SURGERY OR NON-SURGICAL?💥

Not every facial concern comes from the same place. Skin quality, volume loss, tissue descent, muscle changes, weight loss, and genetics can all require different solutions.

The goal is not to choose the least invasive treatment — it’s to choose the treatment that actually matches the problem.

We’re not here to convince you to have surgery. A professional evaluation helps you understand what may realistically work for your anatomy and goals.

Consultation Fees:
Virtual: $1,800 MXN
In-office: $2,850 MXN

We don’t provide price lists. A formal evaluation is required to determine the final cost and expected recovery time.

Schedule your consultation to receive a personalized evaluation.

Sometimes the right recommendation is less surgery. Sometimes it’s more than you expected💥

Every surgical plan should be based on what is appropriate for your anatomy, goals and safety—not on doing the biggest operation possible.

Personalized planning, knowing when to say no, and building trust with your surgeon are essential parts of an ethical consultation.

A formal evaluation is required to determine the appropriate surgical plan, final cost and expected recovery.

Formal consultations:
• Virtual: $1,800 MXN
• In person: $2,850 MXN

Before paying for a consultation, we recommend requesting detailed information about the procedure, process and relevant starting price ranges.

Save this if you value honest medical advice.

The goal is to restore balance, not change your face‼️

Every case must be formally evaluated to determine the right combination of procedures, final cost and recovery plan.

NOT EVERY TREATMENT CAN LIFT LOOSE SKIN

Non-surgical treatments can be helpful for the right patient, especially when laxity is mild and expectations are realistic. But they cannot always deliver the same type of lifting or repositioning as surgery.

The most important question is not only:

“What can this treatment do for me?”

But also:

“What can’t it do — and am I the right candidate?”

A formal evaluation is necessary to determine which treatment or surgical approach is appropriate for your anatomy, goals and expectations.

**Formal consultations:**
• Virtual: $1,800 MXN
• In person: $2,850 MXN

Before paying for a consultation, we recommend requesting detailed information about the procedure, process and relevant starting price ranges.

Why an isolated neck lift may not be enough.

The face, jawline, and neck often change together. Treating only one area may not always create the most balanced, natural-looking result.

A personalized evaluation helps determine the right approach for your anatomy and goals.
