Cosmetic surgery continues to win the hearts of people all over the world. Next stop is the Kingdom of Morocco, the only African nation that is not currently a member of the African Union. Morocco’s infatuation with beauty has tremendously helped the cosmetic surgery to progress in ways that specialists would never have expected to take place
Magharebia has more to say on this.
According to plastic surgeon Ramzy Rachid, Morocco is seeing a growing number of clients. The majority of practices have seen the number of patients double or even triple over the last few years. "Many patients come to us for simple size reductions," Rachid says. He says 60% to 70% of cosmetic surgery patients are younger than 40. "We are a long way from the average age of the past, which was sixty years. There's no typical profile."
The consumer "ends up being influenced by new images and techniques shown constantly on television. Cosmetic surgery has become a solution for many people. In the past, it was restricted to the elite. Today it has become accessible to people from all layers of society," Sociologist Abou al Mahacine Ali says.
Cosmetic surgery in Morocco is generally affordable. Aside from that, the presence of well-trained doctors, high-quality infrastructure and exciting packages, all made cosmetic surgery procedures both reliable and safe. This is perhaps one of the reasons why Morocco has also become a destination for medical tourism. Locals and foreigners are seeking cosmetic surgery procedures in the country, and their numbers keep on increasing as time goes by.
