How it works

Bookimed is free for patients – clinics pay us a commission, and you pay the clinic its own price with no markup. Five steps to your male buccal fat removal in Thailand:

  1. Share your case

    Tell us about your goals and share photos of your face from the front, both sides, and at an angle from each side.

  2. Get treatment plans

    Your coordinator finds clinics that match your needs and helps you choose. Your preferred clinics then send personalized treatment plans and quotes for you to compare.

  3. Plan your trip

    We set treatment dates that work for you and help arrange your flights and accommodation. If needed, we request a visa support letter from the clinic.

  4. Visit the clinic

    The clinic team performs your male buccal fat removal on the agreed dates. We support you throughout your trip.

  5. Recover at home

    You can fly home 3–7 days after surgery, and your result settles over 3–6 months. Your coordinator stays in touch and helps arrange a follow-up if you need one.

Some clinics ask for a deposit. A $200 or €200 deposit paid through Bookimed comes off your clinic bill and is refundable up to 10 calendar days before your visit. A deposit paid to the clinic follows its own terms.

Where to get a Male Buccal Fat Removal in Thailand

In Thailand, Bangkok has 1 clinics, giving patients the widest choice, with prices from $2,000 / ฿68,000. Suvarnabhumi Airport is 30 km from central Bangkok, so patients should allow for an onward trip into the city.

Male Buccal Fat Removal recovery timeline: what to expect week by week

After an uncomplicated case, you can usually fly home 3–7 days after surgery with your surgeon’s approval. After surgery on both cheeks through the mouth, desk work is usually possible in 3–7 days, although swelling may remain visible. Strenuous exercise may resume after 1–2 weeks, once your surgeon clears you. Your final cheek contour emerges as residual swelling resolves over 3–6 months.

  1. First 48 hours

    Swelling peaks, and you may have mild pain or minor oozing from the incisions. Choose soft or liquid foods, and use cold compresses and antiseptic mouth rinses as advised.

  2. Days 3–7

    Swelling and bruising begin to decrease, and desk work is usually possible. You may fly home 3–7 days after surgery with your surgeon’s approval, but avoid hard or chewy foods and strenuous activity.

  3. Weeks 2–4

    Most visible swelling subsides, and your sutures dissolve during this period. Return gradually to full exercise only after your surgeon clears you.

  4. Months 3–6

    Residual swelling resolves, and your final cheek contour emerges over this period.

When to contact your clinic: Contact your clinic for fever, spreading redness, or pus, and for swelling that keeps expanding or bleeding that persists. Also contact your clinic if you notice a cheek saliva leak, facial weakness, or difficulty opening your mouth. For chest pain or sudden breathlessness after a long flight, seek emergency help locally.

Traveling to Thailand for a Male Buccal Fat Removal

Plan to stay in Thailand for 3–7 days after the procedure before flying home. US and UK passport holders can stay visa-free for up to 30 days, and a longer planned-treatment stay may need a medical visa.

When What happens
Before the procedure Arrival, consultation and agreed tests
3–7 days after Check-up
3–7 days after Flight home

Before you fly

  • Visa. US and UK passport holders may stay visa-free up to 30 days. Longer planned-treatment stays may need a medical visa. Foreign travelers must submit the Thailand Digital Arrival Card before arrival.
  • Passport. US officials strongly recommend six months of passport validity beyond arrival in Thailand. Your UK passport must expire at least six months after arrival and have at least 1 blank page.
  • Medicines. You may bring up to 30 days of personal medicines for personal use. US travelers should carry prescription medicines in their original packaging with a doctor's prescription and check that they are legal in Thailand. UK travelers should note that medicine rules may differ. Thai hospitals and pharmacies usually accept UK prescriptions.
  • Hand luggage. The clinic asks for a relaxed front-face photo, both side-profile photos, 45-degree photos of both cheeks, a smiling front-face photo if available, and a list of blood thinners.

Getting there and staying

  • Airports. Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK) is 30 km from central Bangkok. Don Mueang Airport (DMK) is 23 km from the Grand Palace.
  • Flight time. Bangkok is about 9,600 km from London, with about 11–12 hours of flying time, and about 13,900 km from New York, with about 16–17 hours. A connection adds time.
  • Emergency. In a medical emergency, call 191 and ask for an ambulance.

When to go

  • Weather. Bangkok’s average daytime highs are about 31 °C in September–January and about 35 °C in April–May. May–October are the wettest months, with 100 mm of rain or more.
  • Season. November–February is drier, though still hot, making it the better season for a recovery trip. May–October is harder because of heavy rain, and April–May are especially hot.

Insurance and changes

  • Health insurance. US travelers should make sure their health insurance covers them overseas, as Medicare and Medicaid do not apply overseas. UK travelers cannot use a UK GHIC or EHIC in Thailand.
  • Hospital payment. Hospitals and doctors require payment up front before service or admission. Hospitals in Thailand require a guarantee of payment before treating patients.

Flying home

  • Fit to fly. After an uncomplicated case, you can usually fly home 3–7 days after surgery with your surgeon's approval.
  • Take home. After treatment, take your hospital treatment documents and instructions, including the hospital letter and treatment details used for the stay application.

I was very grateful that the surgeon did not go ahead with the surgery
It’s the Dr. had not done. All the testing they did, I would not have found out that. I had something going on in my leg. That has to be checked when I go home before I can have surgery. I was very grateful that the surgeon did not go ahead with the surgery. That gave me a lot of face in your hospital.

The medical team was polite. I felt at ease because they showed they were professionals. I only wish there had been a Russian-speaking person, of course, so it would have been easier to communicate, but otherwise, everything was great!

the surgeon is very skilled and his stitches are wonderful
The whole process from initial consult to surgery and follow up after care were good. I was very happy the care received from the admin staff and the surgical team. The nurses were so gentle. the surgeon is very skilled and his stitches are wonderful. I would be so happy to undergo further procedures at this clinic. The hotel was also great.
The outcome was great and my surgeries were separated into two - and the bleph was done under local for increased safety and to reduce time under general anesthetic - which is good.
Everything was good no negative feedback

My biggest surprise is the lack of results. Although I am only just beginning my recovery, my skin is already much looser than I expected after such a procedure. The hardest part so far has been the visibility of the bruises, which were very extensive. I have to admit: the staff were decent. However, communication with the surgeon was virtually non-existent, to the extent that I’m not even sure which technique was used. The clinic’s overall organisation was also poor. I would absolutely not recommend this clinic.
