Book a ConsultationWhen considering plastic surgery abroad, there are several factors to consider. Procedures can be more affordable in certain countries as there are lower costs associated with insurance and quality maintenance, as often other countries are less well regulated.
However, there are also potential drawbacks to undergoing plastic surgery abroad. These include language barriers, differences in medical standards and regulations, limited follow-up care, and potential complications related to travel and recovery in an unfamiliar environment. Having plastic surgery in the UK may offer the reassurance of standardised medical practices, easier access to follow-up care, and the ability to communicate effectively with healthcare providers. This is especially important directly after surgery where face to face follow up is important.

It is important to thoroughly research and consult with a qualified healthcare professionals before making a decision.
