FAQs

How much does plastic and cosmetic surgery cost? +

Visit our treatment pages for details of the cost of individual procedures.

You can spread the cost of your private plastic and cosmetic surgery. Take advantage of payment plans through our trusted partner, Chrysalis, and spread the cost of your treatment. Fit your repayments into your monthly budget rather than having to find the full cost at the time of your treatment.

How many cosmetic surgeries can I have at once? +

Certain cosmetic procedures pair well together like breast and abdominal surgery, arm and thigh lifts, or facial treatments such as facelifts, eyelid surgery, and chin liposuction.

Combining procedures can be more cost effective and efficient, with just one anaesthetic, hospital stay, and recovery period. However, safety is paramount and surgeons typically limit combinations to one or two additional procedures.

Why shouldn’t I have plastic and cosmetic surgery abroad? +

At Benenden Hospital, we advocate for safe, private surgery where patients can invest in their body, health and confidence. While surgery abroad may appear more affordable, it often comes with increased risks and less stringent regulations.

Upon returning to the UK, many surgeons may be unwilling to address non-urgent concerns related to procedures overseas and it may be more difficult to deal with post-operative complications. In the event of a life-threatening complication, seek immediate care at your nearest A&E department.
