This has built the importance of <a href=\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/medical-tourism\/popular-medical-tourism-destinations-world\">medical tourism<\/a> for the country\u2019s economy.<\/p>\n<p>Most visits (48%) were for curative medicine, 34% visited for cosmetic surgery and 18% for wellness treatments. The most in demand treatments were traumatology, liposuction, cardiology, dentistry\/ophthalmology, cardiology, breast implants, weight management, abdominoplasty, medical checkups, and transplants.<\/p>\n<p>Foreign medical travelers choose Argentina as their preferred destination due to the lower cost of treatments as well as the prestige factor.

Both these attractions draw large crowds when compared to other parts of the country.

The Argentine Congress of International Medical Tourism met for the first time in Buenos Aires in 2015. The government and the <a href=\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/medical-tourism\/a-complete-guide-on-medical-tourism-facilitators-role-benefits-advantage-planning-and-services\">medical tourism providers<\/a> in Argentina including hospitals had announced a 5-year plan to increase the revenue to 500 million dollars annually.

The goal of positioning and growing Argentina as one of the major medical tourism destinations of the world has been achieved to a great extent over time. In 2015 the country ranked 5th in the top-five of the Latin American <a href=\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/medical-tourism\/guide-to-viable-medical-and-wellness-tourism-marketing-in-hard-times\">medical tourism<\/a> destinations. In 2017, it reached the 4th position, according to the medical tourism index, and is expected to go higher.<\/p>\n<p>Argentina is next only to Brazil and is expected to claim its market share of the 17.26 billion USD LATAM <a href=\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/medical-tourism\/how-big-is-the-global-medical-tourism-market\">medical tourism market<\/a> projected by 2026. The LATAM market is projected to grow at 18.9% from 2021 to 2026.<\/p>\n<p>Some steps such as the exemption of VAT for accommodation of medical tourists, revision of tax charges for export of medical services provided would attract more patients to Argentina and maybe even open more markets for Argentina.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"Top\"><strong>Top destinations for Argentina medical tourism<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-34796 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/medical-tourism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2011\/02\/Buenos-Aires.jpg\" alt=\"Buenos Aires\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/medical-tourism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2011\/02\/Buenos-Aires.jpg 800w, https:\/\/drprem.com\/medical-tourism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2011\/02\/Buenos-Aires-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/drprem.com\/medical-tourism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2011\/02\/Buenos-Aires-768x513.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Argentina has many medical tourism destinations, from the capital Buenos Aires to Mendoza.

But the rest 33% visit to avail of the cosmetic treatments and surgeries such as liposuction, cosmetic dentistry and weight loss programs. The patients are from countries such as the US, Canada and European countries where the cost of cosmetic procedures is beyondthe reach of most people. The waiting time is also a deterrent factor.<\/p>\n<p>Argentina has been focusing on improving the quality of services as well as the infrastructure of the clinics providing cosmetic treatments. The cosmetic surgery industry, therefore, has evolved as it has been providing the services since 2002.<\/p>\n<p>Plastic surgeons in Argentina are skilled with reason &#8211; the domestic demand is high for procedures such as <a href=\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/medical-tourism\/inexpensive-cosmetic-surgeries-boost-medical-tourism-industry\">breast implants<\/a>, tummy-tuck, laser surgery etc. It is estimated that 1 in 30 Argentinians have undergone some form of plastic surgery making the Argentinian population most operated on after Mexico and the US. This has made plastic surgeons in Argentina well-versed with the surgeries as well as new technologies and equipment.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, cosmetic surgery Argentina is most sought after, especially by North American and LATAM medical tourists.Now, it is one of the leading countries where people arrive to get their treatments done. Cosmetic surgery in Argentina is a major contributor to the country\u2019s GDP.<\/p>\n<p>However, there are many clinics which are not registered with the Argentine Ministry of Health, so medical travelers should check for this registration, when they search cosmetic surgery Argentina, before they book appointments. The hospitals have different complexity levels depending on infrastructure and facilities offered. Some have intensive care units, or coronary units or provide good comfort for the patient as well as attendant\/companion if there is a need for <a href=\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/globalhealthcare\/tips-receive-right-care-stay-hospital\">hospitalization<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, it is preferable that the surgeon should be a member of the International ASPS (American Society of Plastic Surgeons), which is the biggest specialty plastic surgery association worldwide. This would lead to successful cosmetic procedure outcomes.<\/p>\n<p>As huge currency devaluation in 2018 has largely driven down the cost of treatments. Patients can seek plastic surgery at prices which are 70% less than before, and at least 3 times less than European countries or the US. The devaluation has turned Argentina into most competitive country among its neighbors, in terms of both pricing and quality, as the services and working capital costs have plummeted.<\/p>\n<p>The trend is to enjoy the exotic beauty of the Argentinian landscape &#8211; stunning mountains covered with gorgeous snow, colossal waterfalls, shimmering lakes and striking prairies tempt visitors who want to holiday as well as get a facelift or dental surgery or plastic surgery done.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-34786 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/medical-tourism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2011\/02\/woman-opted-for-breast-augmentation.jpg\" alt=\"Laughing woman chooses breast implants from doctor\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/medical-tourism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2011\/02\/woman-opted-for-breast-augmentation.jpg 800w, https:\/\/drprem.com\/medical-tourism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2011\/02\/woman-opted-for-breast-augmentation-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/drprem.com\/medical-tourism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2011\/02\/woman-opted-for-breast-augmentation-768x513.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/globalhealthcare\/sunbath-holidaymakers-be-aware-of-skin-cancer-uk-doctors\">Holidaymakers<\/a> take out the time to watch the exciting dance shows and go for teeth whitening or breast augmentation.

Surgeons advise to stay out of the sun for two months at least after any invasive cosmetic surgery.

Those who want the benefit of these programs at a much lower cost visit Argentina. Similar clinics in Argentina offer customized treatments under care of doctors, <a href=\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/globalhealthcare\/following-post-operative-rehabilitation\">physical therapist,<\/a> nutritionist and psychologist.Affordable accommodation works as an added incentive to visit Argentina for treatment.<\/p>\n<p>Taking the example of Chile, UK and Canada where healthcare is public system, there can be waiting periods for upto two years. Patients who cannot wait for so long due any reason, are forced to leave the public system and opt for private care which is exorbitantly expensive. The best option therefore, is to travel for treatments and procedures, and due to its geographical proximity to North America, UK and Europe Argentina receives medical visitors all through the year.<\/p>\n<p>Argentina has also seen the influx of patients who do not have <a href=\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/medical-tourism\/medical-tourism-absence-health-insurance\">health insurance <\/a>in their own countries.
