Cosmetic and plastic surgery in New Zealand is privately funded. There's no public subsidy and, in almost all cases, no insurance cover, so the full cost sits with you. For most procedures that means somewhere between $6,000 and $40,000, depending on what you're having done and who you choose to do it.
A personal loan through Nomu spreads that cost over a fixed term at a fixed rate, from $5,000 to $100,000, over one to seven years. There's no interest-free period that reverts to a higher rate later, and no finance arranged through the clinic. Funds are paid directly to your bank account, and you pay your chosen provider on their normal terms.

Some medical lenders in NZ work through networks of affiliated doctors and clinics - the loan and the provider come as a package.
A personal loan through Nomu works differently. Funds are paid to your nominated bank account, so you choose your own surgeon, specialist, or clinic on merit, compare quotes freely between providers, and can even fund treatment overseas - including flights and accommodation in the same loan.
Your medical decisions stay between you and your medical team.
You submit your application: Tell us about your financial situation and what you need to borrow. You do not need a quote from a medical provider before applying.
We review your application: We assess your application and identify the options best suited to your profile and needs.
Choose and proceed: Select an option that works for you. Loan contracts are issued electronically for signing.
Settlement: Once contracts are signed funds are typically available within 24 hours and often same day.
