If you listen only to agenda-driven media coverage in Europe and America, you are probably guilty of assuming that plastic surgery Thailand is a serious risk. It’s much easier to imagine the hellish, drug-fuelled, poverty stricken country you see on movies than the reality which is top notch healthcare, falling crime rates and surgery at a fraction of the cost of that in the West. Obviously, this realistic portrayal doesn’t go down well with those who are desperate to keep Western healthcare at the top of the ladder even if it doesn’t deserve to be. Plastic surgery Thailand is a threat because the low cost of living in the nation allows for high quality services at low prices.

Inexpensive breast implants in Thailand are an alluring proposition for women fed up with having small busts. Women have been having implant surgery of some type for more than 100 years but it is only within the last 50 years and the advent of silicone implants that breast implant surgery has really captured the public’s imagination. Celebrities are plastered across the front pages of various widely-read glossy magazines with their cup size mysteriously increasing one or two notches. This naturally arouses the curiosity of women who seek to emulate their heroines until they realize the full price. However, while this type of surgery is out of reach in the West, breast implants in Thailand are very affordable indeed.

The idea of having a facelift in Thailand doesn’t appeal to many people until they discover the many advantages. There is no doubt that various cosmetic procedures are becoming increasingly popular. People are fed up with the aging process robbing them of their youthful appearance. More than 100,000 people in the United States alone had facelifts in 2009 with spending estimated at more than $662 million. That’s great news for American surgeons you would think. But they are worried about the prospect of people going overseas for their surgery. In fact, it’s already happening with tens of thousands of Americans and hundreds of thousands of others traveling overseas for a facelift in Thailand.

If you are considering getting your nose surgery, also called nose argumentation, medical term “Rhinoplasty”, literally meaning “nose molding” or sometimes known as “Tiplasty’, or even the common “nose job”. Whatever one calls it, should you get it done in Thailand? After all it’s a minor surgery and local surgeons abound.

In this specific situation where the procedure is fairly straight forward and the risk is minor when dealing with a reputable surgeon in a modern facility, then the choice is more of a financial decision than anything else. The financial savings could allow you to relax and recuperate at an exotic beachside location or to go on a shopping spree in one of Bangkok’s world famous mega-shopping centers returning home after the swelling and after-surgery effects have vanished. The savings can be as much as 7% less than having the same procedure in many western countries

A feature of plastic surgery Thailand is the amount of misinformation associated with it. If you’ve never been to a place, it’s so much easier to listen to reports which may or may not be true rather than finding out for yourself. The sad truth is, many people will avoid Thailand on the basis of what they see in the news or more bizarrely, on the big screen.

With medical tourism playing such a significant role in Thailand’s economy, it is small wonder that the nation’s government is pulling out all the stops to ensure that cosmetic surgery in Thailand is among the best in the world with the lowest prices.

The phrase liposuction in Thailand probably conjures up images of a dimly lit room and a ill-qualified ‘doctor’ hacking at flesh with an implement that resembles a machete more than a scalpel. This is of course comes from the point of view of an individual who has never been to Thailand and is completely unaware of the fact that surgeons in that nation are as skilled as any in the United States, United Kingdom or other so-called First World countries. Thankfully, this is not a viewpoint shared by the 1.
