Choosing Colombia

Why patients choose
Colombia.

Internationally known plastic surgeons, strong hospitals — and public registries that make checking easy.

01

Renowned plastic surgery

Colombia is one of the best-known destinations in the Americas for plastic surgery, with experienced specialists in Cali, Medellín and Bogotá.

02

Hospitals close by

In Cali, surgery can be planned near high-complexity hospitals such as Fundación Valle del Lili and Clínica Imbanaco. See hospitals →

03

Registries you can check

Every licensed health professional is in ReTHUS, the Ministry of Health’s public registry, and clinics must be authorized (habilitadas).

04

About 3–4 hours away

Nonstop flights from Miami to Cali, Medellín and Bogotá. Colombia keeps Eastern Standard Time all year.

Safety first

Check your surgeon
in Colombia.

Illegal clinics still operate — one in Bogotá was found in 2026 after more than 200 surgeries by people posing as doctors. These checks protect you. We do them with you.

01

ReTHUS registry

Search the surgeon’s ID in ReTHUS, the Ministry of Health’s public register of health professionals, and confirm plastic surgery training. If they are not listed, do not proceed.

02

Specialty society

Ask whether the surgeon is a member of the Sociedad Colombiana de Cirugía Plástica Estética y Reconstructiva (SCCP).

03

Authorized clinic & anesthesia

Confirm the clinic is habilitada (authorized) with the city’s Secretaría de Salud, who provides anesthesia and where you would be transferred in an emergency. Never in homes or improvised offices.

04

Everything in writing

Surgeon, facility, anesthesia, garments, medicines, follow-up and recovery stay — on one written quote before you book.

Where surgery happens.

Procedures are planned in authorized clinics and hospitals in Cali, Medellín or Bogotá. Patients with medical conditions are usually planned in Cali, near Fundación Valle del Lili and Clínica Imbanaco. See high-complexity hospitals in Colombia.

Questions

Good questions
deserve straight answers.

Still wondering? Call 1-866-497-7163 or ask in your consultation request.

How does a virtual cosmetic surgery consultation work?+

You share your goals, history and optional photos. A qualified surgeon reviews them and discusses candidacy, options, risks and realistic expectations by video. You then receive a written plan and quote before deciding to travel.

How do I check a plastic surgeon in Colombia?+

Search the surgeon in ReTHUS, the Ministry of Health’s public registry of health professionals, and confirm plastic-surgery training; ask about membership in the Sociedad Colombiana de Cirugía Plástica (SCCP); and confirm the clinic is authorized (habilitada) with the city’s Secretaría de Salud. We do these checks with you.

Which city in Colombia is best for plastic surgery?+

It depends on the surgeon, your health and your flights. Cali, Medellín and Bogotá all have experienced plastic surgeons; patients with medical conditions are usually planned in Cali, near high-complexity hospitals.

Is plastic surgery in Colombia safe?+

It can be, with a registered plastic surgeon, an authorized clinic, a qualified anesthesiologist and a realistic recovery plan. Avoid offers in homes, apartments or improvised offices, and review the U.S. State Department advisory for the city you will visit.

Can photos confirm that I’m a candidate?+

No. Photos help start the discussion, but medical history, an in-person examination, testing and the surgeon’s judgment are needed before candidacy is confirmed.

How much does cosmetic surgery cost in Colombia?+

Costs depend on the procedure, technique, surgeon, facility, anesthesia, implants, garments, tests and length of stay. You receive an itemized written quote after your consultation, showing what’s included and what could change.

Can several procedures be combined?+

Sometimes. Only the surgeon and clinical team can decide whether a combination is appropriate or whether staged care is safer. Longer procedures need careful individual assessment.

How long should I stay in Colombia after surgery?+

Common planning ranges are about 5–7 days for eyelids or breast augmentation, 7–10 days for rhinoplasty or liposuction, and 10–14 days for a tummy tuck, facelift or combined plan. Your surgeon sets the real number; leave room to extend.

Is it safe to have plastic surgery abroad?+

Safety depends on the surgeon, the facility, anesthesia, your health and your recovery plan. We help you review credentials, the care setting and the complication plan before you commit.

What if I have a concern after I return home?+

Before surgery you receive written contact instructions, warning signs, follow-up timing and copies of your records, plus a plan for coordinating with a clinician near home.

Do your coordinators speak English?+

Yes — our team supports patients in English and Spanish before, during and after care.
