How to choose a plastic surgery clinic in Mexico

Check the license and accreditation. Ask for the certificates and check them with the body that issued them. JCI status can be looked up in JCI's directory.
Read the reviews yourself. Open the Google and Trustpilot pages linked above and read the recent and the negative reviews, not just the score.
Get the quote in writing. It should say who treats you, what is included, how long you stay and what happens if there is a complication.
Plan follow-up at home. The CDC advises arranging follow-up care in the U.S. and travel insurance that covers medical evacuation before you go.

Checking a clinic in Mexico: Hospitals in Mexico are licensed by COFEPRIS, the federal health regulator. Some surgical centers also hold U.S. accreditation from AAAASF (now QUAD A), and plastic surgeons are certified by CMCPER, which keeps a public directory.
