I saw Dr. Munoz in April 2022, I'm now two years post-op, and my results are fantastic, very natural, but snatched. My interaction with him was safe, clean, and enjoyable. He would always check in on me during my recovery, singing to me, dancing to cheer me up, and motivating me to get out of bed and out of my head during the recovery process, which may be scary, but trust the process of Dr. Munoz because he knows what he's doing! He gave me more vitamins to meet my nutritional requirements. He tests your individual body and ensures that the procedures and precautions are followed when working with your body. I recommend him to anyone looking to snatch their body.
I had the best experience in regards to having a plastic surgery with Dr Arturo Munoz Meza. Very thankful, extremely satisfied. He took the time to explain in detail the procedure and he delivered. Amazing job! He changed my life forever! Definitely recommend
Dr Arturo Munoz was very kind and professional. Overall was very reassuring and went over expectations and answered every question I had about the procedure and recovery. I would highly recommend him.
He is an amazing surgeon did an excellent job on my facelift! I was so scared going in took me a good year to pull the trigger but let me tell you he delivered I left the hospital with out a single bruise. I can’t wait to see my final results in a couple of months!
I reviewed many Dr.s that specialize in the type of surgery that I wanted. After reading reviews and speaking to actual patients through FB messenger I contacted Dr. Munos Meza’s office,Consuelo would answer all my questions and made me feel at ease. Dr. Munos Meza had me at hello, he explained in detail what his vision was to enhance my body& sat with me and my husband to explain the procedure and what to expect. Dr is very open and honest with his education, mentors & his confidence in his abilities. I literally cried during his visit after surgery, I was so happy with the first 24 hours that words couldn’t describe how happy I felt. Consuelo & Patti were right there with me and visited me on Saturday & Sunday to check up on me and make sure things ran smoothly. I had surgery on a Friday morning , hotel on Saturday afternoon was able to walk and had more soreness than pain. I wish I could’ve done this sooner but I’m so happy I did it now. It was my time and Dr Munoz Meza and his Angels Consuelo & Patti took absolute great care of me.
I am more than happy about my neck lift Dr. Arturo Munoz performed! His confidence and staff made me feel at ease. The entire experience was organized, professional, seamless and comforting! The after care was incredible, as my husband and I were put up in a beautiful hotel room equipped with a hospital bed for optimal healing. He would stop by daily to check on me and make sure I was ready to travel back to Colorado. Dr. Arturo Munoz is a top notch, truly talented, perfectionist who wants to make people feel good about themselves! I am thrilled with the results!
(5) five stars out of (5) five stars From: Grateful Patient I do not use social media, nor post any comments online nor make reviews. Although this time, I felt to make an exception in this case because I want everyone know that Dr. Arturo Muñoz Mesa is a Good Medical Doctor, Board certified in plastic surgery and enjoys doing rhinoplasty and other procedures as well; is passionate about his specialization and most importantly treats his surgeries as well as a masterpiece of art. I was fortunate to find plastic surgeon Dr. Arturo Muñoz Mesa because really cares about doing quality excellent work with the highest standards as a plastic surgeon and within the industry of plastic surgeons’ profession. After meeting Dr. Arturo Muñoz Mesa in person, I was received with a pleasant demeanor, professional, warm hearted, charismatic, and exceeded every single expectation. As I and other patients also did a reflection post-surgery as this one, on their review on their own experience in sharing with others as I am sharing mine with you. I have realized it was good that I did my homework because it was best smart decision. By selecting Dr. Arturo Muñoz Mesa as my Plastic Surgeon. I liked that he introduced himself before discussing about my case. Talks about background, education, experience, and realistic natural results that can be achieved, as well a reminder for both to understand; that as a surgeon will do his part, as the patient must also do it part by following instruction on how to properly care after post operation surgery to have a successful recovery result. Then afterward asks if you have any question for him, that he be delighted to answer. Then will go in detail about your case and what results one is looking that will make as patient happy and as well for the surgeon to achieve desirable results the patient is looking for. Dr. Arturo Muñoz Mesa has years of experience destined in continuing making his patients feel extremely comfortable, happy, and grateful with a consistent successful track of surgery results.

