Medical Tourism to New York City is On the Rise, Says Dr. Andrew Jacono, Top Facial Plastic Surgeon

Medical Tourism Facelift – Medical Tourism Rhinoplasty – NYC

Global focus on American culture and emphasis on quality of care driving shift in trend

New York City Plastic SurgeryNew York, NY (November 14, 2013) – Medical tourism is nothing new, but the days of traveling the globe in search of cheaper cosmetic procedures are behind us, says Andrew Jacono, M.D., F.A.C.S., director of the New York Center for Facial Plastic and Laser Surgery. Instead, there’s been a recent upswing in patients from around the world traveling to New York City for cosmetic surgery, fueled by the global popularity and seemingly flawless features of our homegrown celebrities, as well as the superior quality of care.

“As other cultures are catching up to the U.S. in their acceptance of plastic surgery, there has been a dramatic increase in patients traveling from overseas for higher quality cosmetic procedures,” says Dr. Jacono. “In the past month alone, I’ve seen patients from Romania, Turkey, Singapore, France, Italy, and Russia in my practice.” Rhinoplasty, facelifts and eyelid lifts are among the most popular requests from this international crowd, with the overall trend leaning toward achieving a more youthful appearance while preserving natural ethnic characteristics.

While a recent study by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) discusses the trend of Americans traveling to developing nations for less costly procedures, Dr. Jacono warns of the medical and legal repercussions that may be associated with these surgeries performed on a budget. Instead, he advises those considering cosmetic surgery to focus on quality treatments that will guarantee safe outcomes.

“Unfortunately, revision plastic surgeries – making adjustments to poorly performed a rhinoplasty and other procedures – are very common in my practice. That’s why it’s so important to evaluate the surgeon based on the quality of care, level of experience, and proven results, rather than cost. ”

Even with the higher cost of cosmetic procedures here compared to nations such as Thailand, Singapore, Mexico, and India, all of which have experienced marked increases in medical tourism in recent years, the U.S. still remains a plastic surgery mecca for those who seek the highest quality results.  

Along with best-in-class treatment, luxury accommodations serve as another focal point in attracting cosmetic surgery tourists to the U.S., and to New York City in particular. With offices located on the Upper East Side in Manhattan and in Great Neck, Long Island, Dr. Jacono and his staff work to ensure that each visiting patient leaves not only with a new and improved look, but with memories of a one-of-a-kind New York experience. Vacation packages may include accommodations at top hotels, dining at world-renowned restaurants and limousine transportation, with additional local getaways and entertainment options.

Mission Statement

Doctor Jacono’s desire to become a facial plastic surgeon was solidified in grade school. There was a girl on his school bus route who was born with a cleft lip and palate deformity. Unfortunately, whenever she spoke, air and words escaped through her nose. Kids teased her and were cruel, and nobody would sit next to her on the bus, so he decided to sit with her. One day, the girl had plastic surgery and returned to school with her face repaired. Suddenly, classmates saw her face instead of her deformity and immediately treated her normally. It was at that moment that Doctor Jacono knew he wanted to fix people’s faces and change their lives. This is why he has gone on over twenty plastic surgery missions to poor countries around the world and provided free cleft lip and surgery for birth defects to over 500 children.

Because of this experience in his childhood, Doctor Jacono understands that one of our basic needs as human beings is to feel confident about our appearance. It’s is Doctor Jacono’s passion to help his patients achieve their facial aesthetic goals, creating natural appearing results to either enhance their beauty and proportion or rejuvenate their aging appearance. He is a world-renowned leader in the field of facial plastic surgery and only performs surgery on the face, not the body. He has innovated many facelift, eyelid lift, and rhinoplasty surgical techniques, publishing in leading peer reviewed literature and lecturing at plastic surgery conferences all over the world. He is committed to sharing what he has learned teaching surgeons from around the world.

His approach is to maintain your uniqueness and facial identity; it is still you just better. To do this he uses a customized, bespoke approach to each patient employing the most minimally invasive, innovative, and cutting-edge technology. Doctor Jacono has never performed the same procedure on any two of the thousands of patients he has treated. He is committed to providing his surgical expertise in a caring, supportive environment with a professional staff that has you as their focus and concern.
