Cosmetic surgery abroad

This is what MSE rules say, pogofish:

• Medical advice

  This is a MoneySaving site. If you have a medical problem, please use NHS Direct or go to your doctor. This forum, and the Health, Beauty and Fashion board in particular, are not the place to discuss it.

  The Health board is for discussion of all issues surrounding health, diet, nutrition and how they relate to MoneySaving. Discussing medical insurance policies, cheaper ways to see consultants, cashback for alternative health treatments, how to get specific medication cheaper (legally) are all perfectly acceptable forms of discussion.

  It is very specifically and strictly not for the discussion of what to do in the event of certain medical problems. Please do not ask questions about this.

  Even though medically-qualified people sometimes visit these forums, we would ask them to refrain from answering specific medical questions. This leaves us open to somebody coming on, pretending to be a doctor when they're not, and giving advice.

The OP is not asking for advice on a specific medical problem imho.

She's asking for recommendations for people who have had surgery abroad, which may come under "cheaper ways to see consultants", do you think?

Different to 'I have a rash, what do you think it might be'? sort of question.

I think regular posters can spot a spam poster and get rid of it pretty quickly.

I reported several different posters yesterday, including one advertising fake currency.

The younger she is the more operations she is likely to need. If she is worried about cost she needs to know that she may need to pay for further operations. They don't normally come with a warranty.

And now she is aware of that fact as I've helpfully provided the link to the NHS.
