Rhinoplasty for less
Medical tourism in India has grown exponentially in the past few years and medical tourists are heading to Asiatic destinations like India for both surgical and elective procedures. The technological advancement of healthcare system in India and the expertise of healthcare professionals in India have made the country a significant player in the international medical tourism map.
The healthcare sector of India started gaining international importance since the developed world is realizing that they can avail quality healthcare in India at a fraction of the cost of treatment back home. Each year, a large percentage of medical tourists travelling to India seek elective procedures like Rhinoplasty in order to improve their appearance or to correct some defect in the nasal region.
Rhinoplasty, otherwise known as nose job is a surgical procedure used to sculpt the nose to improve its original shape and size. It is an elective surgery used to modify nasal tip, to reduce the dorsal hump, to narrow nostrils, to reduce the width of the nose and to make other such nasal corrections. However Rhinoplasty cannot reproduce the exact copy of the nose of someone famous. Each face has its own proportions, volumes, angles and outlines and Rhinoplasty can only tweak the features of one’s face to make one’s appearance better.
The history of Rhinoplasty in India dates back to 600 B.C, when an ancient Indian surgeon named Sushruta had performed surgeries on the nose in order to shape up injured or cut off noses with the help of skin reconstructions and surgeries. Rhinoplasty can thus be said to be having Indian origins.
Several technological advancements have given way to performing Rhinoplasty with ease. However, Rhinoplasty calls for the skill of the plastic surgeon. India has got both technology and skilled doctors who have successfully performed Rhinoplasty and other elective surgical procedures over the years.
The procedure is generally done on an outpatient basis and takes around two hours for the procedure to be completed. Since incisions are made inside the nose, only light scars are left after surgery which will fade in about two weeks time. The patient will not experience severe pain after surgery and even that will be compensated through medications.
While the procedure would cost $3000-5000 in the US, it costs less than half as much in India. The patient may be required to stay in India or about two weeks after surgery during which he/she can plan a trip in the beautiful country. You can enjoy rejuvenation options like spa therapies during your stay in India. When you opt for Rhinoplasty in India, you get best of both worlds. You can return home with a new look and rejuvenated spirit.