I input my review in the webpage https://www.realself.com I was touched by the pride Dr. Muñoz takes in his training, mentors, general surgery background and plastic surgery specialty. He's been helping people and continually perfecting his craft for decades! He cuts through the "fancy marketing" terms of all these procedures being advertised for actual evidence-based procedures that are safe, evidence-based, natural looking and long lasting. Just because something is well advertised doesn't mean it works in the long run or is good for me. Machines are just tools, like paint is to an artist. Doc talks in "human language" leaving out academic/medical terms, unless I asked. Dr. Muñoz spent hours talking to me, making me comfortable and feel confident. Dr. Muñoz helped me have realistic expectations, explained the inflammatory process, effects of gravity on the body and recovery, importance of hydration, and most importantly, the need for patience. Dr. Muñoz did the next best thing and gave me 110% dedication. He does cares! Again, sharing my experience as patient will aid in reassuring you that you are in good hands. This is the plastic surgeon: Dr. Arturo Muñoz Mesa and place: Mexico Tijuana (TJ) you want to book appointment and feel extremely comfortable, happy, and grateful with a successful surgery result. I also want to express my gratitude to Dr. Arturo Muñoz Mesa and his strong team backing him up, Ms. Consuelo and Ms. Pati. As well to the surgery clinic team of doctors and nurses and staff. Have treated me as I was part of their family always making sure I was well taken care of, at all times, during my entire stay in Mexico. Everyone exceeded beyond my expectation, especially Dr. Arturo Muñoz with the surgery result with his magical pair of hands god gave him in creating the masterpiece art, reshaping of my nose and most importantly with the additional surgeries that I requested while I had other post operative surgeries, was not an impediment nor a challenge for Dr. Arturo Muñoz Mesa, since he is professional and responsive; mitigated the situation immediately and prescribed other medication to ensure I was well protected simultaneously for the multiple surgeries and from a post operation inside my mouth before commencing plastic surgery and post recovery.. Team Muñoz treated me with warm professionalism as well Ms. Consuelo and Ms. Pati always making sure I was up to date throughout the entire process from the beginning till the end. Thank You. My Background: I decided to get a tune up for health reasons and plastic surgery reshaping nose while doing so then to find out my respiratory operation system within my nose needed to be corrected as well apart from other selected procedures. I went to various greedy surgeon apart from the cost of living of the country in the U.S. it’s so high that it would have cost me an arm and leg. Plus, it would have been extremely financial burden if used up credit and would have got stress. At the end of the day its not all about the financial responsibility has an effect although it is more about finding the right plastic surgeon whom a patient is comfortable to make one better in every way, shape and manner for their patient health, happiness, and satisfaction. Research: For the same or even better plastic surgeons ‘for same procedure in a different country to my good research and selection was in Mexico, Tijuana with Dr. Arturo Muñoz Mesa a Good Medical Doctor. I was more interest in expertise and the dedication and artistic natural traits this doctor was born with; but most importantly had mastered rhinoplasty and had the credentials and testimony of other patients as well as I. That was consistent with everything good that was being said online from reliable sources and rated high five starts out of five starts. I had done my homework in California, since I live in San Diego CA near the border to Mexico Tijuana is about an hour to an hour and half. I started looking online for plastic surgeons making hours of research online, intense research and contacted several organizations with specific questions not addressed on their sites (ASPS, ISAPS and others). As I am well educated as other people here in the United States, I started to look for statistics, literature and qualifications on plastic surgery, surgeons, facilities globally, scholarly publications and more. I also had friends and family members in the U.S. in assisting me in my quest to find the best Good Medical Doctor and to get me more information. I then created a list of countries and criteria before making a shortlist of surgeons with whom I finally "met". Dr. Muñoz was in the top of the list, therefor