Cut-price plastic surgery packages for Brits

Brits are lucky enough to have this new cut-price plastic surgery holiday vacation packages up for grabs. The special deals include boob jobs, tummy tucks, liposuction and facelifts. This offer is attuned to the growing number of Scots who now seek health treatment overseas at up to half the UK costs.

The cheap deals came in just weeks after a recent study revealed more than 50,000 Brits traveled abroad for treatment last year. Reports said that there was a 25 percent increase in the number of Brits who opt for plastic surgery abroad this year as compared with the figures in 2005.

The most popular cosmetic procedure requested by medical tourists is dental work followed by cosmetic surgery. Also, people aching to have hip or knee replacements, laser eye surgery and cataract removal are also getting the operations done abroad.

Barrhead Travel is the one who is promoting these new holiday packages to British clients. Its founder, Bill Munro, wants to launch new medical holidays this summer to countries such as Norway, France, Belgium, Germany, and Egypt.

He said: "Our deals will be between 30 and 50 per cent cheaper than the the price of treatments in the UK and that will include travel and hotel. People having cosmetic work will be able to fly and those having orthopaedic treatment will be able to use European rail services including the Channel Tunnel."

Munro also added that there is a great deal of demand out there for these services, adding that people are fed up of waiting lists and scared of the spread of MRSA, so going overseas is becoming more popular.
