Medical Port – Plastic surgery is increasingly popular all over the world, and Portugal is no exception. Highly skilled and trained doctors perform all kinds of plastic surgeries in the top private hospitals in the country to both Portuguese and foreign patients. Some of the most requested surgeries are breast augmentation, liposuction and rhinoplasty. These surgeries, especially breast implants, are a big decision in someone’s life that shouldn’t be taken lightly. A lot of people don’t do proper research into these types of surgeries and when they start suffering from breast implant illness symptoms, they have no idea what to do about it. Don’t be like that type of person and be sure to educate yourself on the risks of the surgeries. If you have been through similar procedures or any form of surgery, you’ll know that recovery is a big part of the process. Recovering at home is very important. One thing you may not have considered is switching your old mattress to a brand new one. If you are not sure on where to start, you could do some research into something like a leesa mattress, to find the best product on the market to meet your needs. Being able to recover easily is yours and the surgeon’s top priority.

Portuguese plastic surgeons are among the best trained in Europe, because their medical training lasts 12 years – six years of medical school and six years plastic surgery training. After that period, they become specialists in Plastic Surgery by the Portuguese Medical Board, a requisite to be a practitioner in Portugal. Medical school in Portugal is very demanding and only top students are allowed to attend. Language isn’t likely to be a barrier, since 30 percent of the Portuguese population is fluent in English and 20 percent in French. This average is especially high in the health sector where most of the essential biography is in English and French. Medical Port has teamed up with the best private hospitals and plastic surgeons to offer a wide range of procedures that will be performed at Joint Commission International-accredited facilities, with state-of-the-art technology equipment and spotless facilities.

One of the advantages of having plastic surgery in Portugal is the confidentiality and the guarantee of a total secrecy between patient and doctor. A surgery involving physical changes in most of the cases is a delicate procedure, and patients don’t want to disclose they did it. Knowing the surgery and the recovery will be away from home allows the patient to face the surgery with time, comfort and dedication. Also the recovery will be boosted by the stress-free environment of being abroad, without worries or the normal disturbance of the daily routine at home. When leaving the hospital, clients can recover in a 4- or 5-star hotel with all the amenities they wish for. When it comes to costs, a plastic surgery in Portugal can cost up to two times less than in the U.S. But you can also find creditable plastic surgery establishments like this Denver Plastic Surgery who offer competitive prices. Considering going abroad for a medical procedure entails a lot of thought and consideration about all the aspects related to the surgery (before and after), the hospital, the physician and the country itself.

Trust and transparency are important factors for clients as soon as they start their decision process.
