If you are unhappy with your large breasts and the associated problems, like back pain, breast reduction surgery in Pattaya could be a viable, money-saving option.

Use this Medical Departures guide to find a reputable surgeon in Thailand's famous seaside resort city and look forward to the best prices online and 24/7 customer service assistance. 

Not only will you lose some weight from around your chest area, but this procedure can also make you feel better about yourself. You will be able to wear the clothes you always wanted and find it easier to find bras.

Reduction mammoplasty surgery can help with the following issues:

• Shoulder, neck and back pain
• Problems with exercising and swimming
• Bad posture
• Loss of confidence
• Bra straps digging into your skin
• Sleeplessness due to breast discomfort
• Excess weight

Cosmetic surgery may well be something that you have been putting off primarily due to the high costs at home. However, surgery like this is at least 50% less in Thailand, with Pattaya one of the top destinations in the country to visit.

This is also a great opportunity to combine a holiday in Pattaya, or other parts of this exciting Southeast Asian country, before the date of your procedure. 

If you have apprehensions about the skill and expertise of medical facilities in Pattaya, you need not worry. The surgeons in Pattaya with whom we have partnered hold similar qualifications as those in the Western world and many have even received their medical degrees from those countries.

They are also affiliated with the same international professional organizations that surgeons the world over are. The medical facilities in the city are state-of-the-art and you will not feel shortchanged on any score.

You can search online and land upon numerous sites that promise a good deal. However, going this route can result in booking surgery at a facility that has hidden costs, has falsified reviews or is simply just not up to the job.

When booking through Medical Departures, you are assured of a safe, comfortable experience in Thailand. We carry out checks and investigations into the quality of medical care, the reliability of the clinic and the certifications of the doctors. If any clinic or staff does not meet our high standards, we do not list them on our site. 

Reduction mammoplasty surgery can take between three and five hours, depending on the size of your breasts and the placing of the incisions.

Different types of incisions leave a varied degree of scarring. After the incisions are made, the surgeon removes tissue and fat, reshapes the breasts and then sutures the incisions closed. The nipples may also be repositioned during the surgery.

You may be required to stay overnight in the hospital or the doctor may send you home, depending on the extent of the surgery and your overall health.

Initially, you will require painkillers and it is also important to make sure that you are using the correct bandages, tapes and/or surgical bras as the doctor advises. Complete recovery may take up to six weeks and it may be a couple of months after that before the breasts assume their final shape.

The average cost of a breast reduction in Pattaya is around AUD $3,800 (GBP £1,850; US $2,700; €2,400) compared to $18,000 in Australia (UK £8,700; US $12,700, EUR €11,500).

To get started and see the latest prices on offer, take a look at the world-class Bangkok Hospital (Pattaya), among the top facilities in the whole country for a range of cosmetic procedures, including breast reduction surgery.
