Why travel to Costa Rica for plastic surgery?
Costa Rica is a leader in the provision of health care, and has become a favored destination for medical services.
You will be interested to learn that Costa Rica not only offers world-class medical care, but offers it at a fraction of the cost of the same procedures in the United States. For example, a face-lift, which can cost $12,000 in the United States, costs $3,000 in Costa Rica.
This is perhaps one of the best kept secrets among those seeking plastic surgery is the enormous savings they enjoy while "vacationing" in Costa Rica. Not only are procedures such as liposuction, face lifts, breast surgeries and eyelid surgery less expensive, but those who know, get to be pampered and waited on at a luxurious recovery retreat.
The recovery retreat is a beautiful Villa where patients can privately recover from their surgery. Nurses are in attendance and your doctor and the 3 major hospitals are nearby. You will be driven to your surgery and post-op appointments for free. The Villa provides the ultimate environment in which to recover from plastic surgery. Unlike typical hotels, the bilingual staff at the Villa has been specifically trained to meet the special needs of surgical patients and gives special attention to your comfort and well-being.
Patients can dine with other surgical patients or choose to have their meals in their own suites. Rates are low and include all meals and transportation to and from your doctor's apointments. Not only will the staff at the Villa provide the specific medical aftercare prescribed by your surgeon, they will also pick up your prescriptions and prepare fresh daily meals that meet your specific dietary needs.
All of the surgeons and anesthesiologists are board certified in their own specialty and they and the entire staff are bilingual. Perhaps that is why 80% of their patients come from the USA.
Airfares form the USA run around $250 - $450 R/T. Direct flights to San Jose, Costa Rica, where the four major plastic surgeons work, are available daily. Consults are free and are done initially online using your information and photos if necessary. A pre-op surgical consult is done after you arrive in Costa Rica where you will be met at the airport by one of the staff from the Villa.
Costa Rica is rapidly becoming a favorite place for tourism. It boasts lush rain forests, amazing mountains and coffee plantations, some of the best beaches in the world and Tabacon, a beautiful resort at the base of an active volcano where you can bath away your stress in pools heated by lava flows from Arenal.
