Breast Surgery is among the treatments UK patients most often travel abroad to access at a lower cost. Istanbul is the heart of Turkey's medical tourism industry and the busiest city in the world for hair transplants and dental work. The city holds a dense cluster of JCI accredited hospitals and specialist clinics, with surgeons who often treat more international patients in a month than a UK clinic sees in a year.
Privately in the UK, breast surgery costs around £7,000 and is rarely available on the NHS. At an accredited clinic in Istanbul, the same treatment typically costs about £2,800 all inclusive, a saving of roughly 60%. Prices usually cover consultation, implants or fat transfer, surgery, hospital stay, surgical bra, hotel and transfers.

| Where | Typical cost | Saving |
