Why should you pick Tijuana for your cosmetic surgery procedures?
1) Tijuana culture
Tijuana is a modern and dynamic city, but with much of its traditional Mexican culture still intact. In fact, Tijuana is a mecca for both American retirees who want warm weather, and Mexican nationals with a taste for American products. Tijuana's rich history begins with the first Spanish land grant in the late 18th century that called for the townsite to be built where there was an old settlement known as “El Pueblo de los Alisos.”
2) Tijuana Position
Tijuana is located in Baja California Mexico, it's the twelfth largest city in Mexico. Baja California is home to two major international airports, and San Diego is a short drive from Tijuana.
3) Medical services in Tijuana
Tijuana is one of the fastest-growing cities in Mexico. It’s also known for good medical services at affordable costs. There are several hospitals and clinics in Tijuana that offer a wide array of services, including treatment for brain and spine injuries, cancer treatments, skin treatments, dental services and more.
4) Communication
Don’t know a lick of Spanish? You don’t have to. Some locals are bi-lingual but most will understand your need for directions or a good meal. Going through a medical procedure when you don’t speak the language is stressful.

5) Price
How much does cosmetic surgery cost in Tijuana? If you have ever been curious about prices in Mexico this is the article for you. Curious minds want to know!

Let us look at some specific examples from top-class clinics in Tijuana.
Top of our list in Tijuana would be:
Advanced Health Medical Center
Cosmetic surgery services in Tijuana look no further than Advanced Health Medical Center. With a focus on providing the city’s best surgical and medical care, we serve everyone from local residents to those travelling from across Mexico and the globe.
Let us look at their costs for Breast surgeries.:
Breast augmentation surgery at Advanced Health Medical will cost you just $4,350 which includes 6 days of accommodation and travel costs (depending on your service provider) In Texas prices for breast augmentation run around $7000 just for the procedure. Watch the ancillary costs mount up!
Another popular surgery is Bariatric surgery for weight loss. This kind of surgery costs thousands of dollars north of the border but here in Tijuana, you can be looking at as little as $4000 with 5 nights hotel included.
Molding Clinic Tijuana
This is another great Tijuana clinic run by Dr Martin Martinez a physician with more than 20 years of experience in aesthetic medicine.
Dr Martínez has been a pioneer in the field of cosmetic surgery. He has performed more than 1000 cosmetic procedures ranging from breast augmentations to facelifts and liposculpture. His expertise has earned him memberships with several renowned organizations that include the Academia Mexicana de Cirugía Cosmética, the American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery and the American Society of Breast Surgeons.
The clinic is a state-of-the-art facility that consists of 2 consulting rooms, 2 operating rooms, 4 recovery chambers and a hyperbaric chamber. These facilities are used to enhance the recovery process to provide an excellent level of care.
Molding clinic offers all popular cosmetic surgeries. A tummy tuck, also called abdominoplasty, is a plastic surgery procedure that removes excess skin and fat and tightens the abdominal muscles. A facelift tightens the underlying tissue of the face. Other procedures include breast implants, buttock implants and eyelid repair.
What about the prices?
Well, you can expect to pay as little as $3500 for a breast augmentation and just a little bit more for a breast lift. You can also go the other direction and opt for breast reduction surgery at affordable prices. If you want a BBL (Brazilian Butt Lift) -and who doesn't? – you can get that fashionable procedure for around $4500 and you can tie that in with a nice 14-day vacation.
Another great bargain at the Molding Clinic is the rhinoplasty (nose job) which is only $2875. This is barely the cost of a couple of exorbitant temporary liquid nose sessions and it is permanent.
Oasis of Hope Hospital
