Aesthetic surgery in countries like Turkey, Mexico, Thailand, or Tunisia is often advertised as a luxury experience for a fraction of the price. Flashy websites, hotel packages, and influencer endorsements create the illusion of safety and comfort. But behind the glossy surface, these offers frequently mask real risks — risks that become painfully clear once the surgery is over and the patient is left to manage alone.
In these low-cost destinations, volume is the business model. Clinics often pack in surgeries back-to-back, with minimal time for proper medical consultation, planning, or recovery. Patients are sometimes accepted despite serious health risks — such as diabetes or high blood pressure — and subjected to aggressive combination procedures that carry heightened complication rates.
But what if something goes wrong? You’ll have to take care of corrections, treatment of complications, and recovery on your own — at your own expense and with all the stress. Even at home, if you’re far from the clinic where you had surgery, you may be left without legal protection and without access to proper medical care. Follow-up care is rarely included. Revisions, corrections, or treatment for complications? That becomes your burden — financially and emotionally.
Why Prague (and the Czech Republic) Makes Sense
Clinics are EU-regulated and held to strict medical standards. Surgeons are board-certified and emphasize individualized treatment planning over one-size-fits-all procedures. But most importantly, aftercare and recovery protocols are taken seriously. Patients remain under medical supervision for as long as needed — and crucially, support continues after surgery.
You’re not rushed out the door. You’re not left with a hotline number in another time zone. You’re cared for — personally, locally, and with full accountability. And should anything need a second look or minor correction, you are nearby, in your language, and with full responsibility.
Why Cutting Costs Can Cost You More
At ROYAL MEDICAL, we often receive equiries of patients who need to correct the consequences of unsuccessful surgeries performed in low cost countries outside the EU – only to return home with complications, infections, or botched results. Fixing these issues often requires additional surgery, higher costs, and longer recovery — not to mention the emotional toll.
Plastic surgery is not a holiday deal. It’s a medical intervention that requires skilled professionals, thorough planning, and reliable follow-up care.
