Cosmetic Surgery Abroad, Where to Go to Save Money
Cosmetic surgery increasingly becoming more used to improve body appearance. Nowadays the costs of surgery are very low, it is possible to make a cheap facelift even at the cost of 3-4 thousand dollars.
We are talking about the "medical trip" or journeys to countries such as: North Africa (Tunisia, Morocco) , Central (Mexico) and South America (Brasil), Eastern Europe (Hungary, Slovakia, Serbia) or Asia (Thailand) that permit to make surgery operations with new facelift Procedures.
Why U.S. citizens decide to go overseas for cosmetic surgery when they have a better health system in their country? The answer is: for economic reasons. The U.S. health system is controlled by insurance companies that cover essential care, not those of cosmetic nature such as breast interventions, Facelifting, liposuction.
According to the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery in 2006 about 6.6 million of U.S. citizens have done cosmetic plastic surgery in their country. They also formed the largest portion of foreign clients for cosmetic surgery in Thailand, Malaysia, and South Africa. These three countries have hosted about 100 thousand U.S. citizens for plastic surgery.
The famous baby boomers, born between 1946 and 1964, are now older, they have also a great availability of money, for this reason they decide to do liposuction, facelift, botox injections, to improve the appearance of their face and body. But this is not the only reason why they do the famous "medical trips". The problem is the lack of insurance coverage. About 15.6% of U.S. citizens do not have health insurance and about 80% have an insurance that do not covers all events. For this reason that they decide to go abroad for medical treatment, for saving money. Thanks to the low cost airlines that offer special discount for ticket they can easily go to a foreign country. Together with the cosmetic surgery they can also make a holiday.
