Is it safe to have plastic surgery overseas?

    Dr response:  I certainly would not recommend another country based upon safety concerns.  On a purely economic level, consider the costs associated with treating problems upon return to the US.  I think that most people would do better with trying to find a financing option that works for them.  Find a plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who performs hundreds of Brazilian buttlifts each year.  Then look at the plastic surgeon’s website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can deliver the results.
