What are the Popular Plastic Surgery Procedures in Thailand?

Plastic surgery procedure Thail

Thailand has emerged as one of the most prominent medical tourism destinations as it has numerous recognized hospitals, including 30 JCI-accredited institutions, with the newest medical equipment and medical specialists that have studied and been educated in the West. 

Comparing the pricing with the prices in most European nations for example, by opting to have plastic surgery in Thailand you are likely to save between 20 to 60% on healthcare expenditures, while still retaining the quality of healthcare services.

Cosmetic Surgeons in Thailand have extensive experience of several years. The majority of them have practiced in the country and obtained the essential training from major nations due to the enormous number of patients. Most cosmetic surgery institutes in Thailand offer a complete spectrum of plastic surgery targeted at modifying aesthetic looks and enhancing lifestyles. 

The exceptional quality and specific skill of the doctors, first-rate hospital treatments, and cheap rates all add up to a rewarding all-around package. Furthermore, individuals may potentially have access to cutting-edge technical choices like robotic processes. One of the newest breakthroughs in the past 20 years is robotic surgery. Though robotic surgery is substantially more expensive in Thailand than conventional plastic surgery. 

Implementing Different Types of Plastic Surgery

  • Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation persists as the most widely done aesthetic surgical procedure globally. It is also usually referred to as augmentation mammoplasty, which entails utilizing implants to volumize, tone, and enhance the aesthetics or appeal of the entire chest area. Breast reconstruction can be accomplished either using breast implant surgery or by utilizing flap reconstruction. 

Implant-based reconstruction includes the implantation of breast implants to restore the breast's form. The flap reconstruction method is also referred to as the autologous approach, as the patient’s tissue, removed from some other area of their body is used to produce a new breast. Breast augmentation surgery in Thailand might range from around 2,700 USD to just over 5,000 USD.

Risk associated: 

  • Nerve injury

  • Infection

  • Implant leaking or rupture

  • Persistent pain

  • Fluid buildup (seroma)

  • Capsular contracture

  • Loss of sensation around the areola and nipples

  • Possible leaking over time leading to surgical repair

 

  • Abdominoplasty

It is popularly known as a "tummy tuck" and is a conventional operation that removes extra fat and skin from the lower and middle sections of the abdomen. This is preceded by tightening of the wall of abdominal muscles to increase the look of the tummy. 

It is crucial to examine the health of the patient and establish whether there is any risk from the treatment. It should be mentioned that a tummy tuck is not an alternative for losing weight. Abdominoplasty expenses in Thailand range between 4100 USD to 10560 USD approximately.

Risk associated:

  • Numbness in the vicinity of the incision

  • Hematoma

  • Blood clotting

  • Infection

  • Prolonged pain

  • Recurring looseness of skin

  • Unfavorable scarring

 

  • Liposuction

The function of liposuction is to eliminate any excess fat underneath the skin. It can be performed on numerous parts of the body, including the belly, hips, arms, back, or face. The purpose is to enhance the figure and look. Liposuction is used to reduce fat from portions of the body that haven't responded to exercise and diet. 

This treatment generally occurs in conjunction with other surgeries such as tummy tucks, breast reductions, and facelifts. The cost of liposuction might range from around 500 USD to over 2,500 USD.

Risk associated:

  • Fat necrosis

  • Bleeding

  • Sagging of the skin 

  • Skin contouring irregularities 

  • Possible scarring in regions that do not heal entirely

 

  • Rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty often referred to as a nose job, has become one of the most popular plastic surgeries internationally. It can be performed for medical reasons such as repair of an aberrant nose structure or septal deviation which causes an impediment to breathing. Along with treating health issues, rhinoplasty is carried out to enhance the appearance and nasal features for cosmetic purposes. The methods differ according to the individual and may include a nose implant or removal surgery, nose contouring, or augmentation rhinoplasty. The cost of rhinoplasty might vary from under 500 USD, to under 1,200 USD.

Risk associated:

  • Nosebleeds

  • Scarring around the base of the nose

  • Bursting of tiny blood vessels on the surface of the skin

  • Swelling

  • Severe nerve damage

  • Damage to subcutaneous blood vessels

  • Poor healing at the point of incision

 

  • Rhytidectomy/Facelift

This surgery is usually known as a "facelift" and can address the apparent signs of skin problems around the face and neck with the aging process. During the procedure, excess skin and muscles are eliminated to tighten the skin of the face and neck. 

The incision sites are usually unobtrusive and must not be subjected to heavy pressure or rapid movements as it might harm the cuts and result in poor recovery as well as scarring. A facelift in Thailand might cost you from 2,000 USD to 5,000 USD.

Risk associated:

  • Skin necrosis

  • Post-operative infection

  • Major or minor hematomas

  • Nerve damage

  • Alopecia and malposition of the hairline

  • Bruising and skin irregularities

To Conclude

Folks from all over the world go to Thailand to fix a physical imperfection. However, each form of surgery carries its own set of health issues, which is why practically all cases of plastic surgery in Thailand are excluded from health insurance coverage unless it is judged medically needed, such as breast reconstruction surgery after mastectomy.
