Why should we travel to another country for plastic surgery or any other treatment?

Secondly, there may be some laws in the country of origin that will not permit the performance of certain plastic surgeries, or the insurance will not cover the procedure, and as a result, the cost of cosmetic surgery would be much high.
Thirdly, the accessibility of professional specialists, advanced facilities, and the low cost of plastic surgery in other countries.
