Plastic surgery in Mexico

Thinking about having plastic surgery in Mexico? Before you compare prices, make sure you know who will operate on you, where, what your price depends on, and how to plan your trip. This guide walks you through each of those decisions.

What patients from the US usually ask us about

Most of the patients who write to us from the United States are looking for body and breast surgery: a mommy makeover, a tummy tuck, breast augmentation or a breast lift, often combined with liposuction. Combining procedures can mean one anesthesia and one recovery, but total time in the operating room is a safety limit, so that decision is made at your consultation.

Where to start

First, confirm your surgeon's credentials. Next, understand what is behind the price you are quoted. Then plan your stay around your recovery rather than around the cheapest flight. The pages below cover each step.

Plastic surgery in Mexico procedures

  • Cost and pricing

    We do not publish a price list, because your price depends on your case. Your surgeon needs to see what you would like to change and review your health before giving you a figure you can rely on. You receive your final price at your consultation.

  • Travel and recovery

    Plan your trip around your recovery, not the other way around. How long you stay in Mexico City depends on your procedure, how you heal and your early follow-up visits, so your length of stay is defined with you at your consultation. Avoid booking a return flight you cannot change.

  • Safety and credentials

    The most important decision you will make is who operates on you and where. Whichever surgeon you choose, confirm these two things yourself before you travel.

  • Is plastic surgery in Mexico safe?

    It can be, when you choose a certified plastic surgeon, a fully equipped hospital and a realistic plan for your recovery. No surgery is free of risk in any country, so what matters is how much of that risk you can control before you book.

Tell me what you have in mind

Tell me whatever you'd like. If there's medical history, medication or test results, we'll go over those at the consultation — that's where they're handled privately.

We'll be in touch to schedule your consultation at the office. The diagnosis happens there — I need to see you to tell you what's really right for you, and that can't be done over a message.
