Cosmetic Surgery In Britain – The Latest

The BBC reported last Thursday a new trend noticed in plastic surgery practices in Britain- a migration to foreign climes for surgery procedures.

The article went on to state that plastic surgery patients look towards Poland largely, for plastic surgery procedures that are offered at half-rate prices and are equivalent to British cosmetic surgery quality-wise.

If you remember, there were similar trends noticed in America as well where plastic surgery in Los Angeles was favored for cosmetic surgery procedures in South American locales like Brazil, Costa Rica and Argentina. While plastic surgery in foreign countries may be offered at a lower rate, it would be prudent to remember the level of professionalism offered in countries like the U.S. and the U.K. and then make a decision.

On the weight loss surgery front, the U.K. has also noticed a spurt in procedures like liposuction and abdominoplasty among British schoolchildren. Breast reduction procedures for taking care of gynecomastia are also another cosmetic surgery procedure that is enjoying popularity among these age groups.

News like this just goes to show the striking similarity found between cosmetic surgery practices in the U.S. and in the U.K.

Have you come across any other more likely comparisons between the U.S. and the U.K? Speak out to the Plastic Surgery Institute of California.
