Mississauga has 24 clinics offering plastic and cosmetic surgery, ranging from solo practices run by a single surgeon to larger multi-doctor operations with in-house accredited surgical suites. The category covers both reconstructive work (post-cancer breast reconstruction, scar revision, hand surgery) and elective cosmetic procedures (rhinoplasty, breast augmentation, tummy tucks, liposuction, facelifts, and injectables like Botox and fillers). Some clinics focus entirely on cosmetic work, others split their practice between medical and aesthetic cases, and a few operate as med-spas with a surgeon overseeing non-surgical treatments only.
What to check before booking a consultation
Confirm the surgeon is certified by the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada in plastic surgery specifically, not a related field with a similar-sounding name. Ask where the surgery itself takes place: a hospital, an accredited private surgical facility, or an unaccredited office setting. Accreditation matters because it means the facility has passed independent review for safety, anesthesia protocols, and emergency readiness. Look at before-and-after photos of the surgeon's own patients rather than stock imagery, and ask how complications and revisions are handled, including whether revision surgery is included in the original quote.
How we score clinics
Our ranking weighs verified credentials, facility accreditation, patient review patterns over time, transparency around pricing and consultation process, and consistency of outcomes reported by patients. The full breakdown of how we weight and verify each factor is on our methodology page. For the ranked list of Mississauga's top-rated clinics, see our best plastic surgeons guide.
