Question:
Anybody gotten a TT in Mexico? How much?

I am interested in a tummy tuck, pretty certain insurance won't pay--Anyone had one in Mexico and how much was the whole thing? Thanks!    — Kimberley E. (posted on July 1, 2003)

I have not had one...in fact I am pre-op, but I have read several things regarding costs in the states and some are not all that bad. I have heard that the pain is pretty severe, so I wouldn't want to go to Mexico for it. I think in the states self-pay is between $2000-$5000, depending on what is done in the procedure.

I have been researching this as well. I haven't had one but I've been looking into going to Mexico when I am ready. I had Open RNY in Mexico and it was a very good experience. Here are a couple of websites I've found with prices. They are across the California border into Mexico and pretty easy to get to. I'd love to hear from anyone with information. Thanks and Good Luck! http://www.genesisclinic.com/genesisclinicframe.htm http://www.gardel-plastic-surgery.com/prices.htm

Yes - I paid $5000. Try plasticsurgeryjourneys.com It is a support group for patients of plastic surgeons in Mexico. Good Luck
