The next big thing in luxury living is the plastic surgery tour and, no, we don't mean a trip to Double Bay to gawp at the new noses, breasts, necks and chins on display.

A plastic surgery tour is actually a 10-day holiday to an exotic locale - think Malaysia, Thailand or Cairns - that includes your choice of refurbishment, be it a boob job, botox or a brow lift.

"It is a great present idea: the surgery, a luxury holiday and complete care for less than the cost of just the treatment at home," said Louise Cogan, the director of Gorgeous Getaways, the company that organises the tours. A typical facelift package, which includes 10 days in Malaysia, is a snip at $6250. Just the thing for all those Christmas turkeys.
