Hello everyone,
A friend of mine recently started looking into cosmetic procedures here in Nicosia, and I ended up helping with the research. I thought I would write down what we found, since it might save someone else some time.
Start with the type of procedure. Cosmetic and reconstructive work can be very different, so it helps to know whether you are looking at something like eyelid surgery, liposuction, breast surgery, gynecomastia treatment, or a non-surgical option such as Botox and fillers. Each one has a different recovery time, so plan your work and travel around it.
Check the surgeon, not just the clinic. Look for board certification, years of experience in the specific procedure, and whether the surgeon does the consultation personally.
Ask where the surgery takes place. Procedures should be done at a proper, specialised medical centre with appropriate facilities and aftercare.
When we searched for Plastic surgery Nicosia , one option we came across was Dr Georgiou, a board certified plastic surgeon who works in both Nicosia and Limassol. The practice is based at Dikteon Medical Center on Strovolos Avenue, and the approach is a one-on-one consultation before any procedure, with the patient’s needs and expectations first. They list breast augmentation, liposuction, blepharoplasty, gynecomastia, facial and body surgery, reconstructive surgery, and Botox and fillers.
If you want to contact them:
Nicosia: Dikteon Medical Center, 290 Strovolos Avenue
Limassol: 79 Archiepiskopou Makariou III, Mesa Geitonia
Hours: Mon to Fri, 9AM-1PM and 4PM-7PM
Phone: +357 25 10 77 11 / +357 95 10 77 11
My advice is to meet at least two surgeons before deciding, bring a list of questions, and never feel pressured into booking on the same day.
If anyone here has gone through a procedure in Nicosia, I would be really interested to hear how recovery went and what you wish you had known beforehand.
