Our Take

Dr. Badilla is a credibly credentialed surgeon-led practice in the Escazu/Santa Ana corridor, with the international memberships (ASPS world member, ISAPS) that signal he's plugged into mainstream plastic-surgery standards. It's a smaller, single-surgeon operation rather than a large center, which means continuity of care with the surgeon but lower volume. The website does not specify the operating hospital, so confirm where surgery is performed and that the facility is accredited.

Pros

  • ASPS international + ISAPS memberships
  • Surgeon-led continuity of care
  • Strong breast-surgery focus
  • Upscale Escazu / Santa Ana area
  • Internationally aligned credentials

Cons

  • Operating hospital not stated online (confirm before booking)
  • Single-surgeon, lower volume
  • Quote-based pricing only
  • Smaller practice vs established centers

What's Included

  • Consultation
  • Surgical procedure
  • Post-op follow-up

Recovery Notes

Plan a 7-14 day stay for post-operative monitoring; body-contouring and combination cases need the longer end before flying.
