Health / Different Types Of Dental Crowns by IndiCure: 9:58am On Feb 08, 2021
Dental crowns are an amazing solution for people who deal with cracked or chipped teeth. Crowns provide a long-lasting solution since they prevent bacteria from entering the cavity in the tooth and allows the person to enjoy their meals normally. Dental crowns are the best alternative for both aesthetic and functional purposes.

What is a Dental Crown?

A dental crown is a tooth-shaped cap that helps cover and protect any broken tooth. It can come in many sizes and shapes. They are specially designed to mimic the natural appearance of your tooth and hence there are a variety of options to suit your functional and aesthetic needs. Dental crowns can anywhere up to 20 years if they are well looked after.

Patients can choose the type of crown they require, options may include:

- Porcelain: Porcelain crowns are by far the most popularly used. They are considered to be the best material for mimicking the natural appearance of your teeth, especially if the damaged tooth lies forward in the mouth.
- Stainless steel: These are typically used as an alternative till the permanent crown is being designed. They are ideal for alleviating the risk of bacteria or decay from entering the treatment site until you wait for the permanent crown. Once the permanent crown is ready for placement, the stainless steel crown is removed.
- Metal (titanium) crowns: Titanium crowns are known for their resistance and durability to decay. They are long-lasting, incredibly strong, and withstand biting and chewing. But these are the most expensive options.
- Porcelain and metal hybrids: This type of crown combines the durability of titanium with the mimicking ability of porcelain to create a hybrid tooth crown. Typically, they are used for front and back teeth to enhance both aesthetics and durability.
- Resin crowns: One of the least expensive types of crowns, resin crowns are becoming less popular due to the popularity of titanium and porcelain crowns.
- Gold crowns: Gold crowns are rarely used since titanium and porcelain are used extensively. But still few people consider these. Usually, gold crowns are used to replace the molars in the back of the mouth.
- Temporary crowns: Temporary crowns are similar to the stainless steel ones. They help cover your teeth while you wait for your permanent crown. These crowns are usually made up of acrylic-based metals and your dentist may recommend to keep them in your mouth for up to two weeks.

When Do You Require a Tooth Crown?

Some of the most common reasons for dental crown implants are:

- When the tooth has become weak due to cavity or decay
- To cover and protect a damaged, natural tooth
- To protect a tooth post root canal
- To recover an implant
- To replace a large filling
- For aesthetics (if the tooth has become damaged through accidental trauma)
- To align your bite (if you suffer from malocclusion)

What Does Getting a Crown Involve?

Nowadays, having a dental crown inserted is a very common and routinely performed procedure. Besides, it requires a few trips to the dental clinic. Dental crown implementation is not something that can be performed in one visit.

The dental crown implementation involves multiple steps:

- Your dentist will treat your tooth to eliminate the decay on your tooth (or teeth).
- Next, the mold of your tooth is taken to design a dental crown to fit the damaged area.
- After this, a temporary crown is fitted to the damaged tooth until your permanent crown is being designed. Till then, you must take good care of the temporary crown. Follow all the dentist's recommendations.
- Your actual crown should be ready within a week and you are good to enjoy your favorite meals.

In any case, if the crown falls out or gets chipped, you should not try to reattach the crown yourself, rather seek dental advice immediately.

Health / Epilepsy Awareness Month: Small Actions For Big Change by IndiCure: 7:22am On Nov 23, 2020
November is National Epilepsy Awareness Month (NEAM). This presents an opportunity to highlight one of the most common but often misunderstood, neurological disorders — Epilepsy.

It is the 4th most common neurological disease. It is more common in children and the elderly. While anyone of any age and any population can develop it, it is more common in children and the elderly. It’s estimated that about 3.4 million people nationwide — and more than 65 million globally suffer from epilepsy. Additionally, about 1 in 26 people will develop this disease at some point during their lifetime.

All about Epilepsy

Epilepsy is a central nervous system disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of seizures or fits. In simple words, it is a problem with the brain's electrical system.

Epilepsy: Symptoms

Seizures can cause symptoms such as a loss of consciousness, unusual jerking movements (convulsions) as well as other unusual feelings, sensations, and behaviors.

There are many different types of seizures. Generalized seizures involve the whole brain and therefore the whole body is affected. Focal seizures involve only part of the brain.

In most cases, a person will have the same type of seizure each time, so their symptoms will be similar from episode to episode.

