16:30. Lima, Sep. 07. The medical tourism market in Peru has increased by 14%, a higher growth rate than the current value compound annual growth rate of 8% recorded in the category over the 2008-2013 period.

According to a report released by global research firm Euromonitor International, many inbound tourists travel to Peru for dental treatments, plastic surgery, laser operations and fertility treatments. 

These patients come mainly from Chile, the US and Spain, while there is a stream of people entering Peru across its Southern border from Northern Chile seeking medical treatment in the city of Tacna. 

Nevertheless, the report, entitled Health and Wellness Tourism in Peru, asserts that the vast majority of Peru’s medical tourism infrastructure is located in Lima.

It should be noted that the increasing demand for health and wellness tourism has helped to spread spas to other parts of the country, including commercial areas, and the most important ones are to be found in luxury hotels.
