AREAS OF EXPERTISE

Face and Neck Lifts

A Facelift is an Art and one of the most complex surgeries; requiring extensive training and skills. I have more than 14 years of experience in aesthetic facial and reconstructive surgery. I keep up to date with the latest trends, techniques, and surgical advances by attending hands-on workshops, meetings and conferences to expand and to perfect my skills set. Currently, I perform one of the most modern techniques in facial surgery, which is the Deep Plane Facelift, as well as a scarless neck lift. I use an innovative approach such as an Endoscopic Brow lift surgery (Endobrowlift) for the rejuvenation of the upper third of the face, wich its a minimal invasive surgical technique, offer to my patients a painless surgery, with minimal swelling, bruising and faster recovery (eforehead and eyebrows). With these facial surgical techniques and my many years of expertise, I can offer my patients the best and most modern treatment options resulting in natural looking and youthful end results.

Breast Surgery

Breast augmentation surgery, as well as breast lift and breast reduction, are highly requested and very common procedures throughout the world. With over 14 years of experience, I perform more than 100 breast surgeries a year. Unfortunately, not all patients are ideal candidates. I am diligent and meticulous, with my use of the appropriate protocols to select the best candidates. This is the first step to a successful surgery with minimal risks. I am a conservative surgeon, and I will always ensure that your surgical procedure will provide you with proportionate and natural looking results. An ideal result with a fast recovery (24-hour fast track recovery) is possible using the most innovative and current techniques.

Amazing Doctor, Fantastic Team!

I had a deep plane face, neck and temporal lift with Dr. Valdez 4 weeks ago. I researched for months before deciding on him and it was by far the best decision I could have made. On top of a world class surgeon I wanted a seamless experience where all details were taken care of. Dr. Valdez works with an amazing team of nurses who are in constant communication with you and make the entire experience as stress free as it possibly can be. Thank you Marlen, Jenni, Anna and the whole team! I’m 49 years old and had a ton of skin laxity due to weight loss (and age of course) I can barely believe my before and after pictures! Please do yourself a favor and make sure whatever surgeon you are going with has the experience and artistry that Dr. Valdez has. I have rosacea and wound up bleeding more than expected because of that. I’m so thankful that I had such an experienced and skilled surgeon who handled this beautifully. He came in my room at 11pm that night to check on me and make sure I was OK. He came back at 6 am to check on me again (seriously, when does the man sleep!) he returned 3 more times throughout the day to make sure I was OK. He was incredibly kind and concerned, just an amazing experience from a world class doctor. His anesthesiologist (I believe her name was Florencia Alvarez but don’t quote me on that) was quite possibly one of the loveliest women I have ever met. So warm and attentive and concerned, it was a splash of cold water on the face to come back to the US health care system after this experience! Cannot recommend enough!

Amazing Results - Amazing Experience!

My experience with Dr. Arturo Valdez in Cancun was nothing short of amazing. I had a deep plane face and neck lift along with an endoscopic forehead lift, and from start to finish the care and attention to detail were remarkable. Dr. Valdez and his entire team were incredibly caring and professional. The results are very natural — I still look like me, just younger and refreshed. The level of care I received is something I never would have experienced in Canada. My surgery included an overnight hospital stay with a private nurse, and the facility itself was absolutely beautiful. The pre-op process was extensive and thorough — again, far beyond what we typically receive at home. Dr. Valdez is truly a face artist, and I would highly recommend him to anyone considering any plastic surgery. I would not hesitate to return to him in the future.

Exceptional Hands. Professional with Corazón.

Finding an outstanding surgeon is rare. Finding one who combines medical excellence, genuine passion for his work, and true human warmth is even rarer. That is exactly why Dr. Pedro Arturo Valdés stands out. I have consulted surgeons in several cities — Medellín, Mexico City, Monterrey, and Guadalajara — and after that experience, my decision was simple and very clear: Dr. Valdés in Cancún was the right choice for me. His surgical expertise, attention to detail, and consistency in results have exceeded my expectations. Several members of my family and close friends have also chosen Dr. Valdés, and every experience has confirmed the same thing: excellent results and a level of care that feels genuinely personal. What truly sets Dr. Valdés apart is not only his technical skill, but the way he treats his patients. He is attentive, empathetic, and fully present. He listens, explains each step clearly, and makes the entire process feel calm and trustworthy — something that is not easy to find. Over time, he stops being “just a surgeon” and becomes someone you genuinely feel comfortable with — professional, caring, and deeply committed to his work. With gratitude and full confidence, I can say that Dr. Pedro Arturo Valdés is a surgeon I would wholeheartedly recommend. Gracias Mi buen Dr.

