How Much Does Blepharoplasty (Eyelid correction) Cost in Mexico?

Blepharoplasty in Mexico typically costs from $1,800 to $2,500 depending on the surgical technique, clinic location, and anesthesia type. Patients save around 37% compared to the US, where the average price is $3,500. Packages often include surgeon fees, local or general anesthesia, pre-operative tests, and follow-up care in major hubs like Tijuana and Cancun.

  • Upper and Lower Eyelid Surgery: $2,000 to $4,500 for a complete facial rejuvenation.
  • Upper Eyelid Surgery: $1,300 to $2,300 to correct drooping or heavy lids.
  • Lower Eyelid Blepharoplasty: $1,500 to $2,100 for removing under-eye bags or puffiness.
  • Double Eyelid Operation: from $1,800 primarily for creating a visible eyelid crease.
  • Technique premium: Advanced methods like ultrasonic blepharoplasty or deep plane approaches may add 20-30%.

Bookimed Expert Insight: Choosing border cities like Tijuana or Mexicali reduces travel overhead for US patients. Hospitals like Alice Beauty Clinic are located steps from the border. However, Guadalajara clinics like Marroquín & Sandoval offer specialized facial aesthetic focus. Mexico City institutes often feature award-winning surgeons like Dr. Jose Cortes. Patients should prioritize clinics with AMCPER or ISAPS accreditation to ensure high-tier safety standards.

Key Benefits
Blepharoplasty in Mexico is a popular and cost-effective option for those seeking eyelid correction, with costs ranging from $4,200 to $4,500. This offers significant savings compared to the United States, where prices can exceed $7,000, potentially saving you up to 40%. Mexico, especially cities like Tijuana and Cancun, attracts patients for cosmetic procedures due to its proximity and affordability. Experienced surgeons utilize advanced techniques like laser blepharoplasty and adhere to international standards such as JCI, ensuring high-quality care and safety. It's important to research and choose reputable clinics for optimal results.

Blepharoplasty (Eyelid correction) in Mexico: Your Travel Plan

Day 1: Arrival in Mexico
  • You should arrive at the airport in Mexico in the morning or early afternoon. This allows time for preoperative assessments.

  • Contact your patient coordinator, like Elsa López or Pillie, to confirm the schedule for the following day.
Day 2: Preoperative Assessments

  • Undergo a cardiological evaluation. This is crucial for assessing your fitness for surgery.
  • Meet with your surgeon, such as Dr. Rodrigo Vela or Dr. Deborah Tiznado, for a final consultation. Discuss the surgical plan, including upper eyelid resection and fat grafting for the lower eyelids if necessary.

Day 4: Initial Recovery
  • If not done the previous day, discharge from the clinic and return to your accommodation.
  • Begin post-operative care. This includes taking prescribed medications such as antibiotics and analgesics.
  • Rest and avoid strenuous activities. Keep your head elevated to reduce swelling.
  • Wear sunglasses to protect your eyes from bright light and potential irritants.

  • Receive post-surgical therapies, such as ultrasound or light therapy, if included in your package.
  • Continue to follow all post-operative care guidelines. Avoid makeup and any activities that may strain the eyes.
  • Maintain good hygiene around the surgical site to prevent infection.
  • Stay in touch with your patient coordinator for any ongoing support or questions.
Day 7: Stitches Removal and Final Check-up
  • Visit the clinic for the removal of stitches, typically done on the fifth day post-surgery.
  • Have a final check-up with your surgeon to assess healing and address any concerns you may have.
  • Receive advice on long-term care and any lifestyle adjustments needed for optimal results.
  • Prepare for departure by confirming transportation arrangements back to the airport.
  • Ensure you have all necessary documentation and contact information for follow-up care once you return home.
Day 8: Departure from Mexico
  • You need to check out of your hotel or recovery house.
  • Meet with the clinic's transportation service for your ride to the airport.
  • Ensure you have all personal belongings, medications, and post-operative care instructions with you.
  • Board your flight home. Keep in mind to avoid heavy lifting or bending during travel.

My experience with Dr. Ayala was quite unfortunate... He only spoke with me for about 10 minutes before the surgery and was very reluctant to answer questions afterward when I expressed dissatisfaction with the results of the neck and ear surgery. He mentioned that I could come back in a couple of months for corrections. When I returned, I decided to have an abdominal liposuction at the same time, and again there was a lack of follow-up regarding what I should do, wear, or any other post-operative instructions... Once more, one of my ears was not corrected and looked even worse than before. When I returned to have the sutures removed, I pointed this out, and he said it was normal, whereas I argued that my other ear looked fine, but this one did not. His only suggestion was to wait another couple of months and to return once more. At that point, I showed him my liposuction, which also looked poorly done, with a lot of fibrosis... He provided no advice other than recommending ultrasonic treatments. I looked online and found out I should be wearing compression garments and getting lymphatic drainage massages for the fluid buildup. When I visited a masseuse, she explained everything I needed to do, but it also cost me an additional thousand dollars. The entire experience was very disappointing, and now I have to see another surgeon to correct one of my ears, hopefully for the last time. It all started on January 3, and now it's already May, and I still haven’t resolved the problem! I really liked everyone I worked with, but I cannot, in good conscience, recommend them to anyone because I know they work at this clinic. I know others would be very disappointed as well!

