From your first message to your flight home
One person at the hospital coordinates your case in English, so you always know who to ask.
Free video consultation
You talk to the surgeon who would operate on you, show what you would like to change and get an honest opinion on what is possible.
A closed quote
You receive a written plan and a closed, itemised price. Nothing is booked until you have read it and asked every question.
Travel and hotel
We agree the dates with you and book one of our partner hotels near the hospital at a special rate.
Your surgery
Pre-operative checks, the operation and your first hours of recovery all take place in the hospital, with your surgeon on hand.
Recovery and follow-up
You rest in Valencia until your surgeon says you can fly. Your later check-ups can be done by video call.
The same surgery, at a Spanish price
Plastic surgery in Spain usually costs considerably less than in the United Kingdom, Ireland, Germany, Switzerland or the Nordic countries. The reason is the cost of running a hospital here, not a lower standard: Spanish plastic surgeons train for five years as hospital residents after medical school, and hospitals are inspected and licensed by the health authority.
After your video consultation you receive a closed quote: you will know the full amount, and exactly what it includes, before you book a flight.

Mia Femtech: breast augmentation in 15 minutes
Mia Femtech is a minimally invasive technique for a proportionate, discreet increase of up to two cup sizes. It is performed by surgeons certified by Mia, and Clínica Fontana is one of the centres that offers it in Spain.
- No visible scar on the breast: the implant is placed through a small incision hidden in the armpit
- No hospital stay: you walk out the same day and sleep at your hotel
- A natural result: the implant is shaped to your anatomy, for a proportionate and discreet change
For a patient travelling from abroad, that changes the trip: there is no hospital stay and no long convalescence to plan around. Your surgeon will tell you when you can return to sport and when you can fly.
Would you rather have a conventional implant placed with a gentler technique? Preservé breast augmentation at Clínica Fontana has its own page in English.
Not every patient is a candidate; that is decided at the consultation. Published evidence: three-year results of a 100-patient prospective study of Mia Femtech (Aesthetic Surgery Journal, 2026).
A unit dedicated to lipedema
Lipedema is a chronic disease of the fatty tissue that mainly affects women: legs, and sometimes arms, that are painful, bruise easily and do not respond to diet or exercise. It is estimated to affect between 8 and 12% of women, and many spend years without a diagnosis.
Our lipedema unit is led by Dr Hugo Esteban Espinosa, plastic surgeon. It covers the whole path: diagnosis and staging, conservative treatment, and lipedema-specific liposuction when surgery is indicated, planned in stages when more than one area needs treating.
- Diagnosis comes first: surgery is only proposed once lipedema has been confirmed and staged
- Surgery in a hospital, with anaesthetists on the team and medical cover 24 hours a day
- The first consultation is free, and your follow-up continues by video once you are home
The surgeons you will meet
All are specialists in plastic, aesthetic and reconstructive surgery and members of the Spanish Society of Plastic Surgery (SECPRE). Their registration numbers are public and appear on their profiles.
Valencia is a good place to recover
Spain’s third-largest city is flat, walkable and bright, with the sea a short tram ride from the centre. It is an easy place to spend the quiet days after an operation.
Some 300 days of sunshine a year
Mild winters and long springs and autumns: you can sit on a terrace in February.
Easy to reach
Direct flights from most European cities. The airport is about 20 minutes from the hospital by taxi or metro, and Madrid is under two hours away by high-speed train.
A hospital in the very centre
We are on Calle Alicante, beside the North Station and a few minutes’ walk from the old town, the Central Market and the Silk Exchange, a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Green and by the sea
Nine kilometres of gardens in the old Turia riverbed lead to the City of Arts and Sciences, and the city beaches are a few stops away.
The home of paella
Valencian food is a reason to come in itself, and the rice fields and lagoon of the Albufera are half an hour from the centre.
Partner hotels near the hospital
We work with hotels close to the hospital at special rates for our patients and companions, and we make the booking for you.
Questions patients from abroad ask
Is the first consultation really free?
Yes. The first consultation costs nothing and carries no obligation. For patients abroad it is held by video call with the surgeon who would operate on you.
Can I do everything in English?
Yes. Your video consultation, your quote and your stay are handled in English, and one person at the hospital coordinates your case from the first message.
How long do I need to stay in Valencia?
It depends on the operation. A Mia Femtech procedure needs a short stay; larger operations need more days before you can fly. Your surgeon gives you the exact plan at the consultation, and we organise your check-ups around it.
What does the quote include?
Your quote is closed and itemised, so you see exactly what is included before booking anything. If something is not covered, it is written down too.
What happens once I am back home?
Your surgeon follows your recovery by video call, and the hospital has a 24-hour line for patients if anything worries you.
Is it safe to have surgery abroad?
The questions to ask are the same as at home: who operates, where, and what happens if something needs attention. Here the answers are a board-certified plastic surgeon, a licensed hospital with 24-hour medical cover, and a team that stays in touch after you leave.
