I felt genuinely cared for by everyone in Dr. Ricardo Vega's practice from beginning to end. The procedure and my recovery have been outstanding, and I have nothing but praise for Dr. Vega and his entire staff. Their professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail made all the difference.

Dr. Vega is a true artist! I am so very happy with the results of my deep plane face lift. I had been considering a face lift for a few years and had consulted two doctors in the U.S. then I had lunch with a friend who had surgery with doctor Vega a few months earlier. Her results were so amazing I knew I wanted to consult Dr. Vega. I thought if I like this doctor I’m signing up! At our consult Dr. Vega took meticulous care to explain to me the procedure in great detail. I was
Everyone who works for/with Dr. Vega went above and beyond to make my experience easy and memorable. I could not be happier with my results, as well as the pre/post op care. I went in for breast implants and Dr. Vega recommended a lift as well which I agreed with. He acknowledged what my desires were regarding size and shape and I am so happy with the results so far, only two days post-op. I can’t wait to see the finished result in a few months and I look forward to returning

Amazing Experience with Dr Ricardo Vega

I had two consecutive pregnancies in my late thirties and after that my stomach decided he enjoyed being pregnant and decided to keep the pregnancy shape. I couldn't slim down neither with diet no with excercise. And I was getting sick of wearing baggy clothing. So I decided to do this popular procedure called tummy tuck. I also did 360 lipo and chin lipo. USA surgeries are too expensive so I decided to go to Mexico. When I started researching the doctors - there were a lot of

I genuinely had a truly wonderful experience with Dr. Vega. It’s no surprise that he is an internationally renowned surgeon. His reputation is well-earned. From the moment I met him, I felt at ease. He is kind, gentle, and incredibly knowledgeable, with over 20 years of experience helping his patients achieve their dreams. The consultation was conducted with the utmost professionalism. Dr. Vega took the time to thoroughly explain everything, sharing his extensive experience
My cousin had surgery with Dr. Vega and I was so pleased that I was encouraged to go for a consultation, they gave me a quick appointment and in my consultation they gave me the information I needed and I liked that Dr Vega always put my health first. The day of my surgery everything went perfect. Just a small comment on my post op night the nurse on duty was very nice but when I asked him if he would help me with my boppy pillow he replied that he was not familiar with it which

Matter of fact, I'm already planning my next procedure because I am

Breast Augmentation w/ Nipple Lift
I had semi tuberous breasts. They have made me embarassed and ashamed since I was a teenager. I'm 31yrs old now and finally was able to go through with surgery to have nicely shaped breasts. I researched a lot and found Dr. Ricardo Vega. He is in Tijuana, BC, Mexico-- a city right across from mine. People are scared of going to Tijuana for medical or cosmetic procedures but they should not be. If you research and are well informed you can find a plethora of world class doctors.
