Having a tummy tuck abroad: clinics people compare

People look overseas for abdominoplasty mainly on price, since a tummy tuck is rarely covered and the quoted figure abroad can be a fraction of the home cost, and sometimes to reach a specific surgeon who does a lot of body-contouring work. This page lists clinics readers ask about so you can compare them in one place. It endorses none of them and is not medical advice.

How to use this page

Before you book, confirm the clinic's accreditation is current rather than lapsed, and ask how many abdominoplasties the operating surgeon personally performs each year, not just the clinic total. Get in writing exactly what the quoted price covers: surgeon and anaesthetic fees, compression garments, nights in hospital, and any drain management. Since a tummy tuck leaves a long scar and can need revision, agree in advance how follow-up and any corrective surgery are handled once you are back home.
