What's typically included in Medellín pricing: Surgeon's fee, anesthesia, facility fees, pre-op testing, compression garments, post-op appointments, and often recovery house accommodation for the first few nights.
Colombia has become a global leader in cosmetic surgery — and Medellín is at the center of it.
The WHO ranks Colombia's healthcare system #22 globally — ahead of the United States at #37. Medellín is home to internationally accredited hospitals and clinics meeting the highest standards.
Colombian plastic surgeons complete rigorous training — 5 years of medical school plus 4-5 years of surgical residency. Many train additionally in the US and Europe, holding international certifications.
Medellín pioneered the recovery house concept — dedicated facilities with 24/7 nursing care, prepared meals, lymphatic massage, and transportation. It's aftercare built into your trip.
Known as the "City of Eternal Spring," Medellín maintains year-round temperatures of 70-80°F. No extreme heat or cold — ideal conditions for comfortable healing.
We know you have concerns. Medellín's transformation over the past 30 years is one of the most remarkable urban turnarounds in history. The city's 2024 homicide rate of 11 per 100,000 is lower than Chicago, Houston, and most major American cities.
