The Ultimate Guide to Liposuction in Bangkok



Top Clinics in Bangkok




Introduction


Last fact-checked: 20 December 2020

As a quick-fix surgical procedure, liposuction is one of the most popular ways to remove unwanted fat and create a better-looking body. Keep reading to find out how you can undergo this treatment in Bangkok for thousands less than back home by booking through Medical Departures. 

Liposuction is one of the safest and most affordable procedures for getting rid of fat in a number of areas. Both men and women can undergo the treatment.

Liposuction works best on:

  • Localized fat deposits that are out-of-proportion
  • Areas where you require more definition
  • Patients with good skin elasticity

If you don’t have good skin elasticity, you may need a body lift procedure in combination with liposuction.

Why Should I Have Liposuction in Bangkok?


Thailand has world-renowned healthcare facilities, many located in Bangkok. Since the 1990s when Bangkok first opened its doors to medical tourists, international patients have been flocking here for all manner of medical, surgical and cosmetic procedures. 

With prices often at least 50% lower than in Western countries, there is a symbiotic relationship between patients and providers; one can't exist without the other. For their part, medical providers ensure their services remain of a high-standard, reinvesting the money they receive from patients to keep their services at the best quality. This means patients continue to come, keeping the cycle going.

However, this isn’t to say that patients should assume everywhere in Bangkok is of the quality they desire. That's why we always stress the importance of doing your research. When a trend becomes popular, unscrupulous practices inevitably join the bandwagon, offering inferior quality services with scant regard for patient care.

This is why Medical Departures has been established. We pre-check all our clinics, so when you book you are assured they meet certain quality standards. We conduct onsite visits, and verify doctor qualifications, international affiliations and professional registrations, which we list on our website alongside authenticated patient reviews and high definition clinic photos.

Our aim is to provide the information you need to select the option that's best for you, with all the necessary facts at your disposal. Although no medical procedure is risk-free, making sure all the boxes are ticked before you begin treatment is certainly the best start.

How Long Does Liposuction Take?


The length of time the procedure takes depends on what area(s) you are having done and how much fat is being removed. The procedure takes around an hour; if you are having multiple treatments on both sides of your body, it could take up to three hours.

An anesthetic will be administered before the procedure is commenced, after which small incisions will be made in the areas to be treated and a suction device inserted to remove the fat. The fat is liquefied either by ultrasound or with a saline solution (tumescent liposuction).

How Long Does it Take to Recover From Liposuction?


After the procedure, you are likely to suffer some discomfort, and compression garments will need to be worn for several weeks afterward. Leaking from the wounds may occur for several days, and swelling and bruising will be at its worst a couple of days after the procedure, decreasing steadily one to three weeks later.

You will be encouraged to walk around as soon as you can after the procedure but should avoid strenuous exercise for six weeks.

How Much Can I Save on Liposuction in Bangkok Compared to Australia or New Zealand?


The cost of liposuction in Bangkok will depend on how many areas you have treated; average prices are AUD $2,500, compared to around AUD $5,000 in Australia.

Leyla Arvas is a sweetheart... I follow her and her clinic on Instagram as well... I think both the cleanliness and hygiene of the clinic and the friendliness, charm and beauty of Ms. Leyla Arvas are enough to explain and understand everything... I give it a ten out of ten ????

When I first came for ice epilation, I had question marks. As said, it is a painless application. It brings the solution. Thank you.

I get laser epilation service from here. My skin is very sensitive. That's why I receive service from experts in a polyclinic environment, with the best devices. Mr. Alihan did his job meticulously since the first session. The sessions progress very quickly with his respectful and level-headed conversation. He is very careful about hygiene. I go to my sessions with peace of mind in the pandemic environment. Thank you Mr. Alihan and Quartz family.

We have been attending the quartz clinic with my wife for a while. They do their job professionally with sincerity, keeping patient satisfaction at the forefront. We were examined personally by Ms. Leyla and we continue our procedures with her approval. We would like to personally thank Ms. Nil who accompanied us during this process ☺️
