Travelling for treatment adds practical and clinical considerations. Your assessment and consent should cover the procedure itself, anaesthesia, complications, recovery, travel, aftercare and what happens if you need help.
Questions to ask before booking
Is a remote consultation the final assessment?
No. Remote information can support triage and planning, but final suitability and the treatment plan require the appropriate clinical assessment.
Who decides whether treatment is suitable?
The responsible clinician. A sales or coordination conversation must not replace clinical judgment.
Are results guaranteed?
No treatment can promise identical growth or appearance for every patient. Individual outcomes vary. Any written guarantee is a qualified remedy commitment, not guaranteed efficacy.
What risks should be discussed?
Your clinician should explain risks relevant to you, which can include infection, bleeding, swelling, scarring, altered sensation, poor growth, unnatural appearance, donor-area problems and the possible need for further treatment.
What if I have a concern after returning home?
Use the concerns route in your discharge information. Urgent symptoms should follow the emergency thresholds and local emergency guidance given to you.
Should I buy travel insurance?
Check whether your policy covers planned treatment abroad, complications, extended stays and changes to return travel. Standard travel insurance may exclude these.
Can I send medical records through the website form?
No. Use the website form for an initial enquiry only. Sensitive health information and photographs should use the approved secure clinical route provided by the team.
Take written information away
Review the treatment plan, risks, alternatives, costs, responsibility split, aftercare and complaints route before committing. Ask for clarification if anything is unclear.
