Cosmetic Surgery Treatment Cost in India

India has become a high in-demand destination for plastic surgery with well-qualified surgeons trained from the USA and UK leading to developed infrastructure and availability of advanced facilities and equipment with a relatively low surgery cost increasing medical tourism from all over the world.

Plastic surgery is a process used for reconstructing and restoring the human body. Any alteration in the human body based on reframing via means of surgical procedure is termed as plastic surgery. Reconstructive surgery focuses on reworking on a portion to enhance its function whereas Cosmetic surgery in India is used for enhancement of aesthetical appearances of the human body. Both the surgeries in India are usually performed under general anesthesia and are mostly painless with a recovery time of a minimum of 3 weeks. Patients use these procedures to enhance their appearance generally or in case of any medical miss happening like birth defects or skin reparation to gain self-confidence and improve their quality of life. Defects like cleft lip, birthmarks, and haemangiomas, hypospadias, conditions from cancer, acute burns, etc. are cured with the help of plastic surgery.

Cost Comparison

Cosmetic surgery cost in India varies on the basis of different procedures yet being relatively lower than that in the USA. The average cost of Face, breast and other procedures in India vary between 1800USD to 3500USD in the USA in the best hospitals providing comfortable pre and post-surgery care to their patients. These costs are nominal and affordable as compared to other countries enhancing medical tourism in India giving them a clear window to upgrade their facilities more and more at reasonable costs ensuring specialist surgeons providing a hassle-free experience.
