Buttock Lift

You must be at least 20 years of age to have elective surgery in Thailand. Patients under the age of 20 years need to provide a signed Consent Form from their parent/guardian if the surgeon accepts the case.

We can secure priority appointments for our clients subject to the surgeon’s availability. However it is best to request an appointment well in advance so that the surgeon can advise you about the steps to take before coming for surgery.

This procedure takes up to 4-5 hours under general anaesthetic.

The incisions will depend upon the technique used and amount of excess skin to be removed. Commonly it is made on the upper portion of the buttocks (within the bikini line), incision patterns can vary depending on the amount and location of excess skin and fat.

Scaring will be present where the incisions were made. These may fade to fine lines or may remain obvious after healing is completed. How your scars will appear depends on how your body heals.

Up to 2 nights admission is necessary.

The surgeon usually recommends a stay of at least 12-14 nights in Thailand in total, (based on having surgery the day after arrival). This is to allow you time to recover and to have a follow up consultation with the surgeon and removal of sutures. The surgeon may change the recommended time overseas based on age, medical conditions or where more than one surgery is being performed.

For your own safety you should observe the recommendation. Air travel presents risks such as deep vein thrombosis. To leave sooner would present an unnecessary risk. If you cannot stay the recommended time it is best not to have surgery overseas.

Yes, the surgeon will examine you and discuss the procedure with you before your surgery. He will answer any questions you may have

There are always risks in having surgery. This applies whether you have surgery overseas or at home. Risks include unfavourable scarring, bleeding, infection, poor healing of incisions, temporary or permanent changes in nipple or breast sensation, swelling and bruising, tissue necrosis, fluid accumulation, possibility of revisional surgery, and risks associated with anaesthesia. Smokers may experience a delay the healing process and are at a higher risk of complications. Please talk to the surgeon about all of the risks before proceeding with surgery.

When we have your case assessed by the surgeon before you travel overseas, you may be given some specific instructions by the plastic surgeon about preparing for surgery. Generally, you will be asked to stop some medications and all vitamin supplements, alcohol and smoking. You must not stop any prescription medications without first consulting your prescribing physician or instruction from the surgeon.

The surgeon will provide post-operative care instructions after surgery which usually includes wearing compression garments.

Please ask your surgeon about this as it can vary from case to case.
