safety and credibility |
I was advised not to have my intervention abroad to avoid possible high risks caused by bad surgery and complications that may take place. I heard that in certain cases surgeons do not keep in touch with patients to help them once they are back home. How does Estetika Tour insure quality?
Estetika Tour made agreements
with some of the best Tunisian plastic surgeons. As you will find
out they were all certified by French and American universities
and are all formally recognized by the Tunisian doctors' board.
All the high technology equipment used is imported from Europe or
the United States. Please refer to the Clinic of la Marsa page for further information
Estetika Tour offer a guarantee in the unlikely event of non success: the new intervention is free of charge.

What do you mean by corrective surgery, and why would I need it after my surgery?
Complications may occur, as once you are back home and
your body can possibly react to the treatments you had. Typically
a complication is not automatically due to surgery quality but can
of course be the direct result of your post surgery body reaction.
In this case it is possible that a corrective surgery is needed
to rectify the complication. When a complication erupts you should
contact ESTETIKA tour immediately to seek advice. When the problem
can not be explained by phone to the surgeon, we will direct you
to a local surgeon or you may consult with your personal or family
physician.
After this consultation you can be brought to undergo a corrective
surgery at Estetika Tour expenses (the flight expenses remain your
responsibility). You will benefit from the same hotel facilities
and services than during your initial stay. This is our long run
guarantee

| Overnight’s
stay in clinic |
Why do you recommend a one or two overnights’ clinic stay?
The very simple reason, for which we recommend you to
stay one or two nights in the private clinic, is that we can offer
you this facility as the best place to recover. A professional medical
team as well services you may need will be constantly available.
In addition, a surgery (no matter what type it is) can be emotionally
exhausting for any patient. We are conscious that being surrounded
by a team who can answer all questions during the recovery period
is usually appreciated by the patients and more comfortable for
them.
Exorbitant prices are the main reason behind patients preferring
not to spend overnights In Europe or the United States. In our partner
clinic you can stay as long as you wish.
…… Any how we want to make sure that the surgeon is
satisfied with your post surgery body reactions before leaving the
clinic.
