I truly never thought I would get the body I’ve always wanted. For starters, walking into the office the day before my surgery to do my pre-op appointment, I was extremely nervous, but I was welcomed by his amazing staff, and I was already communicating with Karla, so finally meeting her, I already felt comfortable. My appointment went well. Dr. Nieto made me feel very comfortable and ready for my surgery the next day. The day of the surgery, everything went smoothly and as expected. The hospital staff was also amazing, not one bad experience. Post-surgery, I met with Maria Jose, who handled all my post-surgery appointments as well as my drains and massages, she answered all of my questions when I needed her. I definitely recommend Dr. Nieto and his staff, especially if you want an amazing cosmetic surgery experience.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

UPPER BLEPHAROPLASTY- Edit Feb 2026: I saw the doctor to remove a cyst when i went down again vacationing in Puerto Morelos. He also followed up on my blepharoplasty at the same time he measured and suggested we take a little more skin from the eyelids. He told me he would do.it for free. Of course I accepted. Also, a comment was made by another user that said they only take PayPal. This is untrue. I used my credit card at their machine. Fyi May 2025 This is the best plastic surgery clinic around! I flew all the way from Canada to have an upper blepharoplasty and brow lift done. I'm so happy I chose to go here. Dr. Gabriel took very good care of me and answered all of my questions before I made the choice to go. As a nurse, asepsis is important to me, as well as post procedure antibiotics. I did not have to ask for anything as he already prescribed antibiotics and pain control meds. He maintained a perfectly sterile field during the surgery. 11 days post op and I am so happy with my results! While at the clinic for the procedure and upon returning a week later for stitches removal, I met 2 different patients from the US. It was great to connect with others from outside MX that made the decision to have their work done in here. It's important to mention that Karla was my first connection at Riviera Institute. She was amazing and responded quickly to my requests. She sent quotes and set up a meeting with the doctor, scheduled my procedure, looked after getting me to and from the clinic on surgery day. She was great and I'm so thankful to have had her as my main contact. The clinic is located in Galenia hospital which is JCI accredited. I recommend this place to everyone! I will be back. Thank you Riviera Institute! p.s...It costs me less than half of what I was quoted at home!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am pleased to share my experience with Dr. Adrian Nieto and his team following my recent breast lift procedure. From the initial consultation through each stage of care, the level of professionalism, expertise, and attention to detail was exceptional. Dr. Adrian Nieto provided a comprehensive and clear explanation of the procedure, ensuring that I understood the process, expected outcomes, and recovery timeline. His calm and kind demeanor, clinical precision, and commitment to patient education instilled confidence and trust throughout the entire experience. The clinic staff demonstrated the same high standard of care. They were organized, courteous, and consistently attentive, creating an environment that felt both safe and supportive. Every interaction reflected a strong dedication to patient well‑being. My surgical results are natural, balanced, and aligned with the goals discussed during consultation. The outcome reflects Dr. Adrian Nieto's skill, aesthetic judgment, and meticulous approach. I highly recommend Dr. Adrian Nieto, Riviera Plastic Surgery Center and Galenia Hospital to individuals seeking high‑quality plastic surgery care. Their professionalism, expertise, and patient‑centered approach set an exemplary standard. D.Braun Procedure February 12, 2026Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The doctors and staff at Riviera Plastic Surgery Center are wonderful! Warm, welcoming, caring and knowledgeable. I felt very comfortable and valued from the first consultation. Dr. David is a very skilled surgeon and has terrific bedside manner! He is gentile and has a great sense of humor. One of the nurses, Ana and Maria Jose, are also very warm, gentile and kind. Certainly not last, darling Karla at the front desk. Her cheery disposition makes you feel right at home when you walk in. Thank you all so much for making my surgery experience in Cancún so comfortable!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Me realicé una cirugía estética con el Dr. Adrián N. y quedé encantada con los resultados que fueron visibles desde el 1er día, ahora han pasado 6 meses y los resultados son aún mejores, nunca tuve algún inconveniente o dolor. El trato que te da todo el personal es muy bueno, siempre están pendiente de ti, si tienes dudas o un tema que llegues a tener. En mis cuidado post-operatorios me cuido María José Pech, que fue una persona muy amable, en todo momento me explico los procedimientos y me trato muy bien. Sin duda alguna volvería a operarme con Plastic Surgery Rivera.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am incredibly grateful for the care I received from Dr. Adrian, Nurse Maria, and Karla. From start to finish, I felt supported, informed, and genuinely cared for. Surgery and recovery can be overwhelming, but this team made the entire experience feel safe, human, and well-supported. Dr. Adrian took the time to explain everything clearly, answered my questions thoughtfully, and made me feel confident in my decision. His expertise and attention to detail were evident throughout the process, and I am very happy with my results. There was also an additional procedure I asked about, and he was honest in telling me he did not feel it was necessary for me. I truly appreciated his integrity and that he did not try to upsell or push additional services—his honesty made me trust him even more. Nurse Maria was exceptional—kind, attentive, and reassuring during moments when I was uncomfortable or anxious. Her compassion and presence made a real difference in how supported I felt during recovery. Karla was an absolute lifeline. She was available to me at all hours—day and evening—and consistently checked in to make sure I was okay. Even after I returned to the States, she continued to follow up with me, which meant more than I can express. That level of ongoing care and thoughtfulness is rare and deeply appreciated. I will genuinely miss seeing them every other day—something I never expected to say about a surgical team. This group combines technical excellence with real compassion and integrity. I would wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Adrian, Nurse Maria, and Karla to anyone seeking skilled surgical care with true human support. Thank you all for taking such wonderful care of me during a vulnerable time.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Beyond any expectations I could have had. From the moment I made the connection with Rivera Plastic surgery center, I felt Heard supported and cared for. It started with the support I would receive with my concierge Karla, who was there to answer any questions or concerns I had regarding my upcoming surgery. The consensus that Dr Nieto and I had with my requests for my vision and what was safely obtainable made me feel secure and safe in his hands. Then there was the aftercare provided by Maria, she was the calm and compassion that I needed to begin my recovery journey. There were other lovely staff members that I had the privilege to meet when I was in the office, but the combination of my direct care team, Karla, Maria and Dr Nieto have given me exceeded any expectation I could have had. I would highly recommend Rivera Plastic Center to anyone looking for exceptional care!Load more

