THE desire for cosmetic surgery has been increasing worldwide in recent years and tourists are now seeking holiday getaways where they can not only unwind and relax but which are also known in the cosmetic surgery field.
Treatment in South Africa comes at a fraction of the cost of what many tourists would pay back home, which has turned the country into a cosmetic surgery hub.
Packages such as ‘Surgeon & Safari’ make the destination even more attractive offering the chance for treatment by a world-class surgeon with state-of-the-art facilities combined with five-star pampering and recuperation in sunny South Africa allowing patients time to heal and rejuvenate themselves, before returning home glowing and looking brand new.
The emergence of South Africa as a health tourism destination has prompted Grand Aurum Marketing in association with Aura Events to announce that the 7th World Health Tourism Congress will be held in Durban, South Africa from October 15 to 17 under the patronage and sponsorship of Kwazulu-Natal Tourism Office.
Grand Aurum Marketing is an internationally recognised tourism consultancy specialising in tourism development, representation and events for emerging governments and countries as well as investors and private corporations.
The company is the owner of the World Health Tourism Congress which is being promoted in the Mena region by Marta Consulting of Dubai.
