Plastic Surgery Procedures

Brow Lift

As you age, your brows may begin to droop or sag and can appear as if there is excess upper eyelid skin. This can give a subtle upset look and it can create notorious creases in your eyes and forehead. A brow lift can reposition your eyebrows for a more alert, youthful look that reduces the appearance of lines and wrinkles. This procedure is frequently combined with upper or lower eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) or a facelift (rhytidectomy). People interested in obtaining a brow lift should be in good general health and have elastic skin in their eyes and forehead.

Eyelid Surgery

With age, the skin around your eyes might begin to sag a little. In due time, this sagginess creates wrinkles around your eyes and could give you a drowsy, tired look. Some women might even struggle applying eye shadows and make-up. An eyelid surgery can recede an excessive eyelid. Known as a blepharoplasty, this procedure may be performed on your upper lids, lower lids, or both. Eyelid surgery can tighten and lift loose and sagging skin to reduce the appearance of puffiness, bags under the eyes, and wrinkles

Facelift (rhytidectomy)

Many factors can contribute to the loss of a youthful appearance, they include genetics, age, environmental factors and stress. A facelift can restore and rejuvenate your appearance by tightening or improving sagging skin, deep expression lines, and wrinkles under eyes and between the nose and mouth, while firming cheeks, chin and jawline.

Nose Surgery (rhinoplasty)

Also known as a rhinoplasty, nose surgery can improve your facial proportions by changing the width or length of your nose. This procedure can also reshape the tip of the nose, smooth any bumps on the bridge, and reshape the nostrils. A rhinoplasty can provide you with a more balanced appearance.

A rhinoplasty can also bring medical benefits. It can correct imperfections resulting from accidents or trauma in your nose. It can also improve your breathing and reduce or resolve snoring when used to correct a deviated septum.

Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation typically uses breast implants to increase the size of the breasts or restore volume after weight loss or pregnancy. This procedure can improve body proportions and improve your self-image and confidence. Breast augmentation can be combined with a breast lift for superior results. Breast surgery candidates should be 18 or older, in overall good health, and should be non-smokers or willing to give up smoking before their procedure.

Breast Reduction

This procedure removes excess fat, glandular tissue, and skin to help make extremely large breasts more proportionate to the rest of your body. Breast reduction can relieve physical discomfort and improve symmetry. In many cases, a breast reduction can alleviate back pain and improve body posture. This procedure can be done on both women and men.

Breast Lift (mastopexy)

Pregnancy, breastfeeding, aging, and significant weight loss can cause breasts to sag or droop. A breast lift, or mastopexy, can remove excess skin and raise and reshape the breasts for a more youthful figure. This procedure is frequently combined with breast implants for added volume.

Abdominal Surgery (tummy tuck)

Also known as an abdominoplasty or tummy tuck, this procedure removes excess skin and fat to tighten and tone the abdominal area. Some procedures can reduce or eliminate the appearance of stretch marks from pregnancy or weight gain.

Liposuction

Liposuction removes excess deposits of fat to improve a patient’s body contours. This procedure may be performed on the thighs, hips, buttocks, abdomen, upper arms, and more. It is ideal for patients whose goal is for refined contours, not weight loss. Liposuction is frequently combined with a facelift or tummy tuck, depending on the patient’s needs and goals.

Butt Lift (gluteoplasty)

A butt lift,, or augmentation, increases the volume of the buttocks and improves the shape through the use of fat transfers or implants. This procedure may be combined with liposuction or another cosmetic procedure.

Post-bariatric Plastic Surgery

This is one of the most popular cosmetic procedures, specially at LIMARP. Through post-bariatric plastic surgery, your surgeon can remove excess skin following significant weight loss to improve your body’s shape and contours. A variety of different procedures can be used to treat multiple areas and may include: facelift, breast lift, arm lift, thigh lift, and more. Post-bariatric body contouring can enhance your appearance and accentuate your weight loss results. Our plastic surgery team has a very high satisfaction rate with our bariatric surgery patients.

Candidacy for Plastic Surgery

Candidates for plastic surgery should be 18 years old or older to be eligible for a surgical intervention. People interested in receiving any type of plastic surgery should be in good overall health to avoid any risks or complications during their procedure. Patients who would like to obtain plastic surgery should be non-smokers or should be willing to quit this habit before surgery. Smoking makes healing more difficult and could lead to infections or other complications that would prevent you from obtaining the best results out of your surgery.

To be eligible for cosmetic surgery, you need to have elastic and healthy skin. Not every type of skin is meant for cosmetic surgery and this is something that your surgeon should assess and evaluate beforehand.

There are some other factors to consider. If you are a woman interested in having a breast augmentation or a tummy tuck, it is better if you are not planning on getting pregnant or nursing to preserve the benefits and results of your procedure. For instance, mommy makeovers are ideal for women who are already done having children and would like to accomplish a more youthful appearance. Also, if you are currently experiencing big changes in your body, like weight loss or weight gain, it is better to wait for your body and weight to stabilize before considering plastic surgery.

The best kind of candidate for plastic surgery is the one that is properly informed about the procedure, its side effects and the medical instructions to follow before and after the surgery. Patients for cosmetic surgery should have very clear expectations about how the procedure can help them achieve their cosmetic goals. Talk to your surgeon about your expectations and motivations for having this surgery. He’ll guide you through everything you need to know to make the right choice.

If you’re interested in knowing if plastic surgery is the right choice for you, please call or message our clinic at Tijuana. We can arrange an initial consultation and start planning the best strategy for your cosmetic goals, together.

The plastic and cosmetic surgery industry in Tijuana is one of the biggest in the world. Tijuana is the go-to place when it comes to plastic surgery, as half a million people travel to Tijuana every year to receive some type of cosmetic procedure. The international medical tourism industry in Mexico gained at least 4.5 billion dollars on 2018 and it is expected to grow at least 10% in the next following years [1]. Most people travel to Mexico to receive medical services because of our low prices and high-quality care.
