Why choose Mexico for a Brazilian Butt Lift?

Mexico is a premiere destination for cosmetic surgery – especially for Americans and Canadians as it is so close. Having surgery is a scary prospect at any time, and some people feel more comfortable by traveling short, rather than long-haul. In fact, people in the southern United States can actually drive over the border, which makes it even more appealing to some.

It is not just Americans and Canadians who come to Mexico as medical tourists. It has long been a popular holiday destination and is beginning to get a good reputation for its medical facilities. So, medical travelers from across the world are now coming here, because as well as the high standards of patient care, the cost is considerably less than their home countries.Expertise is something that many international patients worry about - as well they should. However, in Mexico there are a great many surgeons who have undertaken training in the United States and are likely to be members of one of the US medical  specialty boards.

Cost is an important consideration for medical travelers, but it is not the only one. Patients also look for clinical expertise, quality of care and facilities and, of course, if they are making a vacation of it, the location.

Mexico is such a vast country, and there are excellent medical facilities situated not just in the capital, Mexico City, but throughout. From Cancun to Puerto Vallarta and Tijuana to Monterrey, there’s a destination to suit all tastes.

As far as the other considerations go, Medical Departures makes it easy to find quality-checked surgeons and facilities, so there is one less thing to worry about for our patients. Our background checks include a number of stages, from legal and criminal record checks, verification of qualifications, confirmation of professional memberships, clinic visits and collecting real patient testimonials. With these and high-definition clinic photos included in our clinic listings we give all patients all the information they need to make an informed decision that is right for them.

What can I expect to happen during the Brazilian Butt Lift Procedure?

The Brazilian Butt Lift procedure is a form of butt implant, but uses your own fat rather than synthetic implants, in a process called autologous fat transfer. This simply means that fat is extracted from one part of your body, and injected into another.

The donor site (or sites) where the fat is removed from can be the back, stomach or thighs and it is extracted by liposuction and purified before it can be injected into the buttocks. Special cannulas are used to inject the fat through various incisions made in inconspicuous areas (the scars of which will fade with time but are hidden underneath bikini bottoms).

Depending on how much fat is needed for the procedure, the Brazilian Butt Lift may take several hours.

What is the recovery time for the Brazilian Butt Implant Procedure?

Immediately after surgery, your butt will be dressed with bandages and possibly a tight compression garment, which helps to reduce swelling and aids the recovery process. You may have drainage tubes inserted into the site to draw fluid away.

For the first few days, you will feel uncomfortable, stiff and bruised, but you will be administered with pain medication to relieve this. You will find it more comfortable to lie on your stomach, rather than sitting, and this will be advisable as it will relieve pressure on your buttocks. When leaving the hospital, you will need pillows to sit on in the car, and you may have to use a pillow for a couple of months when you sit until you have healed and the swelling has died down.

You should be able to return to work in a few weeks, but vigorous exercise should be avoided entirely for 6 weeks. It may be up to 6 months before you have healed completely.

What is the cost of a Brazilian Butt Lift in Mexico compared to the United States and Canada?

The cost of a Brazilian Butt Lift in Mexico is around $4,000, compared to $8,000 in the United States.
