As increasing numbers of Americans travel to Mexico for affordable cosmetic surgery, clinics of all sizes have proliferated along the U.S.-Mexico border. The appeal is straightforward: cost. Mexican procedures cost one-third to one-half of U.S. prices. Five surgeries can be completed for just $14,000—nearly half the cost of equivalent treatments in the United States.
Jose is one of many Mexican doctors seeking fortune in border cities. Holding both Mexican and international medical licenses, he reports performing just 50 surgeries in 1999, but by 2009, his caseload had increased tenfold.
Miriam Martinez, a 32-year-old Texas news anchor, saw her figure change after having two children.Seeking a flawless on-screen appearance, Miriam decided to undergo surgery to restore her "youthful beauty."
After comparing options, Miriam concluded that U.S. surgery costs were exorbitant, while cosmetic procedures in Mexico offered better value.
To select a reliable surgeon, Miriam diligently shopped around.Through a referral, Miriam traveled to Reynosa, a Mexican border city, to consult Dr. Raúl López. Following recommendations from Mexican medical institutions, she verified Raúl's credentials, reviewed his business license, and spoke with previous patients.
What ultimately sealed her decision was the doctor's skill. "Even the wives of American doctors come to Raúl for surgery," she remarked.After the surgery, people look absolutely stunning."
At Dr. López's clinic, Miriam underwent breast augmentation, tummy tuck, buttock augmentation, lip augmentation, and rhinoplasty—all successful procedures. Her experience underscores that cosmetic surgery must be performed by professional doctors in accredited hospitals; seeking cheap options inevitably leads to disappointment and deception.