Causes of Epilepsy

Epilepsy occurs as a consequence of permanent changes in the brain either due to some medical disorder or injury to the brain.
The most common known causes of epilepsy include:

-Traumatic brain injury
-Stroke or transient ischemic attack
-Loss of brain function, dementia
-A congenital brain disorder is the brain disorders present from birth
-Brain tumors
-Cerebral infections including meningitis, encephalitis, brain abscess
-Abnormal blood vessels in the brain
-Metabolic disorders like phenylketonuria
-Bleeding or hemorrhage of the brain

Treatment options

The treatment options for epilepsy include:

Medication: Anti-convulsant or anti-epileptic drugs are the most common treatment for epilepsy. If one medication is not successful in controlling seizures, the doctors switch the drugs or adjust the dosage.

Surgery: If your doctors can determine that your seizures always begin in a single area of the brain, removing that part of the brain can stop them or make seizures easier to manage. Surgery can also treat conditions that cause seizures, such as brain tumors.

The procedures included in this approach are:

-Temporal lobe resection surgery
-Functional Hemispherectomy

Palliative: This approach has opted when there is no definite lesion identified. This procedure aims to reduce the frequency and severity of the seizures by disrupting the nerve pathways that propagates the seizure.

Seizure First Aid

Educate Others About Seizure First Aid. Show others how to take care of someone having a seizure. Seizure First Aid is simple - Three Ss: Stay, Safe, Side.

-STAY with the person and start timing the seizure. Remain calm and check for medical ID.
-Keep the person SAFE. Move or guide away from harmful objects.
-Turn the person onto their SIDE if they are not awake and aware. Don't block the airway, put something small and soft under the head, loosen tight clothes around the neck.
-Do NOT put anything in their mouth. Don't give water, pills, or food until the person is awake.
-Do NOT restrain.
-STAY with them until they are awake and alert after the seizure. Most seizures end in a few minutes.

Learn to recognize the symptoms and get medical help when necessary.

Health / Teeth Whitening In India by IndiCure: 3:13pm On Jul 22, 2020
White teeth look always attractive, young, and vital. One with sparkling white teeth can talk and laugh carefree. Since the first thing, we notice when we greet someone is the smile. Unfortunately, not everyone has white teeth, often brown or gray.

But one should not worry if they do not have white teeth since teeth whitening is available worldwide. Also, the dentist knows how and what he has to do. Moreover, if you consider teeth whitening in India, you will have to spend little money on a beaming smile.

Let's know how does teeth whitening works

To begin with, teeth are thoroughly examined and you are prepared for the professional teeth cleaning. First, the gums and lips are covered completely, so that the white mass doesn't come in contact with them. Now, a special laser lamp is turned on and the dentist puts on the gel. With the light work and the gel, the discoloration and stains on the teeth miraculously disappear. Finally, the protection is removed and you can rinse off! And it's done! There you have bright sparkling teeth that will give you the much-needed confidence to have a smile on your face.

The gel used reacts with oxygen and with the help of the laser lamp the dental impurities are eliminated. The enamel gets a lighter color and thus the discoloration is solved.

How long the results last?

With proper care, the teeth whitening results can last for years without the need for a new sitting. The results may last up to three years. Moreover, the treatment is completely painless and very gentle.

Types of Teeth Whitening

In-office Whitening: Peroxide gel is applied to the tooth and a laser light apparatus is followed by that to accelerate the whitening process. It can be used for both intrinsic and extrinsic tooth discolorations.

Dentist-prescribed at-home whitening: It consists of gels and strips with a mouth tray. It is a low concentration peroxide of the office version and is applied for 1 hour or throughout the night. It is used for extrinsic discolorations.

Teeth whitening cost in India

The treatment for teeth whitening in India is in its growing phase. With state of the art technology and new laser treatments, the cost for teeth whitening in India is as cheap as INR 12000 (approximately 200 USD). The home whitening system starts from as low as USD 95 with an instant whitening system costing around USD 375.

With the advancement in the medical tourism industry and the availability of cosmetic dentistry at state-of-the-art dental clinics in India, availing dental treatment abroad is no more left an uphill struggle. One needs to get in touch with medical tourism companies that have an association with the best dental clinics in India.

