Dr. Alejandro Leal focused in the operating room

International surgeon · Dr. Alejandro Leal

Before we talk
about surgery,
let's talk about you.

Nobody wakes up wanting a brachioplasty. They wake up unhappy with their arms. Here you choose the area, and we show you the honest routes for it — with surgery, without surgery, or maintenance — how long recovery actually takes, and what moves the price.

Which area concerns you?

Touch the part of your body that brought you here. Each area opens its own file: what is actually happening, the possible routes, recovery as a calendar, the questions people ask about that area, and what determines the price. No medical names nobody searches for.

Four units, one medical file

There is more than one route,
and sometimes yours stays
out of the operating room.

Most clinics only sell what they own. Here four units share one roof and one clinical file, and that is what makes it possible to tell you when the operating room is not what you need.

In his own words

The questions people are embarrassed to ask

The surgeon answers on camera, without the marketing gloss. These videos live on his channel and are recorded in Spanish. If you would like your consultation held in English, say so when you book and it will be arranged.

From the first question to the operating room

Five steps, and you always know which one you are on

01Video consultation

Held in your time zone. History, photographs, expectations, and an honest answer about whether surgery is right for you.

02Written quote

In writing before you buy a flight: what is done, how long it takes, what is included and what is quoted separately.

03Pre-operative work-up

Lab work, cardiology clearance when it applies, and the instructions for the two weeks before surgery.

04Surgery

Accredited operating room, titled anesthesiologist, and the monitored night or nights your procedure calls for.

05Follow-up

Included review visits, garment and drain management, and continued contact once you are back home.

Coming from abroad

If you are flying in,
the plan starts before
you book the ticket.

A video consultation in your time zone, a closed written quote before you buy the flight, coordinated lodging and transfers, and the full calendar of how many days you need to stay before it is safe to fly home.

Distance is a schedule problem, not an obstacle

Patients have traveled to this clinic from as far as the United Kingdom. The difference is not the surgery — it is the planning around it: the time difference, the length of the stay, and the date you are cleared to board a plane again.

What it costs

How your price is built,
explained before you sit
in front of the surgeon.

Your figure comes from your case: it depends on how many areas, how much operating room time and which implant. What is published is what moves the number, what is always included and what is quoted separately. With that you can compare properly — including against another clinic.

The six factors that move the price

  • How many areas are treated in the same session
  • The operating room: which one, and for how long
  • Who looks after you while you are asleep
  • The implant brand and its warranty
  • Compression garments
  • What happens before and what happens after

Frequently asked

What people ask before they write

Can my consultation be held in English?
Yes. Tell us when you book that you would like the consultation held in English, and it is arranged that way. Ask for your written quote and your post-operative instructions in English as well and they will be prepared in English.
What does the consultation include?
It is a full medical consultation with Dr. Leal: history, examination of the area, a review of what you are expecting, and the indication — which may be a procedure, a non-surgical treatment, or waiting. If you are abroad, the first consultation is held by video and the physical examination happens once you arrive, before surgery is confirmed. The current consultation fee, and what is credited if you go ahead, are confirmed when you book.
Will I be operated on the same day I meet the surgeon?
No. Between the assessment and surgery come the pre-operative studies and, where it applies, cardiology clearance. Any clinic that offers to operate on you the day it meets you is skipping that step. For patients flying in, the assessment and lab work are scheduled for the first day or two of the stay so that surgery follows within the same trip.
Who administers the anesthesia?
A titled anesthesiologist, present for the whole procedure and through immediate recovery. It is not optional and it is not negotiable — and it is one of the reasons a very low price should worry you rather than attract you.
How long do I need to stay in Guadalajara?
For a body contouring procedure the typical stay is 10 to 14 days, counted from arrival to the day you are cleared to fly. Facial and eyelid procedures are usually shorter. The exact number of days is set in your written plan, because it depends on the procedure, on drains, and on how your recovery goes.
How do prices work if I earn in dollars, pounds or euros?
The quote is issued in writing in Mexican pesos (MXN). You can convert it at the exchange rate of the day to see the figure in your own currency, keeping in mind that the rate moves between the day you are quoted and the day you pay. Nothing is added to the quoted figure after the fact.

Take the step

One hour with you,
and you leave knowing where you stand.

And if your best moment is further off, you leave with the plan to reach it.
