Doctors accreditation in Hungary

Plastic and cosmetic surgeons, dental surgeons, dentist and all kind of doctors in Hungary need to obtain a governmental certificate from the Hungarian State National Health Commission and Medical Service in order to practise. This institution is the equivalent of the Health Care Commission in the UK. And in order to practise all doctors in Hungary need to be members of the Hungarian Medical Chamber. Would you like to undertake a plastic or cosmetic surgery procedure in Hungary, we suggest you to check the surgeon’s accreditation in advance with the Hungarian Medical Chamber or with the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (ISAPS) or the European Association of Plastic Surgeons (EURAPS).

Doctors qualification in Hungary

Plastic and cosmetic surgeons in Hungary must be qualified general doctors and must obtain experience before they specialise in aesthetic plastic and reconstructive surgery. Before becoming a plastic and reconstructive surgeon, doctors have to study and to take surgery training at least 13 years that comes together from the 6 years study at the medical university, then taking surgery training at a clinic or hospital for 3-5 years before gaining their diploma to be a full medical surgeon, then they undertake further training for 1-2 years and another exam before achieving a diploma to practise plastic surgery.

What guarantee should the patient expect?

Regarding the result of any plastic surgical procedure there are no guarantees whether at home or abroad. Especially in plastic surgery results vary so much with each individual, and the perceived goal could be very different from the attainable goal. However, the one guarantee a patient can ask for is that if a complication should arise, the surgeon will correct it without additional fees.
