For Combining An Exotic Holiday With Plastic Surgery, Costa Rica Is The Perfect Destination

By Jocelyn Davidson


Mankind's obsession with beauty and perfection is as old as the mountains. In all cultures, throughout the ages, both men and women have adorned themselves with colorful beads, feathers and traditional costumes to make an impression or to distinguish seniority in rank. A strong, good physique in men and beautiful features in women have always been the ideal.

Today, that age-old obsession with physical perfection and beauty is more prominent than ever due to the mass-media and advanced technology. Photo-shopped pictures of flawless celebrities became the norm and everybody aspires to look like their idols. Modern science made it easy and cosmetic surgery has become one of the most popular and profitable businesses of the century. People fly to their dream destinations and simultaneously undergo a transformation under the skilled hands of a cosmetic surgeon. For combining an exotic holiday with plastic surgery, Costa Rica is the perfect destination.

Why Costa Rica? For various reasons, Costa Rica has become one of the favorite destinations to go for minor or major changes to your appearance. Firstly, it is cheaper than in the USA and Europe. Secondly, it is away from your familiar neighborhood and any tug a pulls can thus be done in secrecy. Why tell the neighbor that you want to get rid of the lines around your eyes and mouth if you can return from a relaxing holiday looking youthful and radiant? Lastly, Costa Rica is a beautiful holiday destination and the perfect place for inner and outer revival!

One of the popular choices is the Plastic Surgery Center of Costa Rica. Located at the new Cima Hospital, it is one of the most modern and advanced cosmetic surgery centers in the country. Here one can have any procedure done - from extensive face and eyebrow lifts to tummy tucks, buttock implants, surgical peels and reconstructive surgery.

Unfortunately, there is also a serious downside to this popular beautification trend. Horror stories of people whose procedures went wrong and left them horribly scarred or even disfigured, are rife in the trade. It is thus imperative to make sure that one consults a highly qualified and board certified surgeon who has a good tracking record.

Cosmetic procedures often involve invasive surgery that have potential risks. Nobody wants to be left scarred and butchered in a foreign country after a cosmetic procedure went haywire. Therefore it is important to be informed and knowledgeable about all the pro's and cons and potential risks before chasing a dream of everlasting youth.

The advancements in the cosmetic trade do not only benefit those who want to improve their appearance, but have life-changing benefits for people who have been disfigured by accidents or illnesses like cancer. Reconstructive surgery, skin drafts and implants are part and parcel of the standard medical treatment for burn victims, cancer patients, etc. Since the latter do not fall under aesthetic or cosmetic procedures, most medical funds are obligated to pay for the procedures.

One tends to underestimate the psychological effect that facial or physical impairments have on some individuals. A birthmark, a mole or even a big nose or ears can cause severe stress and a low self-esteem if they were mocked about it since childhood. Responsible plastic surgery performed by a qualified, skilled surgeon can literally change people's lives - especially if they can have it in a tourist paradise like Costa Rica!