I live in the States and travel to Cancun for Dr Maldonado, he is a highly trained plastic surgeon that has always yielded amazing, yet natural looking, never over done results. The cost is less than half what would be spent here and the results are excellent. I will continue to visit Dr Maldonado as I see necessary in the future. With this doctor in your corner, aging gracefully is definitely achievable

My overall visit was above my expectations. Coming from Chicago IL, to another country to get surgery was a major concern, but it turned out to be the best choice of my life.
My Surgeon was Dr. Adrian Nieto, he has awesome bedside mannerism, he’s so passionate when it comes to your insecurities that you want fixed. I had a breast lift and I love my outcome and the price was reasonable. “Dr. Adrian team along with Dr. David understood the assignment and carried it out well”. I recommend Riviera Plastics Institute you will receive top tier quality and priority care.

Si quieres lo mejor, no busques más. Había querido un cambio de imagen de mamá durante muchos años y siempre dudé en seguir adelante y hacerlo. No solo por la ansiedad de la cirugía electiva sino también por los costos. Viniendo de los Estados Unidos, donde una cirugía como esta costaría fácilmente más de $ 30,000 o más. Había investigado mucho sobre médicos en Cancún y encontré al Dr. Adrián Nieto. Desde la primera visita al consultorio hasta la atención posoperatoria, no podría estar más impresionado. Quedé impresionado con la habilidad hospitalaria y quirúrgica y el desempeño de estos médicos. Los recomiendo mucho y no puedo decir lo suficiente sobre toda la experiencia. Si estás indeciso… no lo estés. No he sido tan feliz en más de 25 años y todo es gracias a este grupo de médicos y profesionales. ¡Asombroso!

I did my rhinoplasty with Dr. Nain . Dr.Nain and his team took amazing care of me with my stay at the hospital. Most of his staff spoke English so we were able to communicate effectively (as a patient coming from United States ) . Throughout the whole process. Dr. Nain made sure of for the optimal results I wanted as a patient during our consultation and really takes his time to make his patients feel comfortable and safe. He was very attentive for post op care and I couldn’t be more happier choosing him as my surgeon .
I came outside of the Country Just to see this surgeon and I highly recommend you as well seek him.
