BEFORE ANYTHING ELSE
If something goes wrong
What happens if something goes wrongMost clinic websites open with results. The question patients actually arrive with is different: who is in the room, and what is in place if the operation does not go to plan. These are the arrangements Banobagi states on every procedure page.One surgeon across all three stagesSurgery abroad breaks down at the handovers — a consultation with one person, an operation by another, and follow-up with nobody. Each stage below names who holds it.Online consultationYou can settle most of the plan before booking a flight — but not all of it, and it is worth being precise about which half is which.Revision surgeryA revision is not a repeat of the first operation. Scar tissue, missing support and a previous surgeon's plan all change what is possible.
