Travel and Lodging After Surgery: How Our Out-of-Town Patient Support Works
If you are traveling for cosmetic surgery, having a clear plan for travel, lodging, and early post-op care can make the experience feel much easier. Many out-of-town patients want to know what support is available, how long they may need to stay locally, and how to plan lodging that supports recovery. This article explains how our out-of-town patient support works, including a travel credit and partner hotel options, and what to expect as you plan your visit.
Quick Answer
Out-of-town patients may qualify for a $1,000 travel credit that can be applied toward travel-related expenses, and we also offer discounted lodging through a partner hotel that is familiar with post-op needs. The exact timeline and best lodging plan depend on your procedure and recovery plan, so we recommend confirming your travel schedule after your consultation and surgical planning.

The $1,000 Travel Credit
Out-of-town patients may receive a $1,000 discount that you can apply toward travel expenses. This is intended to help reduce the burden of planning travel for surgery.
Common travel-related expenses patients use this for include:
-
Flights or transportation costs
-
Lodging and hotel expenses
-
Local travel during your stay
-
Recovery-friendly travel needs
Your team can confirm the details of how this credit applies based on your surgical plan and scheduling.
Partner Hotel Discounts for Post-Op Care
Recovery is easier when your lodging supports rest and comfort. We work with a partner hotel that offers discounts for our patients and understands the needs of post-op care.
A partner hotel option can be helpful because it often provides:
-
A convenient location for follow-up visits
-
A quieter environment that supports recovery
-
Staff familiarity with post-op guests
-
A setup that makes rest and downtime easier
Your team can share partner hotel details and instructions after your next step is confirmed.
How Long Should You Stay After Surgery?
The recommended length of stay depends on your procedure and your individual recovery plan. In general, you will want to plan for:
-
Time before surgery for check-in and preparation
-
Time after surgery for early recovery and follow-up
-
Flexibility in case an extra check-in is recommended
The safest travel timing is best confirmed once your plan is finalized.
Travel Planning Tips That Make Recovery Easier
A few simple choices can make a big difference during early recovery:
-
Choose lodging that is quiet, comfortable, and close to your appointments
-
Avoid booking travel that forces you to rush
-
Plan for a support person if recommended for your procedure
-
Pack comfortable clothing and recovery-friendly essentials
-
Give yourself buffer time and avoid heavy scheduling
Our goal is to support a smooth recovery, not a stressful travel timeline.