Health / Body Lift Surgery In India by IndiCure: 6:52am On Mar 02, 2020
Certain areas of the body may begin to sag unsightly due to age, weight fluctuation or after dramatic weight loss. People experiencing these concerns may attempt numerous diet and exercise regimens to get better results. Unfortunately, these attempts are frequently not enough. A body lift procedure removes the excess fat and helps in reversing the effects of sagging. This improves the tone and shape of the tissues to provide a smoother body contour.

Depending on the patient's needs and desires, Body Lift surgery can smoothen and tighten the skin around many parts of the body. The entire procedure can help in contouring the midsection, buttocks, legs, arms, face, and neck through options like a tummy tuck, liposuction, breast reduction, breast lift, breast augmentation, face lift, and neck lift surgery.

What makes a good candidate for Body Lift Surgery?
[/i]
Candidates for the procedure are adult males or females:

• Who have stabilized weight loss
• Who are physically healthy and mentally stable
• Who do not have any conditions that can increase the risk of surgery or impair healing
• Who have realistic expectations and understands the surgery well
• Who are non-smokers
• Who will be committed to lead a healthy lifestyle post-surgery

Body Lift Procedures[i]


Body Lift surgery is a combination of plastic surgery procedures that are chosen depending on the body and expectations of the patient. Typically, the procedures include:

Whole Body Lift: Generally, the whole body lift is considered by patients who have experienced massive weight loss and want to remove the folds of excess skin. According to the needs of an individual, body contouring procedures are combined together to trim and contour the individual’s figure.

Arm Lift: Embarrassed by loose skin on the upper arms, many women attempt to hide their arms with long sleeve dresses. With Brachioplasty (Arm Lift), the silhouette of the upper arm can be improved drastically.

Buttock lift: Some women are unhappy with the shape and size of their buttocks. Some might experience this concern even after dramatic weight loss. In such cases, a buttock lift can re-contour the buttocks to create a more youthful and natural appearance.

Body Lift Cost in India[i][/i]

India offers the most affordable and quality plastic surgery procedures performed by board-certified plastic surgeons who are world-renowned with great skills and expertise. Therefore, when planning to undergo body lift, one can choose India for the best value for your money and get the best outcomes.

The cost of a body lift in India depends on various factors which include whether you wish to undergo upper body lift or lower body lift, surgeon’s expertise and experience, your medical condition, facility and the city where the procedure would be performed.

The cost of a lower body lift in India varies from US $3,900 to $5,900 while the cost of a total body lift or full-body lift in India varies from US $6,900 to $8,900. These costs typically include hospital stay, surgeon’s fees, anesthesia, pre-operative checks, medicines and consumables, post-op consultations at the hospital.

If you are among those who are unhappy with the loose skin around your body and want to have an affordable experience abroad, then you can consider Body Lift Surgery in India.

Health / Cosmetic Surgery For Men Over 40 by IndiCure: 8:14am On Jan 15, 2020
When people think of cosmetic surgery, they often picture beautiful women. It is believed that women are more attracted to cosmetic surgery to enhance their appearance. However, lately, more and more men are seeking cosmetic surgeries. Even they have learned that looking good is just not only for women. Men, too, wish to look handsome!

[img][/img]

According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, cosmetic surgery in men is on the rise and there has been a 273 percent increase in the number of male cosmetic procedures since 1997. Here, we list some of the hottest cosmetic procedures for men over 40.

Liposuction

With age, men tend to build up fat deposits in the abdomen, chest, and love handles. Even men with a healthy weight can struggle with unwanted fat deposition. Diet and exercise can take care of this fat to some extent but the stubborn fat might never leave your body.

One of the most popular procedures, Liposuction, can remove stubborn fat and give you the desired body contour. The procedure breaks up and removes the fat deposits from specific areas. The fat is removed using a cannula which is inserted into the skin. Using a high-pressure vacuum, the cannula removes fat.

If men who have managed your weight by diet and exercise and only left with double chin or love handles, they can opt for this procedure. Liposuction permanently removes fat deposits to give you a leaner look.

Male Breast Reduction

Although women are known to suffer from hormonal issues, men too face the issue. Hormonal imbalance or simply being over-weight can cause enlarged or over-developed breasts. The condition, known as Gynecomastia, is emotionally difficult for men. Due to the condition, many men have avoided some activities that draw attention to the condition.

Thanks to cosmetic surgery, a procedure can solve this issue related to men. Gynecomastia correction surgery involves cutting out excess chest glandular tissue that improves the overall chest contour. The surgery is often combined with liposuction to restore a firm and masculine chest.

