Plastic Surgery in Mexico:
UNDOUBTEDLY one of the best options on an International Level.

The principal objective of this site is to deliver true and quality information to our visitors about the advantages of having a plastic surgery in Mexico.

But above all, we want to provide practical information to aid in the decision-making process when you’re ready to choose the country, city, hospital and surgeon, no matter what kind of surgery.

In this particular case, I’m going to give you a bonus about the incomparable advantages you would have if you elect to have your plastic surgery in Mexico.

To accomplish this, I decided to present you with another point of view and interview Dr. Enrique Sánchez Perez Verdía, a Mexican plastic surgeon with an outstanding career in the field of plastic surgery in Mexico. (His professional background can be found at the end of this section.)

Dr. Sánchez kindly agreed to talk to us about the benefits that Mexico, and Guadalajara in particular, offers as an unbeatable destination for plastic surgery with affordable prices and world-class results.

When asked about the place Mexico occupies in the global plastic surgery market, Dr. Sánchez told us that outside of the United States and Western Europe, Mexico and Brazil are the two countries with the largest number of professionals that have the necessary training and experience to produce satisfactory results with the least risk possible.

Dr. Sanchez also mentioned that not only is the quality of plastic surgery with aesthetic aims or cosmetic surgery outstanding, but that Mexico is a leader in the field of reconstructive plastic surgery. Simply put, Mexican plastic surgeons are at the same level as their counterparts in the United States and the most advanced European countries.

When it comes to plastic surgery, the results are literally in the hands of the surgeon, which is why it’s so important to choose a professional. Although ultra-advanced technological equipment is not required, Dr. Sanchez says the selection of the hospital can’t be taken lightly because, in the event of a complication, you will want to be at a facility that offers all the necessary facilities and services.

Next we asked about the specific advantages of having plastic surgery in Mexico. According to Dr. Sanchez, the country has hospitals that are more than adequate for this kind of surgery. Moreover, the fees that the surgeons charge and the costs of hospitalization are also very competitive compared to what’s found in the United States. In other words, the cost of plastic surgery in Mexico is unbeatable.

But don’t forget to investigate the surgeon’s background to avoid possible fraud by doctors that aren’t specialized or lack the necessary experience, which can happen not only in Mexico, but any other place around the world.

Dr. Sanchez, a resident surgeon in Guadalajara, told us that the city is home to the Reconstructive Surgery Institute of Jalisco, a one-of-its-kind academic institute for specialty studies in both aesthetic and reconstructive plastic surgery. The institute offers free services to the public because of its designation as a social assistance program. This, in turn, helps provide participants with a huge amount of experience because they receive instruction from surgeons who are handling several procedures a day.

According to Dr. Sánchez, there’s no doubt that the number of plastic surgeries a doctor has performed during his career is what accredits him as a renowned plastic surgeon, more so than his academic degree.

The firsthand information that Dr. Sánchez has given us confirms what we advocate on this site: that Mexico is one of the best choices on the world playing field for having plastic surgery.

And the reasons are clear: the city of Guadalajara has hospitals with first-world facilities, is home to the top Mexican plastic surgeons, and offers all the tourist services necessary for a comfortable and safe stay.

Plastic Surgery in Mexico IMPORTANT information:

It’s essential to clarify that when we talk about plastic surgeons in Mexico, we’re referring to those who have full academic backing and experience, and who are recognized by the leading Mexican hospitals as top-level professionals with more than enough training to produce favorable results and create a safe environment for their patients.

I think that the field of plastic surgery in Mexico and the rest of the world, is a sensitive topic, so I recommend that you be very careful when picking a plastic surgeon.

In other words, I don’t recommend selecting a surgeon and hospital based only on prices and other conditions that may seem appealing, but that in reality are risky.

For example, just because a surgeon offers an “attractive” clinic setting on the beach shore doesn’t mean anything. In fact, I think it’s worth saying in no uncertain terms that fraudsters abound in aesthetic surgery around the world, and Mexico is no exception.

If you do decide to have plastic surgery, Mexico is a smart choice. Just remember to pick the leading hospitals, and the surgeons recognized by those hospitals, to avoid putting your health and money at risk.
