There are dozens of countries around the world that have benefited from medical tourism but few fared better than Thailand. Cosmetic surgery in Thailand has brought the country from the brink of financial ruin into an era where medical facilities are at their best ever. More than 1.6 million people travel from overseas to get medical treatment in Thailand; much of this is of the cosmetic variety.
There is no denying the financial benefits: Experts believe that medical tourism will be worth a whopping $3.3 billion a year by 2015. But the effects are far beyond just putting more cash into the economy. The rise of cosmetic surgery in Thailand will ensure an even greater level of expertise among the existing surgeons and those coming through the ranks. Not only that, Thai surgeons will continue to get easy access to some of the best medical equipment in the world.
