Our Story
Building Albania’s Premier Plastic Surgery Destination
At Hygeia Plastic Surgery, our vision is to be recognized as the leader in aesthetic excellence, patient safety, and surgical innovation, setting the standard for international medical tourism in plastic surgery.
Founded as part of Hygeia Hospital Tirana, our plastic surgery department represents a new standard in Albanian medical tourism—one built on hospital-grade safety, European surgical training, and complete transparency with international patients.
While Albania’s medical tourism industry initially focused on dental care and hair transplantation, Hygeia Plastic Surgery pioneered a different approach: offering the full spectrum of cosmetic and reconstructive procedures within a purpose-built hospital environment, combining the surgical expertise of Europe’s leading training institutions with Albania’s competitive pricing.
With a commitment to excellence, innovation, and patient-centered care, we have grown into one of the most recognized names in the region for international plastic surgery.
Today, Hygeia Plastic Surgery welcomes patients from across the globe, providing them with comprehensive surgical solutions in a safe, modern hospital setting where quality is never compromised.

Who we are
European Training. Hospital Infrastructure.
At Hygeia Plastic Surgery, our vision is to be recognized as the leader in aesthetic excellence, patient safety, and surgical innovation, setting the standard for international medical tourism in plastic surgery.
Our surgical team trained at Europe’s most prestigious institutions—Vienna, Berlin, Paris, and Milan—and hold European board certification and international society memberships. They bring the same level of expertise you’d find in Western Europe, with the practical advantage of operating in Albania where costs are 55-70% lower.
What truly sets us apart is our hospital environment. We don’t operate in a converted building or standalone clinic. Hygeia Hospital was purpose-built as a complete medical facility with modern operating theatres, advanced equipment including piezoelectric technology, experienced anesthesia teams, and full emergency resources. It’s the only hospital in Albania designed specifically as a hospital from both structural and functional perspectives.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Hygeia different from other plastic surgery clinics in Albania?
We operate within Hygeia Hospital—Albania’s only purpose-built, TEMOS-certified hospital designed specifically as a medical facility from the ground up. Unlike standalone clinics or converted buildings, we offer complete hospital infrastructure including modern operating theatres, advanced medical equipment, experienced anesthesia teams, and immediate emergency support if needed. Our surgeons trained at Europe’s leading institutions (Vienna, Berlin, Paris, Milan) and hold European board certification. You get European expertise and hospital-grade safety at Albanian pricing—typically 55-70% lower than Western Europe.
Are your surgeons really trained in Europe?
Yes. Our plastic surgeons completed their training at prestigious European institutions. They hold European board certification and maintain international society memberships. The difference isn’t expertise—it’s location. Operating in Albania means significantly lower overhead costs, which translates to more accessible pricing without compromising surgical quality or safety standards.
What procedures do you offer?
We offer the complete spectrum of plastic and cosmetic surgery: facial procedures (rhinoplasty, facelift, blepharoplasty, otoplasty), body contouring (liposuction, tummy tuck, body lift), breast surgery (augmentation, reduction, lift, reconstruction), intimate procedures (labiaplasty, vaginoplasty), and reconstructive work. If you’re considering a plastic surgery procedure, we can likely help—and we’ll be honest about what’s realistic for your case.
Do you provide support for international patients?
Absolutely. Our multilingual team (English, German, Italian, French) coordinates everything from your initial video consultation through your recovery. We arrange airport pickup, provide accommodation recommendations, handle all logistics, and ensure post-operative check-ups and follow-up care. You’ll have a dedicated coordinator who speaks your language throughout your entire journey. We can also arrange video consultations before you travel so there’s no need to fly to Albania just for an initial assessment.
Is it safe to have surgery in Albania?
When performed in a proper hospital environment with qualified surgeons, yes. Hygeia Hospital holds TEMOS certification for international patient care and was built specifically as a medical facility with hospital-grade sterilization standards, modern equipment, and full emergency capabilities. Our surgeons follow the same safety protocols and surgical standards they learned during their European training. We’re transparent about risks, recovery timelines, and realistic outcomes—if something isn’t right for you, we’ll tell you honestly rather than push you toward a procedure.
What happens if I need follow-up care after I return home?
We provide detailed post-operative instructions and stay in contact with you throughout your recovery. For the first 7-10 days post-surgery, you’ll remain in Tirana for initial follow-ups and suture removal. After you return home, we’re available via video consultation and can coordinate with local healthcare providers if additional follow-up is needed. We also encourage patients to schedule their return flights with enough flexibility to extend their stay if recovery requires it. Most patients find the follow-up process straightforward, and our team remains accessible long after you’ve left Albania.
