Plastic surgery recovery retreats

Well worth the money if you value minimal pain

Getting ill and recovering from it can be traumatic. Being in a clinic or hospital setting can be terrifying even if you are there for a minor illness - being surrounded by patients who are in various states of suffering can compound your suffering. And cosmetic surgery is no different.

While it is not possible to avoid all hospital stays - for serious illnesses, only a hospital has the staff and the equipment to take care of you, but for elective cosmetic surgery procedures, you can stay in a recovery retreat (where a nurse is available at all times and doctors are on call).  And where would these recovery retreats be located? Beverly Hills and surrounding areas, of course; the area claims to have the largest concentration of cosmetic surgeons in the world.

• Luxury rooms customized for people recovering from a medical procedure (wheel chair accessible, bathrooms for people with limited mobility, etc.)
• Privacy
• Gourmet food
• Personal care like massages, facials, manicures, pedicures, etc.
• Transportation to and from your doctor (in case you are traveling to Hollywood alone, you are in good hands)
• A family member can also stay with you

• Shanteque Recovery Retreat in the Le Meridien hotel in Beverly Hills
• Prive' Recovery retreat in the W Hotel, Westwood.
• Recouvrer in Newark
• Halcyon in Marina del Rey
• Serenity in Santa Monica
• Jade Healing Retreat in The Tower-Beverly Hills Hotel
• Villa Milana Retreat in Sherman Oaks

What is the cost?

The cost varies by hotel and the package that you select (plus, additional services may be charged as you use them), plan on spending around $500 or more each night. However, most clients find it useful to spend a few nights in a recovery retreat rather than being in a regular hotel.
