Costa Rica is known as "the Beverly Hills of the South" because of its world-famous cosmetic surgeons.  You may combine your procedure with a relaxing vacation and site-seeing.  Costa Rica Unique Tours recommends only one, well-reknowned cosmetic surgeon.

Dr. Arnoldo Fournier M.D.
There was a time when only older people, those with birth defects, or accident injuries turned to plastic surgery. Today however, with the cost of plastic surgery within the reach of almost everyone, people of all ages consult plastic surgeons on matters of personal appearance, simply to feel better about themselves, by changing and enhancing the normal features they were born with. Plastic Surgery can stimulate significant changes in people's lives.
