It is safe to get Plastic Surgery in Colombia?

Of course is safe to get a plastic surgery in other country, many people says that, in example, coming to colombia is a high security risk, but I think you should hear to lots of people who already come here, things are not as it may seem.

About the quality of plastic surgery in Colombia (I talk about Colombia because is the country I live :) ) we have LOTS of high quality surgeons with many years of experience and who have degrees on great universities in the USA, Brazil, Europe, etc. and also we have excellent medical centers with the latest in technology.

Also think that the prices in Colombia are significantly lower and many people think that if prices are lower is because the quality is lower, absolutely NOT, prices are lower because supplies are cheaper due to money exchange, economical aperture and many other factors that let the prices keep low comparing to the USA or other countries.

Cosmetic surgery a boom in Cali, Colombia

An intense tanned in the skin is normal when returns from vacations, but how to return with largest breasts, a correction in the nose or with less weight and without wrinkles?.

It sounds rarely, but the trips that include that type of transformations are promoted for travel agents and plastic surgeons of Cali Colombia that try to attract a growing demand of tourists in search of changes to their aspect.

Savings in price and the good reputation of hospitas and medical services in Cali, Colombia are some of the advantages that the travel agents and the surgeons try to promote abroad.

They seek to take advantage of the tourist boom that this South American nation have since 2005 when, for the first time in more than two decades, attracted a million tourists, according to the Institute of Commerce and Tourism.

Not official statistics on the number of tourists exist that arrive to country to change its image, but they say that in cities as Cali "the volume is gigantic".

The president of the Colombian Association of Plastic Surgery, Alejandro Jaime, declared that "in the two last years has come in increase the quantity of patients come from other parts... because they have know-how that our plastic surgery and esthetics are very well positioned on a worldwide basis".

There are patients that come from nearby countries as Ecuador, Panama, the Antilles, but especially of "United States and Spain have been important markets that are beginning to come to see the kindnesses of the Colombian medicine".
