Address the signs of aging and tiredness in the face
I found the perfect dentist and saved a fortune. Thank you RevaHealth.com
Travelling for a brow-lift is a rewarding way to fully enjoy the benefits of this rejuvenating procedure. All those creases that have accumulated over the years can be smoothed away by the time you return from your journey. Costa Rica and South Africa are at the more exotic end of the travel spectrum or maybe you would prefer a European destination, in the Czech Republic or Belgium? Whatever the destination, talented, fully qualified surgeons are available to give you a new fresher look.
Members of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons performed over 38,000 brow-lifts in 2005, alone*.
An audit of members of the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons revealed that brow-lifts accounted for 3% of all cosmetic surgical procedures**.
Allow at least two weeks for the most visible after effects of the surgery to recede. Do not spend time in the sun following the procedure: ensure this is possible in the destination of your choice. Plan no strenuous activities while abroad.
Over 20,000 patients have used RevaHealth.com to find the right clinic or hospital for them.

Organizations
The Ministry of Health holds overall responsiblitiy for the management of healthcare within Poland.
Doctors are registered with the Polish Chamber of Physicians and Dentists. This is an independant body responsible for overseeing the profession in Poland. It is divided into 24 regional chambers with activities co-ordinated by the Supreme Medical Council.
The Polish Society of Plastic, Reconstructive & Aesthetic Surgeons is the main professional body representing plastic surgeons in Poland. Plastic surgeons specialising in head and neck surgery may also be members of The Polish Society of Otorhinolaryngologists, Head and Neck Surgeons.
Education
The basic medical degree takes 6 years. Graduates are awarded the title Lekarz and following this doctors either complete a compulsory 1 year internship or apply for training in one of the basic specialties: internal medicine, emergency medicine or family medicine.
Plastic surgeons hold a Specialist Diploma with the title "Chirurgia plastyczna" representing addtional specialist training of 5 years - This is commonly refered to as the "second-level specialization degree in plastic surgery".
Poland operates a mandatory system of compulsory continuing education with all doctors required to amass 250 continuing education points in a 5 year period. Continuing education points are only valid for accreditited courses and failure to gain the required number of points results in the suspension of the right to practice. Professional organizations such as the Polish Society of Plastic, Reconstructive & Aesthetic Surgeons help organize training and seminars specific to their specialties.
Over 20,000 patients have used RevaHealth.com to find the right clinic or hospital for them.
Complaints
A Screener for Professional Liability (SPL) investigates any complaint against a medical professional. Their findings are adjudicated by a regional medical court. Appeals are sent to the supreme medical court. Full details are available on the site of the Polish Chamber of Physicians and Dentists in the reference section below.
Storage and Access to Medical Records
Polish doctors are bound by both ethical and legal constraints to respect patient confidentiality and ensure the security of their data.
Information must be stored in paper form but may be backed up by electronic means. The Act on Access to Public Information (6th September 2001) mandates an individuals right to access information stored about them and includes sections on access to medical data. As an E.U member Poland has an additional requirement to comply with the E.U's laws on data protection and access.