Hair Transplants

It’s not a surprise that age can thin your hair or even make you bald. In these cases, hair transplants can help you restore the look of a head full of hair. The procedure involves transplanting hair follicles from another part of the body to the part which is balding. Men with good health can opt for this procedure, provided they have sufficient hair in the donor area to perform the procedure successfully.

In recent years, the advancements in hair transplant technology, techniques like Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) & Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT) have provided dramatic and permanent results. A good number of men are opting for hair transplants for a natural-looking and permanent solution to their hairline problems.

Rhinoplasty

As we age, the shape of the nose changes too. Many men don’t like the shape of their nose as they age and eventually turn to cosmetic surgery. Rhinoplasty is the procedure that has been gifting many such men the nose they desire. Moreover, nasal issues like drooping tissue and constriction caused by aging can be corrected by rhinoplasty.

Rhinoplasty has two primary techniques – closed and open rhinoplasty. The procedure involves the addition of grafts or reduction of tissues. This not only changes the proportions of the nose the way you desire but also enhances facial harmony.

Eyelid Surgery

Many men over 40 tend to face the issue of drooping or stretched eyelids. As the muscles nearby weaken, the fat tends to build up under and above the eye. Although this might be a cosmetic issue for some, others experience a loss of peripheral vision due to the drooping skin.

Blepharoplasty or eyelid surgery, an outpatient procedure, involves removal of the excess skin and cutting the eyelid fold. In this case, scarring is well hidden since the cut is done on the fold or under the lashes of the lower eyelid.

Moreover, the procedure offers a minimally invasive way to help you restore a youthful look. The procedure lifts the saggy upper lids and smoothens the bags under the eye.

BOTOX®

One of the most notable signs of aging is wrinkles. Men struggling with deep wrinkles opt for Botox. One of the biggest breakthroughs in anti-aging ever, the procedure involves injecting a bacterium into the muscles that contribute to wrinkles on the face. The injection allows the wrinkles to relax and soften.

Since the procedure is minimally invasive, it has very few risks. The effects last for months. Overall, the procedure subtly refreshes your appearance making you look younger and confident.

India is now the most preferred destination for people seeking affordable plastic surgery from all across the world.

Health / Re: Best Way To Get Rid Of Belly Fat Without Going To The Gym by IndiCure: 11:24am On Dec 02, 2016
Liposuction is a great way to get rid of fat anywhere in the body. Liposuction of the abdomen is one of the most commonly opted cosmetic surgery procedures by men and women of all ages. Abdominal liposuction, sometimes referred to as Liposuction of the stomach, is particularly helpful to people who have the tendency to accumulate fat in the abdomen, which is resistant to diet and exercise. The procedure permanently removes the fat deposits, often considered as "problem area" by many patients giving them a flat smooth abdomen.

The cost of liposuction in India is much affordable than anywhere else in the world. For more information, visit https://www.indicure.com/cosmetic-surgery/liposuction.htm

Health / Breast Cancer- The Tamable Monster by IndiCure: 7:15am On Oct 13, 2016
Breast cancer is the most common cancers today not only in United States, but all across the world. It is estimated that 1 in 8 women in United States (almost 12%) would develop breast cancer in their lifetime. It is also estimated that in 2016 around 250,000 new cases of invasive breast cancer would be diagnosed in women in US. 

It is not well known but men also develop breast cancer; although the incidence of breast cancer in men is less than in women. This is because the breast duct cells in men are not as developed as in females. The risk of a man developing breast cancer is 100 times less than females. The American Cancer Society estimates that about 2600 new cases of breast cancer in men will be diagnosed in 2016 and 440 men will die from the disease. It is usually observed that men usually being not much aware tend to neglect any lump or signs of breast cancer until it’s too late and the cancer has spread.

The statistics are indeed scary. Breast cancer seems like a big monster ready to gulp many precious lives. But the good news is that the monster is very much tamable! And the best way to do that is to SCREEN YOURSELF REGULARLY.  Doctors all over the world recommend regular breast screening for women above 40.

The aim of Breast cancer screening is to detect breast cancer at an early stage before the signs or symptoms begin to show.  Early detection of breast cancer not only improves survival rate, but the outcomes of the treatment are also much better.

