If you’re having a facelift, a nose job or breast implants, going abroad means you can recover in privacy.  Costa Rica, Colombia and Brazil offer prices as much as 70% cheaper than in the U.S., according to the Medical Tourism Association.

The International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery has certified about 1,900 surgeons in 90 countries who meet its standards.
