Cosmetic surgery

Why people go: elective procedures with no insurance coverage, so the full cost is visible upfront.

Primary procedure. Revision work is priced differently everywhere.

Standard facelift. Combination procedures (eyes, neck) are priced separately.

Standard abdominoplasty. Combined procedures (liposuction, muscle repair) shift the range.

Hidden costs to watch for

The ranges above are for the procedure itself. Ask about these before you compare one quote against another.

Rarely included in a clinic's quoted price. Factor in your own travel, plus a companion's if you're bringing one.

Bloodwork, imaging, or a screening consultation before the clinic will confirm your quote — sometimes billed separately.

Some clinics quote the surgeon's fee alone. Ask what the headline number does and doesn't include before you compare it to another country.

Painkillers, antibiotics, or ongoing prescriptions post-procedure, which you may need to source once you're back home.

What happens if something needs a second look after you've left the country. Ask about this before you book, not after.

If you don't speak the local language, a professional interpreter for consultations and consent forms is worth budgeting for.