Women should regularly check themselves for any lumps and look for symptoms.  However, it is important to note that self screening cannot replace medical screening.  Medical screening at regular interval catches the disease in early stages. Medical screening may include clinical examination, genetic screening, ultrasound, mammography, MRI.  Your doctor would recommend the best technique after he/ she does an examination and looks into your risk factors.

All women in UK between 50 and 70 are offered breast screening every three years. Almost 2.8 million women are screened for breast cancer every year in UK. American Cancer Society recommends that Women aged 45 to 49 years should get mammograms every year.

Otcober is observed as Breast cancer awareness month, which is an annual campaign to increase awareness about the disease.  While most women are aware of breast cancer, many are either not aware or often forget about screening themselves and encouraging others to do so. The idea of the campaign is to encorage more and more women to educate themselves about the disease and catch it in its earliest stage.

It is very important to know the signs and symptoms of breast cancer and if any abnormality is detected, that should be immidiately brought to the notice of healthcare professional.  Most people who have breast cancer will initially notice only one or two signs. But at the same time it is important to note that presence of signs does not necessarily means that you have breast cancer.

Following are the important signs you should look for:

Change in How the breasts and nipples feel

Change in the breast or nipple appearance

Any discharge from the Nipple- particularly clear of bloody discharge

John Hopkins Medical Centre states that all adult should perform self breast examination atleast once a month. They state that in 40 % of the cases when women are detected of breast cancer in early stage, they have felt a lump during self examination. It is thus very important to perform self examination at regular intervals.

Self breast examinations should be performed in shower, in front of a mirror or while lying down. You should feel for any lump, hardening or swelling using the pads of your fingers. In front of mirror, visually inspect your breasts and look for any changes in the contour, swelling or dimpling of the skin or changes oin the nipples. Squeeze the nipples gently and look for any discharge.

Pink ribbon is used as a symbol for breast cancer awareness. The use of pink ribbons was sratred in 1991 during the race for breast cancer survivors when a well known foundation handed over pink ribbons to people participating in the race. 

We should all join hands and spread as much awareness about Breast cancer and early screening as possible and tame the monster and save precious lives. IndiCure has taken the pledge to do its bit.

Health / Why A Medical Tourism Agency Is Your “friend” While Choosing Treatment Overseas by IndiCure: 11:10am On Apr 27, 2016
Visiting the doctor for your or your loved one’s medical treatment can be a pretty angst-ridden experience. This becomes compounded if you are contemplating treatment abroad and making plans for traveling out of the country. But, not all is troublesome when professional medical tourism planners can make all the difference when it comes to the much needed human touch, figuratively and literally.

How do you decide on traveling abroad?
If you are traveling overseas to India, then one of the first things that you should seriously consider is using the services of a medical tourism agency.

Such an agency will:
• Take care of all the international travel, local accommodation and local transportation associated with your travel.

• Eliminate the waiting time to see the best doctors in India.
• Give foremost priority to your health and requirements.

All of it simply means that you can focus your energies towards recovery and allow the best of doctors and nurses to take care of you.

It is all about your time
Medical treatment abroad is something that should be planned according to your convenience and time. Medical travel companies would, therefore, wait, even if it is for a whole year, to ensure that you come at a time that is comfortable to you. During this time, the company will certainly keep in touch with you and ensure that all the paperwork is taken care of.

Your treatment shall be started as soon as you reach India. This would include:
• Pick up from the Airport.
• Prompt appointments with the doctors
• Immediate scheduling of the surgery
• Professional post-operative care
• Arrangement of your accommodation according to your budget and preference
• Rehabilitation services if required
• Inland travel
• Drop back to the hospital

Why choose India?

While many countries rank very highly in terms of medical facilities, the human touch that Indian Medical tour planners and medical infrastructure deliver is something that attracts patients from everywhere in the world.

India also offers the additional advantage of fabulous tourist destinations. So, if your surgery does allow travel, you can certainly ask your medical travel company to arrange for your travel and stay in some extremely scenic locations which will surely aid in your recuperation process as well.

Best doctors in India are attuned to the patient’s needs which make them capable of understanding patients and being sensitive to their requirements. Complete information is therefore delivered in a language that is patient friendly.

Most importantly perhaps, doctors and nurses in India speak excellent English. This allows them to truly connect with their patients. At the end of the day, it is truly genuine care and medical competence that you get to see which shall give you extra confidence.

Undoubtedly, the personal care and attention of professional medical tour operators can make all the difference to a person traveling across the globe for world-class medical care in India.