Amazing Doctor

It took me nearly six months of research to find the right doctor to trust with my face.I attended four in-person consultations and several Zoom appointments with surgeons across different parts of Mexico. I tend to be quite skeptical and careful when it comes to entrusting othersespecially with something as delicate as facial surgery. In my opinion, a facelift combined with upper and lower blepharoplasty and a brow lift is one of the most intricate procedures a surgeon can perform. After extensive research, I finally found the perfect doctor: Dr. Arturo Valdez. Dr. Valdez is not only an exceptionally talented and meticulous perfectionist in his work, but also a genuinely kind and compassionate human being. His warmth and empathy immediately put me at ease. From the very first consultation, I knew I was in the right hands. His entire team was outstandingprofessional, attentive, and supportive throughout the entire process. I was especially impressed by the level of post operative care. Dr. Valdez personally checked on me twice, and even the anesthesiologist visited during my 24 hour hospital stay to ensure I was recovering comfortably and safely. That level of attention and dedication truly exceeded my expectations. Thank you, Dr. Arturo, for your incredible work and care. I couldn’t be more grateful.

Stellar Performance

Such an excellent experience and the results are perfect! (FL, NL, Brow lift, fat transfer, lower bleph.) I'm two weeks post-op as I write this review and I only have one slight bruise. Why did I choose Dr. V? Because of his being double board certified, and his line of open-ended questions in which to discover what really 'bothered me' and what I wanted the outcome to be, and his explainations that set such good expectations. In addition, I would only accept a surgeon who is performing the surgery in a hospital that has achieved accreditation from The Joint Commission. TJC is the gold standard for medical facility standards in patient care, safety, cleanliness, etc. The hospital Dr. V uses is accredited by TJC as well as the Mexican and Canadian organizations of similar nature. You will find he has a wonderful group that supports him and us as his patients, everything went off without a hitch! :) He even provided me with a nurse to stay with me thru the first full evening/night following my surgery! p.s. I traveled from the US to Cancun on my own....yet I truly never felt alone! His team is VERY responsive should I have any need or question.

Very Happy with Dr. Valdez

Dr. Valdez performed a breast implant explant (removal) and a capsulectomy on me about 6 months ago and I am completely happy with the results. He and his team were excellent at communicating with me both pre and post op sometimes through video calls. While I was in Cancun (I decided to do this all by myself which they seemed a bit surprised), they were all so warm and helpful it made me feel very comfortable and safe. Even the anesthesiologist lady was so sweet and made me feel at ease. The staff at the Amerimed hospital were great and very professional too. I loved the soup they gave me.. I had no problem finishing it even though I was so tired from the operation! Every time I was with Dr. Valdez, he took my worries away and I felt comfortable and confident. I especially appreciated how he didn't rush to remove my drains post op and was more on the cautious side, when my fluid buildup stayed kind of high as I didn't want to risk getting on a plane for home with potential issues. He even left me with the removed silicone implants (I got them over 20 years ago!) and capsule tissue and told me I could keep them if I wanted. I did! It was nice to know what was inside of my body this whole time. My breasts are flatter now, but I am truly happy and very satisfied with the results and this whole experience Dr. Valdez and his lovely team.

I Had an Amazing Experience!

Dr.Valdez is an amazing surgeon . My whole experience with my surgery was great ! Med Bnb made my experience wonderful , they help you the whole way from booking the surgery to the follow ups when your back home . Always answering any questions or concerns , they are literally there by your side the whole time . From appointments to accommodations , getting groceries , anything you need while you’re there ! I have had major plastic surgery in my own country Canada and from both experiences I must say getting my surgery done in Mexico with Dr. Valdez was hands down the best decision I could have made . For anyone questioning going there for surgery I would highly recommend doing it . The whole process was easy and they are by your side the whole time and the after care they provide is amazing !

I Can’t Say Enough About This Positive Experience!

Dr Valdez is meticulous in his work. He explains not only what he is doing, but why. He communicates clearly and speaks genuinely. Despite my fears of surgery he sincerely made me feel at ease with his confidence and knowledge. My results are above and beyond. I made the best decision to rely on him and his team for my facelift.

Amazing Experience, I Could Not Be More Thrilled!

Wonderful experience with Dr Valdez, very caring, informative and great follow up. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone and have in fact done so. I would rate the entire office as organized, well thought out and very easy understand. Dr Valdez answered any questions that I or my spouse had in a way that we could easily understand them. If I ever need anything else, I would not hesitate to return!

Worth ItDeep Plane Facelift

My Refreshed Face

I had a deep plane neck and facelift, endoscopic brow lift, upper and lower blepharoplasty, lip lift and fat transfer with Dr. Valdez in October 2025. The entire process, from my video conference call to the surgery and post operative care far exceeded my expectations. I am 64 years old, and was unhappy with how my face and neck were aging. Every time I looked in the mirror, or saw photos of myself, I cringed. Dr. Valdez took his time analyzing my features, asked me what results I was hoping to achieve, and then recommended the above surgery. I felt very safe and taken care of. His entire team of office staff, nurses and anesthesiologist were incredibly kind and caring, not to mention true professionals. My procedures were split into 2 separate surgeries, one week apart. The hospital and the surgical suite was state of the art. I traveled from the United States to Cancun, and my recovery team, through My Medical Vacations, were wonderful. They made sure that every detail, from transportation to accommodations, was handled. Dr. Valdez and his team truly go above and beyond. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a renewed version of themselves. It's only been 3 months and I feel and look like I did 15 years ago. The results are very natural, my scars are hidden in my hairline and barely noticeable. I am beyond happy!
