Himplant® in Tijuana, Mexico
What is Himplant®?
Himplant® is the first and only FDA-cleared cosmetic penile implant currently on the market — a soft, medical-grade silicone implant placed under the skin of the penis by a Himplant®-trained surgeon to increase girth and flaccid length. The outpatient procedure typically takes under an hour, results are long-lasting, and the implant is removable. Patients have experienced an average girth increase of 1–2 inches and an approximate 50% increase in flaccid length on average. Individual results may vary.

Planning your visit
Cross-border care in Zona Río
Tijuana sits directly across the border from San Diego, California, and gives U.S. and Mexico patients a practical route for Himplant® care with Dr. José Alfredo Ruiz. Treatment is provided through a dedicated medical-tourism program in Zona Río, the city's main medical and hotel district. Patients searching for penis enlargement in Tijuana can plan around virtual consultation, treatment planning, outpatient surgery, structured recovery, and post-operative follow-up with Spanish and English coordination.
Arriving through TIJ, CBX, or SAN
Tijuana International Airport (TIJ) is about 15 minutes from Zona Río and is reachable from the U.S. side through the Cross Border Xpress (CBX) pedestrian bridge from San Diego. San Diego International Airport (SAN) is the major U.S. gateway, roughly 30–45 minutes north of the border, with nonstop flights from across the United States. Patients can cross the border on foot or by car from San Diego, or fly directly into TIJ and use CBX when that route fits the travel plan.

How most patients structure the visit
Most patients plan a short Tijuana stay around pre-operative consultation, outpatient Himplant® procedure, early recovery in Zona Río, and post-operative follow-up before returning home. The procedure is typically under an hour, but the full plan should account for border timing, hotel rest, clinic transport, and the final review before travel. Zona Río hotels are within a few minutes of the surgical facility.
Why Tijuana works for medical travel
Tijuana combines cross-border access from San Diego, a hotel district built around medical travel, and coordinated transport for international patients. Dr. Ruiz is a urologist and reconstructive urologist, a proctor and international speaker, and his program is designed around medical-tourism logistics. Care is available in Spanish and English.

Based on historical results, we have seen an average increase of 1″ to 2″ of added girth to the penis. Flaccid penile length gains have also been reported. Erect length increases, if any, are unpredictable and depend on the individual patient’s anatomy. Individual results may vary.
Based on a clinical review of 400 patients over 5 years, there were no cases of changes to penile function, ability to get or sustain an erection, or ejaculation during sex. There may be a change in sensation. Some patients have reported both increased and decreased sensitivity. This is generally temporary and typically resolves over time as the skin expands. Individual results may vary.
The Himplant® implant is designed to feel natural whether your penis is in a flaccid ("soft") or erect ("hard") state. We have used soft medical-grade silicone to achieve the most natural feel possible.
Additionally, the capsule formation around the implant will give the implant more of a natural feel to the touch. The entirety of this process will take anywhere between 6-12 months.
Patients often report that it's undetectable to sexual partners who have not seen their penises prior to the procedure. However, it is essential to note that the implant is a foreign object, and it may be detected.
Each patient’s circumstances will determine the cost of the implant. Most patients pay $10,500–$19,000, depending on location, surgeon, and add‑ons (e.g., circumcision). Additional costs may include circumcision for uncircumcised patients, lipectomy for overweight patients, travel for remote patients, etc.
If paying for the procedure is an issue, many of our clinics offer financing plans, including zero-interest options for a period of time.