leading plastic surgeon. My Priorities: I had many options and the resource to fly to those other countries for surgery and also to select which surgeon meet my criteria of credential education and so on. I chose Dr. Arturo Muñoz Mesa because I cared about most: safety, "artwork," long term results, recovery, and a surgeon who understands my personal journey and expectations. And best part of all of this was within driving distance across the border. As well receiving the best medical service I can receive as I did from Dr. Arturo Muñoz Mesa and Team Ms. Consuelo and Ms. Pati providing the best care and medical attention services, as I would have received if I were doing the same procedures in the U.S. As a Patient: Initially, on my consultation I was a little uncertain until Dr. Arturo Muñoz Mesa explained what will take place before and after surgery and while I was paying attention to everything Dr. Muñoz had to say and at the same time reflecting on my extensive research I had done, felt more relaxed and not stressed because I knew at that point it was consistent with everything. Every time I had any additional question Ms. Consuelo or Ms. Pati had the doctor answer my specific questions. Prepping for surgery: Los Angeles Hospital where Dr. Arturo Muñoz Mesa, office on the second building on 7th floor suite 703; the office tower adjacent to Hospital Angeles. Dr. Muñoz and team, I filled out paperwork of consent for surgery, make payment, take pictures from all angles, get pre injection, do pre-op lab, x-ray, and finally to the hotel I where I stayed for 4 nights at the Tijuana Grand Hotel, very nice classy hotel with restaurants, good size casino, bar, swimming pool, jacuzzi name it they had it all, although since I was recovering I ended being in my room for those 4 days and in and out to surgery and on fourth day back to the office to take sutures off. Ms. Consuelo and Ms. Pati helped me get all checked in on the 11th floor where the medical booking designated desk for medical services rooms checking was at. Then was given access key to my room and the nurses made sure I had everything I needed in my room to be comfortable from meds and also showed me how to make food order from room. And from the window showed me the nearest location to the stores and where were the closest pharmacies’ if need to get more gauze, hydration drinks etc. Surgery Day: got picked up by MS. Consuelo from the hotel and went to the other surgery clinic location. The day started with more tests, meetings with the surgeon, anesthesiologist, and many others from the medical team. Fill out more documents Consuelo was with me the entire time. Even though everyone made me feel comfortable and took a personal interest in me to ensure everything was going well, I felt a lot better with Consuelo around. She left no stone unturned. Once they were ready to start getting prep for surgery changed over to surgery garment, nurse set IV hydration connection to arm. Then moved to the operating room where Dr. Arturo Muñoz Mesa was ready and other doctor and nurses connected monitoring pads and anesthesiologist connected device and said count to 3 and then I was already asleep ready for surgery. Once woken up after surgery was all completed, doctors made sure to have me another day at the surgery clinic recovery room for observation overnight, they ensured strict safety protocols. The next day Ms. Consuelo picked me up and took me to the pharmacies to get nutrition liquids and hydration drinks, meds and then dropped me off at the hotel. Post op: Dr. Muñoz has golden hands. To date, I never felt any pain from the surgery and didn't take pain killers. I stayed in the hotel with comfortable room service recovering. 1145 am transportation was scheduled and I went to bellboys at the entrance of hotel and transportation arrived and took me to the LA hospital entrance and then I went to the adjacent bldg. where Dr. Arturo Muñoz Mesa office is at on the 4th day to remove sutures. Every detail was taken care throughout. I was given a prescription to go to the first floor at the pharmacy and then went back where I got picked up and the same transportation from hotel arrived and took me back to hotel and remained overnight and left the next day. Overall, I stayed in Tijuana for 4 nights all covered with the package deal for the surgery and by choice I stayed an additional night 5th and made the payment on the 11th floor on 4th day. Coming home: One the last day checked out by noon and went back to turn room key on the 11th floor and also got my parking ticket stamp at the checking counter of the main lobby of the hotel. Showed the stamp parking ticket at the parking