TrustMed Clinic : Budgeting for Your Body Surgery in Turkey
Why Budgeting Is Essential for Medical Travel
Turkey is a global leader in affordable plastic surgery, especially for body contouring procedures such as:
- Tummy tuck (abdominoplasty)
- Liposuction (standard, 360°, VASER)
- BBL (Brazilian Butt Lift)
- Arm, thigh, and body lifts
- Mommy makeover surgeries
Although procedures are significantly more cost-effective than in the US or UK, it’s important to create a realistic budget that includes all costs, not just the surgery itself.

5. How to Save on Body Surgery Without Risk
Choose an All-Inclusive Package
Avoid “basic” deals that exclude key services like hotel stay, transfers, or garments—these can quickly add up.
Book Early
Flight costs fluctuate. Booking 4–6 weeks in advance often saves €100–€300.
Travel Off-Season
Surgical clinics are less crowded and flights cheaper in:
- February–May
- September–November
Consider Combination Procedures
Combining tummy tuck + liposuction, or BBL + 360° lipo, is more cost-effective than staging them separately.
