OUR SERVICES
True beauty is an holistic approach - not
just about physical changes, but also having vitality, energy
and inner calmness. We have the support and service to assist
you throughout your holiday, which leads to an altogether
better outcome than you would ever get from a day surgery
at home.
The difference you will experience with
Gorgeous Getaways is our service. We take care of you during
your journey and beyond. We coordinate all your accommodation
requirements together with your service, surgery and non-surgical
treatments.
Your holiday tailored to your needs - you
pick the treatments and procedures you want, the level of
accommodation and the total time away, and then leave it
to us to organize everything. We make the recovery process
as painless as possible, and we are always there for help.
At each stage of your holiday we are easily
contactable through representatives on the ground, at the hotel and
hospital. Click on the links below to find out what we offer at each
stage of your holiday.

Pre-travel: Advice and Questions
After you have made your application with
us, using the application
form, the next step will be to get a detailed picture
of your current situation, and your goals for treatment.
The surgeon may have questions about your medical or physical
history, and you in turn can ask any questions you have
to the surgeon.
This information is normally undertaken simply
by email, but if you would prefer, you can speak to the surgeon by
telephone.
When you have made your booking, we send
you your itinerary as well as all the information that you
will need to start you on your way.
Once you arrive at your destination, you
will have a face-to-face consultation with the surgeon,
who will detail the whole procedure, and answer and questions
you have.
During your
holiday
Many
people travel a few days before their surgery to prepare
for their procedures, and relax and de-stress. You can begin
your other treatments (dentistry or optical) or pampering
(facials, massages, reflexology) as soon as you arrive,
which will give your immune system a boost to dramatically
improve the results of surgery and decrease recovery time.
Arrival
You will be met at the airport by our driver and driven
to your hotel and assisted with check-in. Soon after, you
will meet one of our local Gorgeous Getaways managers, who
will confirm with you all the details of your holiday, and
give you the local contact numbers for Gorgeous Getaways.
Consultation with the Surgeon
You will meet with your surgeon at a pre-arranged date and time. A
Gorgeous Getaways representative will accompany you to all
appointments and take you back to your hotel.
This is a final consultation before the
surgery to confirm all details, regarding your health and
the surgery. If required, final tests - blood test, blood
pressure and pulse - will confirm you are in good health
for the procedure. This is a comprehensive consultation,
which will detail the procedure's details and give you the
chance to ask any questions you may have.
Surgery day
Gorgeous Getaways will arrange everything for the
surgery day, so you don't have to worry about anything except
relaxing! We will drive you to the hospital, ensure you
are relaxed and comfortable in your room after surgery.
Usually you will pay direct to the hospital
before admitting. In some cases, you will be admitted to
the hospital the night before, if your surgery is early
the next morning. The surgeon will let you know your surgery
time and when you are to be admitted at your consultation.
You will be required to stay at the hospital
for a night. The surgeon will check on you the following
day and either discharge you or ask you to stay another
night for observation.
When the surgeon has discharged you, we
will take you back to your hotel and settle you into your
room. You will be given medications and a number that you
can call 24 hours. If you do have any abnormal pains, either
the surgeon will be called out to the hotel, or you will
be taken back to the hospital.
Post surgery care
You will have follow up appointments with the
surgeon after your procedure to ensure you are healing and
recovering well. This is a very important step to take in the
recovery process, which is often unavailable, or expensive, at home
clinics.
Your surgeon will advise you of what you can be
doing to improve recovery, and creams and medications will be prescribed when
necessary.
The first few days after surgery are the
most important to get adequate rest and recovery. As usual,
should you require anything, our Gorgeous Getaways representative
is just a phone call away.
Recovery
Depending on the type and extent of surgery
will depend on the recovery time. During this time it is
recommended that you simply relax in your room or go for
gentle walks.
When you feel better, you can start with other programs
- massage, pampering, or very gentle exercise.
Holiday
As you recover, you can enjoy more options - such as tours
and travel, or you may prefer just to relax longer and enjoy
the pampering and other many activities available at the
resort. There is always the fantastic shopping where you
can pick up great bargains!
Dental and Optical
Have a root canal treatment that you haven't had the time
or money to do at home? Want to ditch your glasses? Or do
you simply want to get your teeth whitened to complete the
effect? Take advantage of the great prices by getting further
dental and optical treatments. All these procedures are
at prices far below the cost at home, which makes it very
popular to have combined procedures.
Departure
and at home
The surgeon will determine your final consultation
- he may want to see you a few times to see how your recovery
is progressing.
At the completion of your holiday, our driver
will chauffeur you from your hotel to the airport.
Our
support and commitment doesn't finish at the airport. If
you have any questions or concerns, please do contact us.
We will refer any medical questions to the surgeon and get
feedback for you. Many procedures change and develop over
time, so you will not be able to see the final result for
6-9 months.
Quite often clients choose to return after
their great holiday, and we extend extra discounts and specials
ask a thank you.
