Plastic surgery in Canada: prices, licences and what to ask

Updated 3 November 2026

Plastic surgery in Canada generally costs from about CA$5,000 to CA$18,000 or more, and the price depends on the procedure, the clinic and the city. Upper eyelid surgery in Toronto starts from about CA$6,700, while a facelift can cost CA$22,000 or more. For a quote that fits your case, send a request on BlaBlaPrice.

Licences and who may operate

Any licensed medical doctor can legally perform cosmetic surgery in Canada, but training differs widely. Ask whether the surgeon is board-certified in plastic surgery, a specialist certification that requires at least five years of residency training after medical school. Check the doctor's registration with the provincial College of Physicians and Surgeons before you book.

Season and recovery planning

Plan the date around recovery rather than the calendar. In Toronto, Montreal, Ottawa and Calgary, winter from December to February brings icy sidewalks, so arrange transport and help for the first days after surgery. Book the consultation early enough to recover before any trip or event, and remember that the summer months from June to August are busy for clinics.

How the price is set and what is included

Clinics quote a price per procedure, and the total can change with anesthesia, the operating facility, follow-up visits and any revision work. Some clinics advertise monthly financing, for example from about CA$87 a month for upper eyelid surgery in one Toronto listing. Compare what each quote includes, and ask for the total in CA$ before you agree. A Toronto clinic notes that prices in Canada and the United States are often close, so compare the same procedure in both places before you decide.

What to write in the request

Name the procedure, whether it is a first surgery or a revision, your goal, the city and what you want included in the price, such as anesthesia, the facility and follow-up. Say when you would like to have it done and your budget in CA$. Clinics reply with their quote and terms, and you choose whom to contact, so your details stay private until then.

Offers for procedures come through BlaBlaPrice: describe the case in your own words in the chat, and the AI asks for missing details, checks clinic websites and price lists in Canada, then shows the prices and clinics it finds. Registered clinics reply in the chat with their own offer, and your contacts stay hidden until you choose to share them. BlaBlaPrice does not replace a consultation with a doctor.
