Sensual Body Dream gives you clear guidance as to what to do from your first request for an information pack right up until your safe return home.
We would request that you read it carefully and fill in all forms necessary for each stage of the procedure.

Phase 1: GENERAL COST ESTIMATE - Free and with no Commitment:
Prior to any plastic surgery an estimate must be provided.
If you want a precise cost estimate you need to complete the the pre-consultation form.

Two color photos of the area to be operated should be sent– one profile and one full frontal. These should be sent via email, along with your medical records. This will enable the surgeon to evaluate your case.
For orthodontic and/or dental surgery, a preliminary meeting with the doctor in Bolivia is essential.


Only requests with accompanying photographs will be taken into consideration
N.B : Information will remain strictly confidential
 

Phase 2: CONFIRMATION OF ESTIMATE
After examination of your medical history informations and photos, if the surgeon reaches a positive conclusion, we will send you his evaluation along with his professional records and credentials.
You will be able to obtain an all inclusive quotation which includes the cost of the surgery tailored to your needs and expectations as well as the tariff of your chosen accommodation.
The amount fixed by Sensual Body Dream on the first stage is your definitive amount. With Sensual Body Dream there is no hidden costs.
Other medical organizations give you an "estimate quote" that generally changes once you meet your surgeon "after a personal evaluation".
Once in Bolivia, with Sensual Body Dream, there is no penalty if the operation is cancelled; you will only owe the extra nights in the hotel.
 

Phase 3: BOOK YOUR TRIP
Once you have made your decision, you will be able to make the reservation of your trip.
Your assistant will be in charge of planning your trip and he/she will arrange all the appointments and make the reservations with plastic surgeons, anesthetist, medical team, clinic, medical laboratory, hotel etc...

To make the reservation of your trip you have 2 options:
1) You can make the reservation of your trip paying the total amount of your package before arriving to Bolivia. In this case you will have to make an international bank to bank transfer.

2) Or if you don't want to pay any amount before you meet the surgeon, you can make the reservation of your trip just sending us by email the copy of your travel arrangement (purchase confirmation of your flight ticket), including all the information concerning your flight (date of arrival and departure, hour of arrival, Airline Company, flight number, etc).
This process will avoid you to make an international bank-to-bank transfer or to send money before your arrival in Bolivia.
If you choose this way to reserve your trip; the total amount of your package will have to be paid in Bolivia (after your first consultation with the surgeon).

The payment:
If you choose to pay your package in Bolivia; we only accept American dollars, or Euros.

There is no penalty if the operation is cancelled; you will only owe the extra nights in the hotel.
