Bolivia is a great choice for medical travel. If you want to see the difference in terms of plastic surgery cost with the actual numbers here’s a quick comparison. In the United States, the cost of breast augmentation runs from $4,000 to $8,000 depending on the surgeon experience and the wait list the surgeon have from patients. Facelift can go from $6,000 to $8,000, the very in demand liposuction starts from $3,500. Nose job or Rhinoplasty can vary from $4,000 to $5,000 and yes every procedure can cost higher than this. Above all, these number doesn’t include other fees that are also very critical for the surgery itself like anesthesiologist fee, the implants fee (in the case of breast implants) and the medical facility fee. If you add them all up, plastic surgery cost in the United states is indeed very expensive.
Now let’s take a look at the prices offered by plastic surgery in Bolivia. The normal cost of breast augmentation in Bolivia is around $2000 depending in the exchange rate, and usually that includes the anesthesiologist fee, the implants and the medical facility fee. Just by looking at the inclusive fees, you can start imagining the savings you will get. Here’s the list of common affordable plastic surgery procedures that have high hits from u.S.and European patients.

Liposuction $3,000
Tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) $4,500
Rhinoplasty $2,200
Breast Reduction $3,500

Waiting times, surgical guarantee(health insurance) and high plastic surgery cost are three things that made American patients decide to opt for plastic surgery in Bolivia .Now you may think that the cost of medical procedure may seem to be too cheap and patients will likely be skeptical on what kind of healthcare these countries provide. The thing is, it is not that its cheaper somewhere else, your country is just way overpriced. The cost of living in Bolivia is always relatively cheap, with the current exchange rate you will surely save more if you decide to fly to Bolivia.
To guide patients coming from Europe or United States, health tourism agencies welcomes patients to their office to know more about medical tourism and its benefits. These agencies serve as the middleman on connecting patients and surgeons from the country they wish to go for medical care. Also, I advise patients to get proper orientation from their personal doctor and trusted physicians to know the risks and rewards of medical tourism.
