Procedures Offered
Arm Lift (Brachioplasty)
Surgical procedure to reduce excess sagging skin and fat between the underarm and elbow, reshaping the upper arm to create a smoother, more toned contour. Results vary by individual. Particularly popular among patients who have lost significant weight or those experiencing age-related skin laxity.
Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck)
Surgical procedure removing excess abdominal skin and fat while tightening underlying muscles. Among the fourth to fifth most performed cosmetic surgical procedures worldwide with approximately 1 million procedures annually. Addresses loose skin, diastasis recti, and stubborn fat deposits resistant to diet and exercise.
Thigh Lift (Thighplasty)
Surgical body contouring procedure that reshapes the thighs by removing excess skin and fat, resulting in smoother, better-proportioned contours. Commonly performed in patients who have experienced significant weight loss from lifestyle changes or bariatric surgery, and those with age-related skin laxity. Multiple techniques available including inner (medial), mini, vertical, outer (lateral), and circumferential thigh lifts based on individual needs.
Systemic Chemotherapy Cycles
Cyclic cytotoxic chemotherapy using cell-killing drugs to destroy rapidly dividing cancer cells throughout the body. Treatment given in 21-28 day cycles allows recovery between sessions, with 4-8 cycles over 3-6 months depending on cancer type and response. Thailand offers 50-70% cost savings with JCI-accredited facilities using identical NCCN-guideline protocols.
IMRT (Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy)
Advanced external beam radiation using computer-controlled linear accelerators with multileaf collimators to precisely shape radiation beams to tumor contour, enabling dose escalation while sparing healthy tissue. Thailand offers treatment at 50-80% lower cost than US.
Targeted Therapy
Precision cancer treatment using drugs that target specific molecular alterations in cancer cells, including tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), monoclonal antibodies, and antibody-drug conjugates for patients with actionable biomarkers.
ACL Reconstruction
Arthroscopic surgical procedure replacing the torn anterior cruciate ligament with a graft to restore knee stability, performed using minimally invasive techniques with same-day discharge.
Carpal Tunnel Release
Surgical decompression of the median nerve at the wrist to relieve numbness, tingling, and weakness, with 75-90% of patients achieving complete or near-complete symptom resolution.
Hip Resurfacing
Bone-conserving alternative to total hip replacement where the femoral head is trimmed and capped with a metal covering rather than removed, preserving natural bone stock for younger, active male patients with 96.5% survival at 20 years.
Knee Arthroscopy
Minimally invasive knee surgery using a small camera to diagnose and treat meniscal tears, loose bodies, and cartilage damage with rapid recovery.
Laminectomy (Spinal Decompression)
Spinal decompression surgery removing the lamina to relieve pressure on spinal cord or nerve roots, treating spinal stenosis symptoms including leg pain, numbness, and weakness.
Meniscus Repair
Arthroscopic surgical procedure that sutures a torn meniscus back together to preserve its function as a shock absorber, with approximately 80-90% early healing success rates and 89% return to sport rates in clinical studies based on Mayo Clinic systematic review data.
Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery
Advanced spinal procedures performed through small incisions using tubular retractors, endoscopes, and real-time imaging guidance for faster recovery and less pain than traditional open surgery.
Shoulder Replacement
Shoulder arthroplasty (anatomic or reverse) replacing damaged joint surfaces with artificial components, with approximately 90% of implants lasting 10+ years based on meta-analysis data.
Wrist Joint Replacement
Total wrist arthroplasty replacing damaged wrist joint surfaces with metal and polyethylene components, preserving motion while relieving pain, with fourth-generation implants showing 92-96% survival at 5 years.
Vertebroplasty / Kyphoplasty
Minimally invasive spinal procedures injecting bone cement into fractured vertebrae to provide rapid pain relief and stabilization, with 80-95% of patients typically experiencing significant improvement within 24-72 hours based on published data, though individual results may vary.
