Rhinoplasty in Mexico - Worth the Risk?

It's always best to have your surgery performed by someone in your area, since you can then see them easily if a complication occurs. There's also less stress involved. I usually recommend patients stay at least 2 weeks after their surgery if they do come from out of town, then find a trusted PS in their area when they return to their town. You may want to reconsider having surgery until you can afford to have it done by someone you have more trust in.

Is it really worth saving $1000 to have surgery in an unknown place far from your home?  If you are traveling to have surgery by an expert that is one thing.  But to travel for surgery just to save some money seems like a bad idea.  

One thing most qualified surgeons will agree on about Rhinoplasty: It is a very technically challenging procedure and more challenging to consistently achieve excellent results. The truth is that you may have changes in the way your nose looks for several years after the procedure. If you have problems with your Rhinoplasty or with your result in Mexico, you will have no recourse but to have an American Surgeon do the revision.

 What if you have a problem? Who is going to see the nose for you? Are you going to pay another air fare to return there? These are only a few of the concerns. If it sounds too good to be true......

I would strongly recommend you save money until you are able to have surgery where you live.
As a revision rhinoplasty specialist, I have repaired several noses on patients who either lived in Mexico, or traveled there for surgery. Each time I have had to charge the patient approximately twice as much as it would cost you to have surgery in MN! In addition, I have seen some of the most difficult to fix deformities in these patients.
Again, if you have been able to save up cash, continue to do so until you can have your surgery done by someone in the US who will give you the care, attention, and postoperative attention that you deserve.
