Phuket Plastic Surgery Institute

Phuket Plastic Surgery Institute (PPSI) is based at Bangkok Hospital Siriroj, a JCI-accredited hospital on Chalermprakiat Ror 9 Road in Wichit. For anyone considering plastic surgery in Phuket, PPSI brings facial, breast, body, intimate and skin surgery together under one team of eight doctors, and patients are looked after in Thai, English, Chinese, Russian, French and German.

PPSI describes plastic surgery as more than a change of appearance. The institute’s aim is to enhance the natural features of the face and body, so that the outcome still looks like the person who walked in.

Because no two faces or bodies are alike, planning starts with the patient rather than the procedure. The surgeon looks at facial and body structure, at what the patient wants, and at their aesthetic goals, then recommends an approach that suits that combination.

Facial rejuvenation shows how this works in practice. Before a face or neck lift, the surgeon assesses the structure of the face and the degree of skin laxity in detail, and chooses the technique accordingly. From the first consultation through surgery to follow-up, PPSI places its emphasis on patient safety, surgical precision and attentive care at every stage.

The institute groups its work into five areas.

• Facial surgery: face and neck lift, rhinoplasty and eyelid surgery.
• Breast surgery: breast augmentation, breast lift with implants, breast reduction, nipple and areola surgery, male breast reduction (gynaecomastia surgery), mastectomy and preventive mastectomy.
• Body contouring and fat surgery: liposuction, including VASER liposuction, fat grafting (lipofilling), tummy tuck, body contouring and sleeve gastrectomy.
• Intimate and gender-affirming surgery: female genital cosmetic surgery and gender-affirming surgery.
• Skin and reconstructive surgery: dermatology and the surgical removal of skin lesions.

Among the team’s individual specialities are also hair transplantation and anti-ageing medicine.

A consultation is the starting point for every procedure. It is where the surgeon assesses your face or body, discusses what you hope to achieve and explains which technique would be suitable. The PPSI office is open from 08:00 to 16:00 and can be reached by phone, email, LINE or WhatsApp. Full details are in the contact box below, and more information is available on the institute’s website, phuketpsi.com.
