Common Cosmetic Surgery Procedures in Thailand

Getting the vocabulary right

Common expressions like 'face lift' are helpful, because they are easy to understand. Their disadvantage is that not all of tehm are understood the same way by everybody. That's why the latin expressions medical professionals use also have their usefulnes. They tend to be better defined. So, when information is provided by medical professionals, they tend to use the latin names for procedures. So for everybody who needs to communicate about procedures or is trying to find information on the Internet about them it is best to know both names.

Although this website is not about medical advice or detailed information about reconstructive or cosmetic surgery procedures, we provide links to more detailed information on authorative sites.