If a friend asked me about this clinic for eyelid surgery, my answer would be an absolute no. I chose the traditional incision method for both my upper and lower lids, and the process has been concerning. My biggest challenge is dealing with dry eyes constantly, which is a persistent discomfort throughout the day. The incision lines are still quite red, but the aesthetic result is the most upsetting part. When I smile, you can clearly see how one side is different from the other. The lack of care from the surgeon and staff was palpable. I would not recommend this clinic to anyone.
The doctor did not need with me before the surgery to ask anything that I wanted. They did not do a good job on the surgery. I would not go back

The surgeon and staff were supportive throughout
My main concern going into this was how difficult the recovery would be, and it is definitely a process. The surgeon and staff were supportive throughout. For my extended tummy tuck, they created a new position for my belly button, and my abdomen feels very tight now, which is a good sign. While my stomach is already looking flatter, it's still swollen. The biggest challenge by far is just standing up straight. My advice is to make sure your home is prepared for you to heal and recover in comfort. It really helps. Also, measure yourself before purchasing any faja or compression gear, as the sizes differ so much across different sites.
My coordinator, Carlo, was amazing. He was prompt with answers to any questions. Surgeon, Dr Ayala was very personable and friendly. Staff at clinic was nurturing.
Maybe some post recovery snacks would have been nice.

I'm relieved to say my incisions are already well-hidden behind my ears
My biggest worry beforehand was about scarring and the recovery process. I'm relieved to say my incisions are already well-hidden behind my ears. The surgeon performed a deep plane lift, and the result so far is a jawline with noticeable new definition. My neck feels comfortably snug, not painfully tight. The hardest part of recovery has been sleeping elevated, which is to be expected but still challenging. Overall, the process with the clinic and staff was very straightforward. My one tip for others would be to prepare your kitchen in advance: get soft foods and melons, fresh fruits or steam-able vegetables like carrots. You'll want to take small bites at first.
The surgery had to be delayed because I was not feeling well right after arriving at my hotel. I came from outside Mexico for the procedure. We were able to do it a week later, and I stayed extra days for the reschedule. The staff is great and very personable. On the phone I spoke to and messaged the Doctor's personal assistant, and he speaks and writes great English. On the day of surgery, I stayed overnight following the procedure, and my night nurse had her phone set up so we could speak, translating questions, answers, and instructions back and forth. The dinner was beverages, yogurt, freshly made grilled chicken with steamed vegetables, the morning breakfast was eggs, yogurt with melon for breakfast. I stayed in a private room. I saw Dr. Aguilera right after I was prepped for surgery by the anesthesiologist and two nurses, who introduced themselves. Dr. Aguilera met me in the operating room, before I was given the final dose of sleeping medication, and was the first person I saw, still in the operating room, when emerging from anesthesia. The following day, the doctor checked my sutures and gave me some advice about what to do and not to do, the following day. He was satisfied with my recovery, so my head and neck were wrapped up for the Uber ride back to my hotel apartment. We had a stove, microwave, dishes and a full refrigerator in the room where we were staying. This is so convenient for gel packs, fresh foods and juices. I felt extremely comfortable traveling home on a three-hour flight, 10 days after the operation. Based on my experience, Plan fourteen days, giving yourselves an opportunity to settle in will make for a much more gratifying experience. Mexico City is quite easy to travel around, and since it is high altitude, the best way to adjust is to see the city or neighborhood you live in as you prepare for your procedure. I highly recommend Dr. Aguilera; I am healing well, and I am happy with the results.
The internet reception is not good on the sidewalk in front of the building, probably due to the other tall buildings. Just make sure you have made any arrangements for pick-up in the office where the wi-fi is.

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.

