It really depends in the surgeon and where in Mx you have your procedure. The range is $4500 -$10k. Surgeon and location factor into the price. You can expect to pay more in Puerto Vallarta or Cancun. Surgeons who've been at it longer or use bigger hospitals often command a bigger price as well. I am only scratching the surface. There are so many contributing factors. I've learned so much in my research and from people here who're sharing their experiences... Amanda Rae Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
