Get slim and trim with liposuction in Thailand. This is one of the most popular cosmetic surgery procedures worldwide, helping people re-shape specific parts of their bodies they are unhappy with. It gets rid of the fat you never thought you could lose, and, when booking at a Medical Departures' verified clinic, is safe and affordable.

Liposuction can be used on all those difficult areas in your body – stomach, hips, thighs, bottom, calves, arms and even the back. You can target just one site or you can have several sites done on the same day, sculpting your body into the shape you desire.

Why Should I Consider Liposuction in Thailand?

Thailand is home to some of the world’s leading facilities accredited with the Joint Commission International, a prestigious international organization that offers accreditation for high standards in healthcare and patient safety.

By travelling to Thailand for surgery, you also have the chance to enjoy a fantastic holiday before your procedure, with the country home to dozens of superb beach, mountain and city locations. From the rolling green hills of Chiang Mai, to the beaches in the south and buzzing capital, Bangkok, Thailand has so much going for it as both a traditional and medical tourism destination.

Before you book any medical procedure abroad you should always do a little research. Find out what you can about the procedure, and more importantly, about the clinic and/or the physician who will be performing it. It is your body – and you shouldn’t take unnecessary risks, and while Thailand undoubtedly has fantastic facilities and the expertise to match, it is worth spending a little time making sure you have picked a reliable facility.

What’s Involved in a Liposuction Procedure and How Long Does it Take?

Most liposuction procedures take less than an hour, although it can take several hours if you are having multiple sites done on both sides of your body.

There are also different techniques which may be used by your physician:

• Tumescent liposuction uses a mixture of anesthetic and saline solution which is injected into the designated target areas through small incisions;
• Ultrasound liposuction liquefies the fat with ultrasound.

Note: In both cases, the fat is removed through a specialized suction device. Read more in detail about what liposuction surgery involves here.

Prices vary according to how many areas are treated, but average prices for liposuction per area in Thailand are around AUD $2,500 (US $2,000, CAD $2,300; £1,200 GBP, €1,700).