booth as I exit and paid in pesos. I was given the opportunity to get special medical lane pass from Ms. Pati, although I decide I would just go through the regular lane back at border to San Diego CA. Recovery: Nearly 1-week post-op, I’ve started to notice definition and my recovery has been going extremely well. Still following instruction on cleansing surgical areas except the nose instructed not to touch at all and sleeping slightly up to help the swelling go down and taking medication as prescribed. And bought more gauzes from local pharmacy in the U.S. Impressions: What else can I share with you? Safety, artwork, recovery, compassion, tailoring everything for my anatomy and psychology were all 110%. Given all that, I have every reason to believe the long-term results will be pleasing. Improvements: We know that nothing is perfect, so what would I improve. Communication Don't assume that gratuitous information will just appear, even if you think it is important (ie-the number of the driver who will pick you up). Their way is to be punctual and just appear, whether or not they called you first. Bottom line: They are 110% invested in your satisfaction everything worked out perfectly. My biggest complaint is that why we didn't meet years before this surgery if I knew what I know now. I would have done my surgery years ago and would have been satisfied as a patient as I am now. Final thoughts: This whole experience not only made me look better physically, but it also made me feel better about myself, most important I can breathe better. The experience impacted me deeply. My hope is to be even half as compassionate and patient as Dr. Muñoz and his Team, Ms. Consuelo and Ms. Patti. Being in Team Muñoz care is the best plastic surgery decision you can make. Trust experience. As I stated before, I do not use social media, nor post any comments online nor make reviews. Although this time, I felt to make an exception in this case because I want everyone know that Dr. Arturo Muñoz Mesa is a Good Medical Doctor, Board certified in plastic surgery and enjoys doing rhinoplasty and other procedures as well; is passionate about his specialization and most importantly treats his surgeries as well as a masterpiece of art. I was fortunate to find plastic surgeon Dr. Arturo Muñoz Mesa because really cares about doing quality excellent work with the highest standards as a plastic surgeon and exemplary manner within the industry of plastic surgeons’ profession. Keep leading from the front… Note: As I stated, I am satisfied as a patient with my results so far, I know it will take more time to see the final result and I am confident after the swelling and months of adjusting, it will show; and what best way to express my gratitude; I believe, the best way is by making sure others deciding in getting surgery with Dr. Arturo Muñoz Mesa in Mexico, Tijuana (“TJ”) to know through my experience as a patient, this was the best decision in my life.

I tell you they do care! to have a good presentation of your nose before you see it the mirror. Dr Arturo Muñoz Mesa and nurses were excited for me as well. By this point I am looking at my nose for the first time after surgery. I was being modest in my reaction at first. I was just looking at it from the front the view. I said...Doc! you did a Good Job! on my nose. Perfect! Thank you! Then Dr Arturo Muñoz passes me another mirror and says go ahead look at it. Look at It now with this handheld mirror and I see the side view of the result. By this time, I was incredible impressed by the change from before and after. Now without thinking how to respond; my natural immediate reaction was “Ahh dam looks good! Uh-oh! shITz”; Now I see it. I am very Happy! by now, words can’t describe the gratitude I have.

I had been looking at Gyno surgery for a while before I came up on a subreddit from 3 years ago which said good things about Dr Muñoz. I did my own research and booked my consultation through Consuelo who is the case manager/patient coordinator. The Doctor and his staff were really helpful in answering all my questions prior to surgery over whatsapp and email. I am 3 days into my surgery when I write this review. I finally looked at my chest 2 days after my surgery and couldn’t have asked for a better result. Surgery was painless, last 2 days I had minimal to no pain at all.I finally have a flat chest I have been wanting for years. I was a little hesitant before booking the surgery but everything exceeded my expectations. Dr Munõz and his staff are wonderful and really helpful. They definitely did help me ease my nerves. I would definitely recommend Dr Munõz for anyone looking for a Gyno surgery.