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 am 3 months post op and I have zero regrets
The experience I had with Dr Marroquin far exceed my expectations. I am an American living in Miami, FL. I inquired with surgeons locally before deciding to travel abroad for my deep plane face and neck lift with blepharoplasty. After extensive research I found Dr Marroquin, I read through all the patient testimonials I could find and looked at all his before and after photos. I reached out to him via Bookimed. At first I thought I was being scammed, the people at Bookimed did not speak very good english, I could tell I was communicating with a non native english or spanish speaker. The communications came in at weird hours of the day. After a few back and forth, I said I would not proceed any further without speaking with someone from Dr Marroquins office. That same day someone claiming to be Dr Marroquin contacted me on Whatsapp. I thought for sure it was a scam, so at first I ignored him. In Miami you would have to be dying in order for the surgeon to speak with you directly. I told him I was feeling uneasy and he suggested we set up a video call for later that day, I thought there is no way its going to be him on the phone, and sure enough it was him! He took his personal time on a Sunday to call me. We spoke for almost an hour, and at the end of that call I was 100% sure this was my doctor. He is so down to earth and approachable, he made me feel so at ease. I let him know the next day I wanted to proceed with the surgery, from that point on I only communicated with him. He helped me to schedule the surgery, my preop appointments and made recommendations for recovery houses. In less than a month I arrived in Guadalajara, he met with me the next day and we discussed the surgery in length. At that point I decided to add a lip lift to the procedure. I passed all my preop and had my surgery on August 26th. Dr Marroquin was amazing the day of surgery, he spoke to me in english (which he speaks very well), he made sure I understood every step of the process. Everything went very well, I spent the next 10 days in Mexico recovering at a recovery house. I spoke with Dr Marroquin every day while I was there. I had zero complications and flew home after 10 days to continue my recovery at home. I am 3 months post op and I have zero regrets. I speak with Dr Marroquin every few weeks and keep him updated on my progress with photos. If you are considering this surgery, I 100% recommend having a consultation with Dr Marroquin, he is an amazing doctor and human being.
I liked how personal the service was, I really got to know my doctor and felt 100% at ease with him.
I wish I would have waited for the recovery house I wanted to use to have availability. They were booked up so I decided to use another one that was not as highly rated. It was not a bad experience, but it could have been better.

I would recommend this clinic to anyone looking at coming to Tijuana for medical care ❤️
From the moment I started this process with Laura, everything was seamless. All my questions were answered quickly and thoroughly. Any apprehensions I had about seeking care in a different country were not ignored. As I had questions about my surgery, I was able to talk with my surgeon to clarify which surgery would be best for the outcome I hoped for. I flew into San Diego and was met by Laura (transportation)who kept in contact throughout my stay and was wonderful! The clinic staff were kind, welcoming and professional. I am horrible with names otherwise I would give individual shout outs to each of them!! Laura Rodriguez ensured that everything went smoothly throughout my stay and answered all my question, made sure I always felt safe. My anesthesiologist listened to my concerns about problems with prior general anesthesia and came up with a solution to meet my needs. I believe my initial recovery went so much better due to this. I can’t say enough wonderful things about my surgeon! He listened to what my hopes for the outcome of my surgery were and absolutely exceeded all of my hopes! Thank you Dr Marquez, you are truly an artist! The hotel we stayed at prior to my surgery was beautiful, and the recovery suite provided amazing care! I would recommend this clinic to anyone looking at coming to Tijuana for medical care ❤️

This doctor is AWESOME
My biggest concern going into this was the recovery, especially after combining all four procedures. And it is tough. The diastasis recti repair is still very tender, and my biggest mobility challenge is just getting out of bed. It’s a slow process. That said, I can already see an amazing difference in my waist, and my entire torso, which makes the discomfort feel purposeful. This doctor is AWESOME. The support from the surgeon and the entire team was excellent. My most practical advice for other moms is that consistent help is essential for childcare. You will not be able to manage it alone.
This doctor is EXCELLENT. He’s certified, he’s up to date on all treatments. He is judicious and skilled at not just the Sufi al techniques but the aesthetics of the craft. His personality is calm and kind and his staff is supportive. I have had two procedures with him over these past three months and plan to make him ‘my doctor.’ Love this clinic!
Honestly, not really anything except for maybe a clearer structure of post-op recovery therapies and a liaison service or someone to help schedule them efficiently.

My experience with the surgeon, staff, and clinic has been very positive
If a friend was considering this, I'd tell them my experience with the surgeon, staff, and clinic has been very positive. At this point in my recovery, everything is feeling about as expected. The clinic team has stayed in touch, and I really appreciated that there were no additional expenses on top of what I initially paid. That was a relief. My main piece of advice would be to prepare well for your consultation. I would suggest asking for more time with the doctor before surgery and to bring pictures of what you’d like done specifically to make sure you're aligned.
I was assisted from beginning to end! Great price with a great and safe experience.

Even with initial swelling, the contouring from my full abdominoplasty and liposuction on my flanks is already so much better than expected
The thing that surprised me most was seeing my new waistline so early in the healing process. Even with initial swelling, the contouring from my full abdominoplasty and liposuction on my flanks is already so much better than expected. Recovery has its challenges. For me, the hardest part is that the drains are annoying, but I know that's temporary and part of the journey. My new belly button is healing nicely, which was a relief. The entire team at the clinic was excellent, from the surgeon to the nursing staff. It’s been a solid process so far.
I had a great experience with Dr. Marroquin and staff.
I was not given correct information about the required duration of my stay after surgery. I was also told I needed to lose a significant amount of weight after I booked the surgery and paid the deposit. I had already arranged my flights and hotel and had to reschedule because there was no possible way to lose that amount of weight in the original time frame.

All the staff and doctors were skilled, helpful, and very kind; my experience has been very good. My main concern was finding the right surgeon, and I'm happy with my choice for a deep plane facelift. The procedure addressed my full face and neck, and so far, my recovery is progressing about as expected. The clinic has been supportive, providing a clear aftercare guide and being easy to reach. Just note that my medications were an additional expense of $4000 pesos. My best advice: check reviews.

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.
