Breast augmentation in Mexico: Pros and Cons

Breast augmentation in Mexico can offer significant cost savings, but it's crucial to weigh the potential benefits against the risks.

Pros	Cons
Lower costs. Breast augmentation in Mexico costs $4,250–$6,000, compared to $8,000+ in the US, offering savings up to 50%.	Safety concerns. Potential risks include infection rates of 1–2% and capsular contracture, similar to US averages. These can be minimized when performed by qualified surgeons in accredited facilities.
Qualified surgeons. Surgeons are certified by the Mexican Council of Plastic Surgery (CMCPER), often with US or European training and 10–30 years of experience.	Follow-up care. Post-surgery follow-up may be challenging from abroad, but many clinics offer telemedicine and coordinated discharge plans.
Modern facilities. Clinics in Tijuana and Cancun use FDA-approved Motiva® and Mentor® implants and are accredited by ISO, JCI, and COFEPRIS.	Different regulatory standards. COFEPRIS standards differ from the FDA, but top clinics meet international safety and quality certifications.
Comprehensive packages. Many providers offer all-inclusive packages with pre-op tests, transportation, recovery home, and 24/7 nursing, simplifying logistics.	Travel-related risks. Potential risks include travel stress and limited immediate access to your surgeon after returning home. These can be reduced by extending your stay for post-op monitoring.
Personal coordinator support. Bookimed’s medical coordinator helps compare clinics, request personalized quotes, and manage treatment logistics at no additional cost.

It's crucial to thoroughly research clinics and verify surgeon credentials before making a decision. When performed by qualified professionals in accredited facilities, breast augmentation in Mexico can offer safe and effective results at a lower cost.

Make sure your very clear on needs and expectations. Or they will nickel and dime you. Even though rides to and from border are included they will try to make to find your own way. After your surgery, no before, Will offer you a ride option across border but then later charge you for it. Also charged separately for bandaging materials used after surgery !!?!? if you dont pay you are sent away with nothing. (No they dont bandage you up unless you pay extra after the surgery). Beware of carlo he is not a point of contact only marketing manager and has no place in your medical conversations or booking, he only convoluted things between the dr and the real point of contact making for a frustrating and less then enjoyable experience.

The hospital advertised was not the one I went to. The operating room was thrown together i my opinion. Hardly anyone spoke English so I had a difficult time with the forms. I didn't even get a copy. After the surgery I was left on my back overnight night and was told I'll be ok. Once finally discharged the next morning, I only received antibiotics and ibuprofen. No instructions on how and what to do afterwards. I felt like they did what they was supposed to and dropped me off in the streets to fend for myself

The surgeon was good but the coordinator Carlo made too many mistakes. 1. Didn’t book continuous days at hotel. 2. As a result, I was kicked out of room the day I was in surgery. . 2. Need more after care days to remove drainage. I was abruptly kicked out of TJ while I was still feeling weak. Needed more days in Tijuana. At least 2 more. Return to America and no one wanted to remove drainage tubes. 3. The day nurse talked bad about me to everyone. The night nurse , Paulina was perfect. I would never recommend surgery in Mexico. No need to go viral with this because all of USA know this. Mexican are much better at picking fruits!

Their staff was very accommodating and thoughtful - everyone was super nice and considerate, especially Sara and Maria

First off, I used Aura Wellness Center, instead of Alice Beauty Clinic. And, their staff was very accommodating and thoughtful - everyone was super nice and considerate, especially Sara and Maria. Sara was the best English speaker there and helped me with everything. Maria was kind, warm, and also a great English speaker. They made it less lonely since I had this journey alone. Through Bookimed, I was assisted by Confidence, she was super thoughtful and checked up on me. She made sure I had connections with my medical coordinator and doctor. My coordinator was named Carlos. He was kind, answering all my questions and even texted me after my surgery numerous time to ensure I was recovering and satisfied with my results. My doctor was Dr. Ayala. I can't say much about him since he was in and out of the surgery room. I met him briefly. And, I'm unsure of my results as I am only one month post-op.

The staff at the clinic was accommodating. The coordinator from Bookimed and from the doctor ensured my questions were answered.

Dr. Ayala's brevity and lack of check up after the surgery. I didn't meet him more than 15 (when I was conscious since I was under anesthesia when he operated on me).

