Cosmetic surgery and cosmetic/restorative dentistry is Costa Rica's hidden treasure, but not a well-kept secret now that 20/20 has broadcast their show on the subject.
In a 1991 survey it was found that 14.25% of all visitors to Costa Rica come to receive some sort of medical care - most often cosmetic surgery and dental work.
Yet many questions arise about safety and well- being. It is hard to believe that for about 1/3 of what you would pay in the USA you can receive the same quality of care. Actually, the quality of care in Costa Rica is really higher. Consider that patient satisfaction is twice what it is in the USA. The most likely reason for this is the warm, friendly nature of those who practice medicine in Costa Rica as well as the high standards of care. There are no HMO's, no quotas to fulfill, lower overhead costs and newer hospitals - all this in a country that in and of itself is beautiful.
The Recovery Retreats are places of luxury where every need is met. Chetica boasts cute individual cottages where those who are accompanied by friends can stay with the surgical patient in complete privacy. Tasty meals are served three times a day with plenty of snacks. Tours are arranged. There is virtually nothing to do except show up at the airport in San Jose, where clients are met by the Chetica staff - and then be waited on and pampered until they are ready to go home
