Breast Augmentation
What Is Breast Augmentation?
Breast augmentation uses silicone or saline implants to increase breast size, improve symmetry, or restore volume lost after weight loss or breastfeeding. Implants are placed either under the breast tissue (subglandular) or under the chest muscle (submuscular or dual-plane) through an incision under the breast, around the nipple, or in the armpit.
Implant selection — size, profile, shape, and material — is determined based on your existing breast tissue, chest width, skin envelope, and aesthetic goals. There is no universal "correct" implant — sizing is a collaborative decision made during consultation using your measurements and goal photos.
Breast augmentation in Tijuana, Mexico at Russald Medical Center provides access to experienced plastic surgeons and quality implants at 60–75% below US pricing. Implant options, sizing, and surgical approach are discussed in detail before any procedure is scheduled.

Frequently Asked Questions
Breast Augmentation in Tijuana — Common Questions
How much does breast augmentation cost in Tijuana, Mexico?
Breast augmentation at Russald Medical Center costs 60–75% less than US plastic surgery centers, where the procedure commonly runs $6,000–$12,000+. Pricing depends on implant type and surgical approach. Contact our team for a personalized quote.
Silicone or saline implants — which is better?
Silicone gel implants are more commonly used for their natural feel and appearance. Saline implants offer the advantage of size adjustability and require a smaller incision. Your surgeon will discuss the pros and cons of each option based on your anatomy and goals.
How long do breast implants last?
Modern breast implants are not considered lifetime devices. They may need replacement or revision after 10–20 years depending on the patient, implant type, and whether any complications arise. Regular follow-up is recommended.
Will I be able to breastfeed after breast augmentation?
Most women can breastfeed after breast augmentation, though this depends on the incision site, implant placement, and individual anatomy. This will be discussed in detail during your consultation.
Can breast augmentation be combined with a breast lift?
Yes. Augmentation with a simultaneous lift is a common combination for patients with both volume loss and ptosis (sagging). Your surgeon evaluates whether a combined approach is appropriate based on your breast tissue and skin envelope.
Is it safe to get breast augmentation in Tijuana, Mexico?
Breast augmentation safety depends on the surgical team and the facility, not the destination. At Russald Medical Center, breast augmentation is performed by board-certified plastic surgeons in an accredited surgical suite with anesthesiology on site. Tijuana sits about 20 minutes from the San Diego border, which keeps in-person follow-up accessible for U.S. patients. A pre-operative evaluation is required before any procedure is approved — candidacy and expected results are assessed individually, and, as with any surgery, the risks are reviewed with you beforehand. An English-speaking coordinator manages your case from first contact through post-operative follow-up.