I felt like both were done taking exactly what I wanted into account and the overall symmetry at the end for my nostrils was excellent - my nose had been broken and before surgery lack of symmetry was a big issue

I had a really great experience with my doctor and care here. I wanted a very natural looking nose, not to look "doll-like" or like I had a rhinoplasty. Same for lip filler. I felt like both were done taking exactly what I wanted into account and the overall symmetry at the end for my nostrils was excellent - my nose had been broken and before surgery lack of symmetry was a big issue. I believe it required different degrees of cutting for each nostril so I'm very impressed that the end result's symmetry appears less than 1mm different from one another, that's a huge improvement from before. The shape is really nice and I was impressed that after surgery the packing was done in such a way that I was able to breathe through my nose the whole time, even during my recovery.

My experience has been very bad with Dr. Ayala… He only spoke with me for about 10 minutes before my surgery and afterwards was very reluctant to answer any questions when I said I was not happy with the outcome of my neck and ears. He said I could come back in a couple of months to have it fixed. When I came back. I decided to do liposuction on my abdominal area at the same time again the same thing no follow up as far as what I should be doing or wearing or anything… Again, one of my ears was not corrected and looked actually worse than before. When I came back to get my stitches out I pointed that out and he said that was normal and I argued saying that my other ear came out fine and this year looked bad. He said he couldn’t do anything else except wait for another couple of months and have me come back again. At this point, I showed him my liposuction, which looked bad as well with a lot of fibrosis happening… He gave no recommendation except to have ultrasound treatment done. I went online and discovered I should be wearing compression garments as well as getting massage for lymphatic fluid, which was building up. Once I went to the masseuse, she informed me of all the things I needed to be doing, but this is also cost me an extra thousand dollars. The whole experience was very disappointing and now I need to go to another surgeon to get one of my ears fixed hopefully for the last time But this all started Jan 3 and we are now into May and I’m still not out of the woods! I actually liked the personalities of everybody that I worked with, but I cannot in good conscience. Recommend them to anyone else because I know they will be very disappointed!

Dr. Marraquin was amazing. He spent over an hour with me on my consultation before my surgery. Let me know absolutely everything that was going to happen. His years of training is quite obvious to anybody who is requesting his services. He answered every question I could possibly think of. Additionally, he was available through text messaging 24 hours a day. He’s response time was impressive. I was very pleased with the outcome of my facelift. I would refer him to any buddy I know.

my doctor, Dr. M was amazing. He was available by text very experienced knowledgeable. I cannot comment on the outcome as of yet. I’m only 10 days out but definitely will be back to update my review so far he has a 10 out of 10 would recommend to anyone thinking of Having surgery. I really cannot say enough about his professionalism

I liked how the doctor explained everything to me in details that I understood made sure I understood exactly what was happening as well as being realistic about how long it will take in the journey to get there. And just knowing that he and his staff were there for me at all times during my stay.

Overall, it was a very positive experience and I don’t think I have any one particular item that I did not like of course nobody likes having surgery done however they made it as comfortable as possible

Breast augmentation in Mexico: Your Travel Plan

Day 1: Arrival in Mexico

You should arrive at the designated airport and proceed through customs and immigration.
Arrange transportation to your accommodation, either through the clinic's recommended services or your own arrangements.
Check into your hotel or recovery house and settle in.
Ensure you have all necessary documents, including your passport, medical records, and any pre-surgery test results.
Contact your clinic's patient coordinator to confirm your arrival and schedule for the next few days.

Day 2: Preoperative Consultations and Tests

Attend a preoperative consultation with your surgeon. Discuss your breast augmentation goals, expectations, and any questions you might have.
Undergo preoperative tests, which may include blood tests, EKG, and a cardiologist evaluation if not already completed in your home country.
Discuss the type of implants to be used, such as round implants for enhanced cleavage or ergonomix implants for a more natural look. Brands like Nagor, Eurosilicone, Polytech, and Motiva may be available.
Review the surgical plan. This includes the inframammary fold approach and subglandular position for optimal results and minimal scarring.
Ensure you are fasting as required for any tests or procedures.

Day 3: Surgery Day

You need to arrive at the clinic or hospital at the scheduled time for your breast augmentation surgery.
The procedure typically lasts around 1.5 hours. Strict security guidelines are followed, such as covering the nipples and using an insertion sleeve to minimize contamination.
Spend one night in the hospital for observation and initial recovery.
Receive postoperative medications and instructions for wound care.
Ensure you have a supportive post-surgical bra, which is often included in your package.

Day 4: Postoperative Care and Discharge

Undergo a postoperative check-up to ensure there are no immediate complications.
Receive instructions on how to care for your incisions and manage any discomfort.
