Bangkok

Bangkok is the main medical-travel stop in Southeast Asia for aesthetic treatment. Clinics line Sukhumvit, Thonglor and Siam. The Department of Health Service Support is the register used for the licence check.

Savings against Singapore are real on several indexed treatments, and they are not automatic. A generic HIFU package and a named Ultherapy treatment can both be advertised as a “lift”. Read the Bangkok versus Singapore cost comparison before you book a flight around a headline price.

Build in downtime. Do not put a tightening or resurfacing treatment on the day you fly home, and get the product brand and unit count in writing at the consultation.
