Procedures and Valuation in Buenos Aires

Why Have Surgery in Buenos Aires?

Buenos Aires is a genuine medical reference destination. Argentina has one of the highest densities of board-certified plastic surgeons in Latin America, a rigorous surgical tradition, and hospital technology equivalent to European reference centres.

The Process for International Patients

Having surgery in Buenos Aires from abroad is more straightforward than it sounds. Thousands of patients from the Americas, Europe and beyond do it every year. The process has six clear steps:

1. 1
   Online consultation (WhatsApp or video call) Send photos and describe your goals. Dr. Jenny evaluates your case, answers questions and provides an indicative quote, with no commitment.
2. 2
   Pre-operative tests in your home country Once the surgery date is confirmed, you receive the pre-op test checklist (blood work, ECG, medical clearance). These can be done locally and sent to us by email, reducing your time in Buenos Aires.
3. 3
   Arrive in Buenos Aires (2–3 days before surgery) We recommend arriving 2–3 days early to acclimatise, complete the final in-person consultation and finalise pre-operative arrangements. Buenos Aires international airport is Ezeiza (EZE).
4. 4
   Surgery day Surgery takes place in a licensed private operating room. Duration ranges from 1–5 hours depending on the procedure. Depending on what you're having done, you return to your hotel the same day or within 24–48 hours.
5. 5
   Recovery in Buenos Aires (1–2 weeks) During the initial recovery you have check-up appointments every 1–3 days. Duration depends on the procedure: blepharoplasty 10–12 days, facelift 14–18 days. The Palermo and Recoleta neighbourhoods are ideal — safe, comfortable and close to the clinic.
6. 6
   Post-operative follow-up from home Once back home, follow-up continues by video call or WhatsApp. Dr. Jenny remains available for any questions throughout the full recovery period — typically 4–12 weeks depending on the procedure.