Health / Brazilian Butt Lift Plastic Surgery To Get Firmer And Fuller Buttocks by IndiCure: 12:33pm On Jan 07, 2016
A Brazilian Butt lift can provide amazing results and is becoming popular by the day among women who are dissatisfied with the shape of their behind. As this procedure is a combination of liposuction from fatty areas and injecting the purified fat in the buttocks, the final result is a beautifully contoured and proportioned body. Though it is quite safe, there are several things that one needs to consider before taking the final decision.


Cost and Expertise


A person who has decided on opting for Brazilian butt lift surgery in India, is doing so, because of two major factors. One is the cost involved in BBL, and second is the skill of cosmetic surgeons. Brazilian butt lift being a cosmetic surgery, your insurance will not cover it and the entire bill will have to be borne by you. Therefore, it is logical to seek cost-efficient options. The other is the lack of expertise in the vicinity or in one’s own country. To the delight of many, India has some of the top board certified plastic surgeons, but only a few chosen best are partnered with IndiCure.

But for anyone who is considering fat augmentation of the buttocks, the skill and experience of the plastic surgeon who is going to perform the surgery is extremely important. It is the skill of the surgeon that ensures long-lasting and natural looking results. Though cost is a consideration, it cannot be the deciding factor on its own.

Once you have decided upon going for a butt lift, take the time to select the right medical tourism company that connects you with a surgeon who is experienced enough in performing this particular surgery. A pre-surgical discussion and evaluation by the surgeon will give you a fair idea about his experience as well as of what to expect.


Safety and Recovery


In the hands of an experienced plastic surgeon, this is a low risk surgery. As your own fat is being used, the chances of infection or rejection are NIL. But it is still surgery and being prepared mentally and physically helps to improve the outcome. To minimize the chances of any complications, you would be expected to quit smoking and alcohol at least two weeks before the surgery. You would also be required to wear a compression garment after the surgery for some time to keep the swelling down and maintain the results.

Most people report discomfort from the area where they have had liposuction rather than from the butt where the fat has been injected. Pain and discomfort is common, but will gradually subside in a couple of days. But the general advice is limited sitting on your butt for the first two weeks following which you should avoid sitting on hard surfaces for another few weeks.

Expected Results

Brazilian butt lift re-contours your body to provide optimal shape and volume to your butt. However, each individual body is different and the results are also likely to be different. The surgeon works with the original shape of the person’s body and it is always advisable to be clear on what to expect.

One of the biggest concerns is how long does the Brazilian Butt lift last. Though it is normal for a little fat to be reabsorbed, the effects are likely to last a lifetime. Ultimately, if you have done your homework and have thought this out well, the sculpted look that it provides to your body is well worth the effort.

Health / What Is Uterine Artery Embolization & Where To Have Affordable Treatment Abroad? by IndiCure: 9:49am On Dec 23, 2015
Uterine fibroids are benign growths that can be treated in different ways, of which uterine artery embolization has now become quite popular because of many advantages the treatment offers over other techniques.

What is uterine artery embolization?

Uterine fibroids are non-cancerous growths and with uterine artery embolization, the doctor uses a minimally invasive treatment methodology which sees the injection of embolic agents into the uterine arteries. This causes the blockage of the fibroid vessels which then go on to shrink and die away.

It helps women who have to deal with problems such as:

• Painful menstruation.
• Heavy bleeding during periods.
• Abdominal swelling due to the fibroids.

This procedure has gained popularity because it is not a full-blown surgery and it allows women to retain their uterus. Your eligibility for the procedure will be decided by the surgeon who will look into the size and location of the fibroids among other things.

Where should you go for the procedure?


For people traveling from Nigeria, there are plenty of options when it comes to medical tourism. According to one study, India gave 47% of visiting Nigerians access to world-class facilities in the year 2012. The infrastructure and technology in India has given Nigerians the confidence of undergoing the procedure at affordable and high quality facilities.

India also offers the latest technology and surgeons who are trained at international facilities. The cost of the procedure will also justify the travel to India from Nigeria. Depending on the facility that you choose, the costs are around $3500. It is good to get complete costing details before choosing your hospital in India. A medical tour operator will certainly be able to help in this regard.

Why choose India?


International patients travel to India because of cost and quality. Places such as Mumbai, Delhi and Bangalore offer hospitals that are JCI accredited. You can also tap into medical facilities that are:

• Known for their accurate diagnosis.
