Surgery on the Costa del Sol: a guide for residents

Why residents go home for surgery, and why they should not have to

Many expats fly back to the UK, Ireland or Scandinavia for surgery because they are unsure about language, standards or follow-up. That means a long flight days after an operation, which is exactly when you should not be flying, and aftercare thousands of kilometres from your surgeon.

What you get here

• A female plastic surgeon who sees you personally from first consultation to final review.
• Quirónsalud Málaga: private hospital with ICU, not a day clinic.
• Consultations in English, in person or by video call.
• A written quote after assessment. No surprises.
• Aftercare 30 minutes from home, not a flight away.

Most requested by residents

• Lipoedema surgery (WAL technique) — Dr. Yagües’ specialty
• Tummy tuck and rectus diastasis
• Breast surgery
• Labiaplasty, with complete discretion
• Eyelid surgery

Not sure yet? Start with a video consultation

A 50 € video consultation (100 € for lipoedema) lets you talk to the surgeon before travelling anywhere. The fee is deducted in full from your surgery if you go ahead.
