Cosmetic tourism
Author: DJ05.10.2007
According to NBC News’s coverage of cosmetic surgery in Rio de Janeiro, Americans spend about 12 billion dollars a year on cosmetic surgeries. It’s no wonder cosmetic tourism is a big business for countries like Brazil, Argentina, South Africa, and even Thailand.
Cosmetic surgery is the next big thing to come packaged with tourism in India. India promises cosmetic-surgery tourism for anything from hair implants, scalp reductions, rhinoplasty (reshaping or re-contouring of the nose), face-lift, cosmetic eyelid surgery, brow lifts, and sub-metal lipectomy for double chin, chin and cheek. Largely cost-driven and banking on international goodwill of Indian medicos, the initiative is hoping to benefit both hospitality and healthcare industry and become a standard in cosmetic surgery such as the Maryland Cosmetic Surgery already has become.