For years, since a child, I struggled with gynecomastia. Embarrasing. While going through puberty in my teens, physicians predicted that it would go away with time--sometime before entering adult hood. Never happened. Years later, I finally decided to get surgery. Asking around, I was referred to the plastic surgeon professional, Dr. Arturo Muñoz Mesa who, I was told, has experience in the field relating to gynecomastia. At first I was very nervous but I found Dr. Mesa to be very pleasant, kind, straightforward but most of all understanding of the social intricacies that someone with this problem could possibly endure. He guided me through the steps of the surgery and what to realistically expect after. His confidence, artistic vision and years of dedication to his craft left me feeling at ease. The office team, especially Consuelo Juarez, were extremely helpful and comforting as well. They were nice, and supportive through the entire process and I was very much pleased. Post surgery I was elated at the fact that I can now put this issue behind me. A bothersome predicament troubling me for so long that can now be put to rest. I am forever grateful. My only regret is that I didn't do this sooner. Also worth mentioning is that this same procedure would've cost 4-5 times the amount where I live in California. If there is anyone who suffers from gynecomastia I definitely recommend Dr Mesa!
Dr. Arturo Muñoz Mesa and his entire staff made my gynecomastia surgery such a great experience. Not being fluent in Spanish initially made this trip from Los Angeles, California to Tijuana, Mexico intimidating, however, Consuelo, Patty, and Shiyanne who are Dr. Munoz's staff, helped me every step along the way. Clear communication was present at all times. Dr. Arturo Muñoz Mesa was very personable, honest, and set clear expectations throughout the entire process. If you are developing excess fat in your chest, or have had life Long Gynecomastia like myself, consider Dr. Arturo Muñoz Meza, a leading plastic surgeon with decades of experience, to be the plastic surgery solution you always wanted!
No conozco su caso, pero entiendo su inquietud. Sin embargo, en terminos generales, el resultado se ve bastante standard, al menos, en las fotos. Normalmente, todos somos asimetricos de csi todas las partes del cuerpo y creo que deberia darle el beneficio de la duda y no desesperarse, ya que tiene algo muy valioso en el resultado y es que se ve bastante NATURAL, y eso, creame que tiene su merito.Saludos.
El dorso nasal y la punta nasal a menudo se trabajan por accesos distintos(heridas quirurgicas.El material ideal para el aumento del dorso nasal es el cartilago septal. si por alguna razon, Ud. no dispone de este, se puede considerar cartilago condrocostal como segunda opcion, segun sus necesidades.
Lo que si va a necesitar es dejar descansar a los tejidos, ya que han sido trabajados "ineficazmente", relativamente pronto. descarte el uso de esteroides, eso solo le hara la piel del area mas delgada y fragil y dificulatara el acceso al dorso para remover la jiba residual cercana al radix que quedo(no es que le haya "salido", simplemente mientras estaba hinchada, no se notaba). Lo mismo se puede decir respecto a la punta nasal, se puede revisar, SI, mas programelo con alguien que realmente sepa del manejo de punta bulbosa y de preferencia con abordaje endonasal(sin cicatriz visible en la columela).
Por lo general, no solo en Rinoplastia, sino en cualquier procedimiento de cirugia plastica, el proceso de cicatrizacion conlleva varias fases que generalmente requieren al menos doce meses para llegar a la maduracion, que es la etapa donde se observa el resultado definitivo. Manetenr una buena comunicacion con su cirujano, es la mejor manera de sobrellevar este periodo, ya que es el o ella quien sabe acerca de su condicion preoperatoria, el analisis y discusion del plan quirurgico con usted, los cuidados postoperatorios a seguir, asi como los cambios esperados(modificaciones) posibles y los no posibles o no esperados. La nariz es un organo muy noble, le sugiero sea paciente, por favor ya que por ahora no se debe hacer nada, excepto dejar que evolucione y sane completamente. Un saludo cordial.
Dejame a mi, los por menores del plan quirurgico, lo unico que interesa es optimizar tu belleza natural de manera tal que seas tu la modelo a seguir y no una mala copia de otra persona. Procedimientos seguros, de aspecto natural y de resultados a largo plazo, son nuestra base desde hace mas de 25 años en el campo de la Cirugia Plastica Estetica. La Rinoplastia, es el unico procedimiento que hacemos con anestesia general. es totalmente indoloro.
