Don't put off surgery anymore and book with Medical Departures to get the best prices online.

Some patients also opt for a breast lift at the same time if the problem cannot be solved by changing the implants alone.
Costa Rica is a tropical country located in Central America. As well as its beaches, rainforests and coffee, the country has gained in popularity and reliable for its medical facilities that deliver an attractive combination of quality and affordability. In fact, Costa Rica welcomes thousands of tourists and medical tourists every year, who enjoy both a vacation and cosmetic surgery at reasonable rates. Facilities here include specialist clinics as well as JCI-accredited hospitals.
The country is big enough to embrace all kinds of tourists including beach lovers, who can laze on the beaches, indulge in water sports like fishing, diving, swimming, snorkeling and more and see whales and dolphins. For the nature lover, Costa Rica offer the experiences of exotic wildlife and tropical flora and fauna, orchids, crocodiles, turtles, butterflies and exotic birds thanks to the natural rain forests throughout the country.
The country also has many volcanoes and parks and nature reserves. Among the places to visit are UNESCO World Heritage Sites like Cocos Island, Area de Conservación Guanacaste and La Amistad International Park.
You can choose to go to San Jose, the capital of the country, or one of the other places that are popular with medical tourists like Liberia, Guanacaste, Tibas, Escazu or Santa Ana. The country has two international airports, the Juan Santamaria International Airport and the Daniel Oduber Airport in Liberia, making connectivity and even internal travel much easier.
While you will discover a plethora of accommodation options at different price points, some patients even choose to rest and recuperate in a surgical recovery retreat and get taken care of in luxurious surroundings while waiting for clearance to go back home. You may have to wait for stitches to be removed or follow-up appointments at the medical facility.
If you want to ensure safety, the best prices and quality amenities, it's advisable to book with Medical Departures. We ensure safety because we carry out in-depth investigations into the qualifications and experience of the doctors and even their credentials, making sure that they are affiliated with a reputable international organization. We also check that the medical centers have quality amenities and customer service.
As breast revision may either involve simply changing your implants or other combined procedures, the time taken can vary from one to three hours. It may be performed under local or general anesthesia and depending on what your doctor says, you may want to leave after you have recovered if medically advised, or stay overnight in the hospital.
Regarding your recovery, do note that:
Breast revision surgery in the US costs, on average, $10,500 (CAD $13,700, UK £8,300, EURO €9,900, AUD $13,700, NZD $14,600). In Costa Rica, breast revisions cost an average of US $4,200 (CAD 5,500, UK £3,300, EURO €3,900, AUD $5,400, NZD $5,800).
[Please note: these prices are approximate estimates based on international data, calculated at the time of writing. You can check the clinics pages on our site to obtain the latest, most accurate pricing.]
