Many Inverness patients travel abroad for breast surgery to access significant cost savings without compromising quality.

Getting to your clinic from Inverness
Inverness Airport (INV) connects to London in 1 hour 15 minutes, with onward international flights to Istanbul, Prague, Warsaw and Tbilisi typically taking 3 to 5 hours. Many Inverness patients book connecting flights through major UK hubs to reach surgical destinations within 12 to 18 hours total travel time. Return journeys follow the same route, with most patients cleared for air travel within 10 to 14 days post-surgery.
Inverness patients should arrange their medical tourism trip for 10 to 14 days total, allowing 2 to 3 days pre-surgery for consultations and final assessments, 1 to 2 days for the procedure and initial recovery, and 5 to 7 days in-country for wound care and drain removal.

Frequently asked questions
Can I get breast surgery on the NHS in Inverness?
Cosmetic breast augmentation is not funded by the NHS in Inverness. Breast reconstruction following mastectomy may qualify for NHS funding. Patients seeking cosmetic procedures must use private providers in the UK or consider medical tourism.
How long after breast surgery can I fly back to Inverness?
Most surgeons recommend waiting 10 to 14 days before flying from your surgical destination back to Inverness. Air pressure changes can affect healing, particularly with augmentation. Your surgeon will provide specific clearance based on your individual progress.
What happens if complications arise after I return to Inverness?
Reputable medical tourism providers in Istanbul, Prague and Warsaw maintain follow-up protocols with UK-based specialists. You should discuss aftercare arrangements before surgery and ensure you have emergency contact details. Most clinics offer remote consultations for minor concerns during your recovery at home in Inverness.
Are breast implants safe, and how long do they last?
Modern silicone and saline implants are safe when placed by qualified surgeons. Most implants last 10 to 20 years, though some last longer. Regular monitoring and mammography screening are recommended, and you should inform radiographers in Inverness of your implants.
What is the difference between breast augmentation and breast lift?
Breast augmentation uses implants to increase size and volume. Breast lift removes excess skin and repositions tissue to raise sagging breasts without necessarily increasing size. Many patients combine both procedures for comprehensive reshaping and fuller results.
