Poland?

I see lots of people going to Turkey. Obviously wherever you go you need to investigate the surgeon thoroughly, speak to patients if possible etc.
Is there anyway you could save for a bit longer until you can afford to have the procedure in the UK? Rhinoplasty can be quite invasive

This is madness. I would really caution against it. I've had 2 rhinoplasties & it can go wrong & the recovery can be awful.

What happens if things go wrong & you can't leave and travel home when planned? Will you find insurance to cover that? Unless you speak the local language you could find yourself feeling very isolated.

Imagine what else can go wrong... there was a guy being interviewed on the BBC a few months ago who was stuck in Ukraine after heading there for cheap dental treatment.

That’s why I’m looking for recommendations. From people who have actually been to a certain clinic and can recommend it to me . I don’t just want to pick a random one of the internet. Also I’ve had surgery on my nose before in the uk and they messed my nose up. This is to try and fix it ☹️

I can recommend somewhere in Portugal but I'm not sure how much of a discount you'd be looking at compared to the UK. The best one here is Dr. Edgardo Malheiro. I think he operates & does appointments in a big private hospital but I'm not whether he operates at his clinic too or only sees you.
(P.S. I'll tell you a name to avoid too: Dr. Ribeirinho Soares. Just avoid.)

I had an open rhinoplasty in Prague. But that was in 2018. I don't regret it, it was a fantastic experience. The surgery went well and the recovery was also quite fast. And from what I remember, the price I paid at the Forme clinic was about half the price I would have paid here in the UK. Anyway I'm planning another trip there next year for liposuction:-).

@Mum353
Thankyou . Can I ask what clinic it was do they have a website I could look at?

Really research good surgeons don't need to use excessive marketing. I've heard Forme is good as well.

It is called Forme clinic and is located in Prague. Their website is formeclinic.cz, it is in Czech, but you can change it to English. Yes, and Dr Vasek was my surgeon. I think he's still there. So you can have a look.
