The board that certifies this specialty

Questions patients actually ask

How do I check a plastic surgeon in Mérida is certified?

Plastic surgery has its own board. A general surgery certificate is not a plastic surgery certificate, and the difference is worth confirming before an elective operation. Certification runs five years and then must be renewed, so ask for the certificate number and the expiry date, then look both up in the CONACEM public directory.

Is "certified" on a clinic website enough?

No. Clinics and medical plazas across Mexico advertise "certified specialists" without naming a board, a number or a date. Certification is a public record with an expiry, so the word alone is an adjective rather than something you can act on.

How long should I stay in Mérida?

Drains, compression garments and restricted activity for weeks. Recovery time in the area is longer than most patients plan for. Mérida is reached by air, so plan the recovery stay before booking a return flight.
