Turn back the effects of time and discover a fresh, younger-looking you with affordable wrinkle treatments in Mexicali. At Medical Departures, we specialize in helping you find a suitable treatment at quality-checked clinics.

Depending on your needs, an array of options is available to ease the look of aging, including cosmetic surgery, Botox®, and skin resurfacing. 

Over time, most of us will begin to notice the presence of fine lines and sagging skin. This is usually the result of a slowing in the production of collagen, which allows our skin to lose its natural elasticity. Numerous other factors can also contribute to the look of aging, including exposure to the sun, genetics, and smoking. Fortunately, wrinkle treatments are available to help ease the look of aging.

Practitioners in Mexicali offer an extensive selection of wrinkle treatments, including both cosmetic surgery as well as non-surgical options. The decision of which type of treatment is best for you will depend on a number of factors, including your goals and the extent of your needs.

Treatments available in Mexicali are summarized below:

Non-Surgical Wrinkle Treatments

The most common types of non-invasive wrinkle treatments include what are known as injectables. These treatments offer the benefit of being performed on an outpatient basis in just a matter of minutes. Botox® is one of the most popular such treatments. By freezing the muscles located under a wrinkle, Botox helps to erase fine lines and give you a refreshed look.

You might also wish to consider dermal fillers, such as Restylane®, to plump your skin and fill in wrinkles. In some cases, skin resurfacing is also used in conjunction with wrinkle treatments to improve the texture of the skin.

Common skin resurfacing treatments include dermal rolling, dermabrasion, and chemical peels.

Surgical Options to Treat Wrinkles

Depending on your needs, you might also wish to consider surgical procedures to treat the look of fine lines. Among the most popular options include:

• Eye bag removal
• Eyebrow lifts
• Facelifts (full or partial)
• Neck lifts
• Facial liposuction

As well as being easy to reach for North Americans just over the US-Mexico border, traveling to Mexicali also presents the opportunity to take advantage of lower pricing and the ability to enjoy a getaway at the same time.

In the process of choosing a practitioner to handle your wrinkle treatments, it's important to do your homework and ensure you choose a clinic and practitioner with a good reputation. This includes choosing facilities that are committed to following international guidelines.

At Medical Departures, we take the time to thoroughly research facilities prior to including them on our list. Our research process includes:

• Confirming qualifications and professional memberships or affiliations with professional bodies, such as the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons.
• Performing criminal and legal record checks
• Visiting each clinic in person
• Conducting interviews with real patients who have actually used the clinic

Only once we are completely satisfied with a facility is it included on our list.

The length of time it takes to receive wrinkle treatments will depend on the precise procedure.

Many treatments, including skin resurfacing and injectables, can be completed in less than an hour. More advanced treatments, including surgical procedures, such as facelifts, can take several hours to complete and will require more extended recovery.

The cost of wrinkle treatments in Mexico can vary based on the specific treatment you are to receive.

For instance, the average cost of a full facelift in Mexico is about $5,500 (GBP £3,787, EUR €4,938, AUD $7,751) compared to an average of $18,000 (GBP £12,397, EUR €16,159, AUD $25,369 in the United States.

The average cost of a Botox injection is only about $250 (GBP £173, EUR €223, AUD $352) compared to $370 (GBP £256, EUR €330, AUD $522) in the United States.
