Plastic surgery in Cartagena for international patients
Planning plastic surgery in Colombia starts with a medical conversation. Dr. Fulvio Correa’s international-patient program describes virtual assessment, an in-person evaluation in Cartagena, support during recovery and follow-up after returning home.
Before you plan the trip, read the guide to plastic surgery in Colombia: how to choose a surgeon, what to check at the clinic, and how the process works.
The surgical figure is written after you . The consultation fee is USD 150 / COP 400,000 and is not a surgery price. The recovery house (24/7 nursing, transfers, and supplies) is arranged at the valuation and has no package price.
Your journey
From your first conversation to your return home.
A clear sequence helps you understand what happens next. Your procedure, preparation and travel arrangements are discussed as an individual plan, rather than a fixed itinerary that applies to everyone.
01
Start with a virtual assessment
Discuss your goals, medical history and expectations with the practice before making travel arrangements. This conversation helps identify what needs to be evaluated and which options to discuss. A request for a consultation does not establish eligibility for surgery.
02
Prepare your questions and your trip
The team describes guidance on required examinations and preparation before travel. Ask which records to provide, how appointments will be coordinated and what your proposed care plan includes. Confirm the medical schedule before committing to an itinerary.
03
Meet the team in Cartagena
An in-person evaluation forms part of the process after arrival. Use this appointment to review your surgical plan, ask remaining questions and confirm preparation with the doctor. Your final plan is based on your individual assessment.
04
Confirm the surgical arrangements
Surgery includes medical supervision and a coordinated team. Ask for the name of the surgical facility, the professionals involved and the arrangements relevant to your procedure. Request these details as part of your written plan.
05
Plan space and support for recovery
Recovery includes medical follow-up and an environment that prioritizes privacy and rest. Confirm the accommodation, assistance, check-up schedule and services included in your own arrangements before you travel.
06
Discuss the return journey and follow-up
Our team coordinates remote follow-up after you return home. Agree on your communication channel and follow-up arrangements before departure. The timing of travel must be discussed with your treating team in the context of your recovery.

Planning and support
More than an itinerary. A coordinated plan.
We include preparation, recovery support and continued communication in care for international patients. Ask Sofía to help coordinate your initial enquiry and explain the next step. Medical decisions remain with the treating team.
Before confirming your trip
Request a written breakdown of the proposed care and services.
Confirm which examinations and documents the team needs.
Discuss accommodation, local transport and whether a companion is appropriate.
Confirm where surgery and follow-up appointments would take place.
Ask how to contact the team during your stay and after returning home.
An informed decision
Choosing your surgeon
Review the doctor’s published training and verify professional memberships through their public directories. Ask about the proposed facility, who will provide your care, the alternatives to the procedure and the follow-up plan. Membership is one part of that assessment; it is not a guarantee of an outcome.

How long should I stay in Cartagena?
There is no single itinerary for every procedure or patient. Ask the treating team to confirm the expected stay and the conditions for your return journey after assessing your individual plan and recovery.
What happens when I arrive?
The program includes an in-person medical evaluation in Cartagena. This is an opportunity to review your plan and preparation with the doctor before surgery.
What recovery support is available?
Supervised recovery, follow-up and professional assistance are part of your plan. Confirm the accommodation and services included in your individual quotation, as well as any arrangements you need to make separately.
Should I travel with a companion?
Discuss this with the team during your assessment. The appropriate arrangements depend on your procedure and circumstances; do not assume that the same advice applies to every patient.
Is there follow-up after I return home?
Our team coordinates remote follow-up after you return home. Confirm the contact channel, appointment arrangements and how to raise concerns before leaving Cartagena.
