Have you ever heard of the term "Medical tourism"? It has become a normal part of our time. People will make a holiday trip somewhere, and then at the same time take a cosmetic surgery abroad. The reason is simple - pricing in some countries are higher than some other. And for example, in Czech, the services of specialist from eastern Europe are cheaper and can be even more qualified than some of the clinics in western Europe. So if you can pay less for the medical service, while enjoy yourself in a touristic area and rest, it does sound like a great idea, right?

I saw quite some documentaries on such services being offered in European countries. It is sometimes not about price alone. People also will pick only trusted surgeons, so that they can reduce the risk of the side effects. I myself will not recommend plastic surgery, but i believe everyone has the freedom to decide and choose. Some do need it for health reason, so it is then ok to carry out such operation. I am only puzzled when i see some in the tv shows who look perfectly ok and nice, but they still want to go for more and more surgeries... it give me a feeling of addiction to surgery instead of a need due to health reason...

do you believe or support cosmetic surgery? will you allow yourself or someone you know to go for it? I know in some cases it is not the person himself/herself who wishes to have this, but it was a decision made to please the other person - the partner. I have no idea... do we actually love someone because of the look?

fruit for thoughts...
