1 August, 2025by Luis

Choosing Your Ideal Breast Surgery in Cancun

For many women, the shape, size, and position of their breasts play a significant role in their confidence and self-image. Whether you desire increased volume, a firmer contour, a more proportionate size, or reconstruction after a life-altering event like cancer, breast surgery in Cancun, Mexico, offers world-class solutions.

At Riviera Plastic Surgery Center, our board-certified plastic surgeons are experts in a full spectrum of breast procedures. We understand that each woman’s body and goals are unique. This comprehensive guide will help you understand the different types of breast surgeries available, when each might be the best option, and why choosing Cancun for your procedure offers unparalleled benefits.


Breast Surgery, Enhancing & Lifting: Restoring Youthful Contours and Volume

These procedures are designed for women seeking to improve the size, shape, and position of their breasts, often addressing issues like volume loss, sagging, or asymmetry.

1. Breast Implants (Augmentation Mammoplasty)

What it is: This is perhaps the most well-known breast surgery, involving the insertion of saline or silicone implants to increase breast volume and enhance overall shape. Ideal For: Women who desire larger, fuller breasts; those with naturally small breasts; or individuals who have experienced significant volume loss due to pregnancy, breastfeeding, or weight fluctuations. It primarily addresses size and some aspects of shape, but not significant sagging. Considerations: Implant type (saline vs. silicone), size, placement (over or under the muscle), and incision location will be discussed during your consultation. Cost in Cancun: At Riviera Plastic Surgery, Breast Augmentations with our top-tier surgeons range from $3,725 to $4,495, offering significant savings compared to US prices.

2. Breast Lift (Mastopexy)

What it is: A Mastopexy, or breast lift, is designed to correct sagging (ptosis) by removing excess skin and reshaping the breast tissue to create a higher, firmer, and more youthful breast contour. It does not typically add volume. Ideal For: Women whose breasts have lost their youthful shape and firmness due to aging, gravity, pregnancy, or weight loss. If you are happy with your breast size but wish for them to be more lifted and perkier, this is likely your best option. Considerations: Incision patterns vary depending on the degree of lift needed but are designed to be as inconspicuous as possible.

3. Breast Lift with Implants

What it is: This procedure combines the benefits of both a Breast Lift and Breast Implants. It addresses both sagging and lack of volume simultaneously. Ideal For: Women who have sagging breasts and desire increased volume or a fuller upper pole. This is a common choice for those who have experienced significant changes after pregnancy and breastfeeding, or major weight loss. Considerations: This is a more complex procedure than either a lift or implants alone, but it offers a comprehensive solution for combined concerns.


Reshaping & Reducing: Achieving Proportion and Comfort

These surgeries focus on reducing breast size, alleviating associated discomfort, or reconstructing the breast mound after mastectomy.

4. Breast Reduction (Reduction Mammoplasty)

What it is: A Breast Reduction surgically removes excess breast tissue, fat, and skin to reduce breast size and achieve a more proportionate and comfortable bust line. Ideal For: Women with overly large breasts that cause physical discomfort (neck pain, back pain, shoulder grooves from bra straps), skin irritation, or limit physical activity. It can also alleviate self-consciousness about breast size. Benefits: Beyond aesthetic improvement, this procedure can significantly improve quality of life by alleviating physical symptoms and enhancing comfort.

5. Breast Reconstruction (Often for Cancer Patients)

What it is: Breast Reconstruction is a highly specialized procedure performed to recreate the breast mound after a mastectomy (removal of the breast, often due to cancer) or to correct congenital breast defects. It can involve implants or the patient’s own tissue (flap reconstruction). Ideal For: Women who have undergone a mastectomy and wish to restore their body symmetry and confidence; or individuals born with breast abnormalities. Our Expertise: While a highly sensitive and complex area, our team at Riviera Plastic Surgery has the expertise to provide compassionate and effective reconstructive solutions, helping women regain a sense of wholeness after breast cancer. We understand the emotional journey involved and offer supportive care throughout.
