The cost of upper and lower eyelid surgery in Mexico typically ranges from $1,800 to $3,000. Prices depend on the clinic, the surgeon’s expertise, and whether both eyelids are treated at once. In the United States, this procedure averages $9,300 (per ASPS). That means eyelid surgery in Mexico is about 74% less than in the U.S.
Mexican clinics usually include pre-op exams, local or IV anesthesia, surgical fees, post-op medications, and follow-up visits in the price. In the U.S., anesthesia, facility fees, and follow-up care are often billed separately. Always confirm exactly what’s included with your chosen clinic.
