A surgeon has issued a warning over the hidden dangers faced by Brits who fly abroad for cheap cosmetics operations.
Tens of thousands of UK residents flock to hotspots like Turkey and Poland to get cosmetic procedures at a fraction of the price it costs at home. But too many people make the mistake of failing to understand exactly what the process involves, and what can go wrong, Dr Ahmed Alsayed said.
Dr Alsayed, who is lead surgeon and medical director at plastic surgery specialists Signature Clinic, said: “Medical tourism is on the rise and thousands of Brits travel abroad each year to have procedures done for cut-price fees. However, many people fail to do their research and focus too much on money, rather than the quality or safety of the clinic.
