When planning the cosmetic/plastic surgery, you will be interviewed to take your detailed medical history. Plastic surgery procedures will be decided with extreme prudence and care in order to detect and avoid those requiring heavy post operative follow up. Your medical questionnaire and photographs will be forwarded to the surgeon -Dr Rodrigo - in Budapest so that he can review your details and offer any explanations where necessary. Once the plastic/cosmetic surgery is determined and appropriate course of action set, we will let you know about the duration of your stay in Budapest and provide you with a final quote.
We will send you a quote based on the information provided. The quote might not be exactly the same price as the one in the price guide as every individual is different regarding the exact treatment to get the desired result. Once you have decided which cosmetic/plastic procedure you would like to have you let us know when you would like us to make arrangements with the clinic on your behalf. Book your flight and accommodation, fill in our booking form to confirm your surgery as well. In the case of major surgery (e.g. full facelift), approx. two weeks before your surgery get your medical tests done.
Once you arrive in Budapest you will be taken to your accommodation by taxi. You will have time to settle in and feel comfortable. Depending on the time of your arrival you will have an appointment at the clinic that day or the following day. You will go for a medical examination and a one to one consultation with your surgeon - Dr Rodrigo. (All the patients will have a consultation with - Dr Vincente Rodrigo - who is going to perform their surgery and he will be the one who will see them on their routine post surgery follow up.)
During the meeting of Dr Rodrigo you will have the opportunity to discuss your chosen procedure. There is no standard operation which applies to each patient. Your plastic surgery will be designed during this consultation specifically for you and all of the details regarding the procedure will be explained by Dr Rodrigo. The very same day or the next day is your surgery/treatment will be held. You will be required to stay in our Clinic 1-2 nights (depending on your procedure).
The minimum stay in Budapest after general procedures usually 2-5 nights. In case you wish to stay only for the minimum time in Budapest you must arrange supervision and aftercare back home.
After convalescence in the clinic, you will be escorted back to your accommodation. During the next few days, you will be required to return clinic for mandatory check-ups with your surgeon - Dr Rodrigo - with the help of your assistant.
Payment should be made after the consultation with the surgeon - Dr Rodrigo - prior to the admission to hospital for surgery.Payment can be made by Visa and Mastercard or cash in Euro/Sterling. Debit cards are not accepted. Before you go yo Budapest, cheek your credit card limit and make sure that you have enough money on your card.
Always remember it is your right to change your mind about your plastic surgery at any time and we will fully understand. There is no obligation to go ahead with plastic surgery unless you are happy to do so.
In the Clinic you will be asked to review and sign a Consent Form that precisely describes your required operation. The consent form is a legal document and your authorization allows the surgeon to perform the surgery. Do not go ahead with a procedure if you’re not fully comfortable or happy with what’s happening, or with the surgeon who is going to do the procedure. Remember that you are entitled to change your mind at any time, even five minutes before the operation.
Complete recovery depends on several factors, including the type of surgery, treated area and the
patient themselves. As we mentioned above convalescence may take place first within our clinic under complete professional care, then after in a hotel or accommodation of your choice. We will be in permanent contact with you for immediate assistance if needed. An orderly post operative check-up will be performed on the eve of your departure. Your surgeon - Dr Rodrigo will inform you on the necessary after care or precautions during the trip back home.
