Understanding Six-Pack Surgery

Six-pack surgery involves using liposuction to remove fat around the muscle contours to create the appearance of a more defined abdominal region. This procedure is ideal for individuals who are already relatively fit but wish to achieve a more toned and defined look. However, it's essential to understand that this is not a weight-loss surgery. Instead, it enhances the definition of your abs. It is also crucial to maintain a healthy diet and regular exercise regimen to maintain the results post-surgery.

Preparing for Six-Pack Surgery

Preparing for six-pack surgery is not much different from getting ready for other types of cosmetic surgery. A healthy lifestyle is recommended before the surgery. You might be asked to stop certain medications, smoking, and alcohol consumption before the surgery. Detailed instructions would be provided by your surgeon.

Choosing the right medical facility and surgeon is an important aspect of your preparation. Thailand offers a wide array of experienced surgeons and state-of-the-art facilities for six-pack surgery. Make sure you choose a surgeon who is board-certified and has extensive experience in six-pack surgery.

The Six-Pack Surgery Procedure

The six-pack surgery procedure involves making small incisions in the belly through which a cannula (a small tube) is inserted. The cannula is then moved back and forth to dislodge the fat, which is then suctioned out of the body. This is done around the natural muscular contours of the abdomen, enhancing the visibility of the abdominal muscles. The procedure typically takes about one to two hours.

Recovery from Six-Pack Surgery

After six-pack surgery, patients can expect a recovery time of around 1-2 weeks, with the full result visible after swelling has completely subsided, which may take several weeks to a few months. It is important to wear a compression garment for a few weeks post-surgery to help reduce swelling and maintain the new abdominal contour. Patients should avoid strenuous activity for about three to four weeks post-surgery, but walking is encouraged to promote blood circulation.

Regarding when you can fly home post-surgery, it's usually recommended to wait at least 7-10 days before taking a long flight. This is to reduce the risk of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a potential complication of surgery. However, your surgeon will provide the best advice tailored to your individual case.

The Costs of Six-Pack Surgery

The cost of six-pack surgery in Thailand is generally lower compared to western countries. Typically, the cost ranges from $2,500 to $5,000. However, the cost can vary depending on factors like the surgeon's experience, the hospital or clinic where the procedure is performed, and the complexity of the procedure. It's important to note that these costs do not cover travel and accommodation expenses.

Emergency operation and post-surgery checkup

"I live in New Zealand, and my partner and I went on a holiday in Laos (Asia). I became sick and needed an emergency stomach operation. I reached out to this company, and they have been nothing but helpful.

They helped us with translating in Laos; they organised a taxi driver who was waiting for us at arrival and drove us to the hospital, where they organised a scan for me. I only needed to show my passport and an email when I arrived. I was already in the system for the appointment.

Everything went really smoothly. The company is professional and reliable, and the staff is super friendly too. I would highly recommend this company. I am grateful for the great service this company offered when I was in need."

Khun Pam Van Wissen organised me in no time all appointments at Bumrungrad Hospital in Bangkok which has distinguished itself through excellent service. I would like to say thank you to all staff, nurses and especially to Dr. Keerati Pungpapong who all did an absolutely excellent job and I felt from the first moment in best hands. Thank you again Khun Pam from Konkai Health for a great job.

Sex Reassignment Surgery

I am very happy with the results. I cannot thank the people at Asia Cosmetic Hospital enough for their help and service while I was in the hospital and my stay at the hotel. I feel fine with very little if any pain and I am bringing my strength back up to before surgery.  I know it will take many months for everything to heal but right now I feel strong both physical and mentally.

Thank you Konkai for all the work on your part to bring this all together for me. You don’t know what this means to me.
