combining a vacation package that helps the patient recover much sooner, while basking on a warm Indian beach or resort.
The Role of Medical Tourism Agency in India

A good, well-established medical tourist agency can provide referrals to qualified doctors and accredited hospitals.  The agency can negotiate fees, work out a personal, individualized payment plan and provide all the arrangements for air travel, accommodation and a vacation as well.

Travel to India for cosmetic surgery is not only more cost effective, without sacrificing quality, but because it is also so far away, tourists may find it more discreet than having such work done at home.  It is certainly worth considering.
