Body Contouring in Thailand: Body Lift, Arm Lift and Thigh Lift Prices (2026)

This guide covers surgical body contouring for excess skin: lower body lift, arm lift and thigh lift. Compare Thai hospitals' and clinics' published prices, admission nights and package inclusions, then settle the operation and follow-up plan before paying a deposit.

When requesting a body-contouring quote, specify whether you're asking about skin-removal surgery or non-surgical treatment. Ask the clinic to name the operation and every body area included.

Clinics cannot pay to be listed or ranked higher on AsiaPatient.

Is this the surgical body contouring you are looking for?

What a body lift, arm lift and thigh lift treat

The American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) describes a body lift as removing excess sagging skin and fat and improving the shape and tone of supporting tissue. It says body lifts aren't intended strictly for excess-fat removal.

ASPS's procedure explanation separates the operations by area:

Wythenshawe Hospital calls a lower body lift a belt lipectomy. Kamol Hospital lists lower, upper and truncal body lifts, using belt lipectomy and 360 body lift as names for its truncal operation.

Ask the surgeon to explain the label on your quote. Have them mark the planned incisions and treated areas on a diagram.

Body lift and tummy tuck are different quoted operations

Chelsea and Westminster Hospital's NHS leaflet describes a body lift as a more extensive operation around the torso, including the abdomen, hips, thighs and buttocks. Ask how that compares with the areas in your proposed tummy tuck.

Ekachai Hospital lists "Extended Abdominoplasty with Belt Lipectomy" separately from "Circumferential Body Lifting." Keep the full operation name when requesting a second quote, and ask what work is included around the back and sides.

Published body contouring prices in Thailand, by exact operation

These hospital and clinic prices, with their stated admission nights and package details, were read 27 October 2026. Each hospital or clinic name links to its own page; prices stay in Thai baht (THB).

PPSI is Phuket Plastic Surgery Institute, at Bangkok Hospital Siriroj in Phuket. Ekachai's printed address is in Samut Sakhon.

The Phuket plastic surgery guide covers hospitals and prices in Phuket.

Yanhee's arm price is for its standard operation. Its thigh-lift page describes groin-crease and vertical medial techniques alongside one price; ask which technique your quote covers.

What the printed prices include, exclude and leave unanswered

What the hospital and clinic pages actually print

Yanhee's arm-lift package includes preoperative tests and postoperative care alongside the surgeon, anesthesia and hospital stay. Its thigh-lift package lists the surgeon, anesthesia and stay.

Both exclude flights and accommodation beyond the hospital stay. Ask which tests, medicines, garments and follow-up appointments the hospital will put in your written quote.

Ekachai prints general anesthesia and admission nights against each operation. Request the remaining inclusion list, including wound care and any appointments after discharge.

For PPSI's belt lipectomy, ask what the starting price includes alongside its stated admission. For its arm lift, request both the admission plan and an itemized price.

Rattinan's starting rates apply to first-time surgery for patients with standard anatomical structures. Ask how your proposed operation affects the price and get its hospital arrangements and aftercare in writing.

Agency packages are a separate product

CosMediTour's Bangkok thigh-lift package is an agency package priced in Australian dollars, read 27 October 2026, with two hospital nights and 11 nights at Montien Hotel Bangkok.

It lists surgeon and anesthetist fees, consultations before and after surgery, daily hotel nurse visits, and airport and hospital transfers. Flights are excluded; the agency says its AUD pricing is subject to exchange-rate changes at final payment.

For a combined operation, Destination Beauty's Bangkok MMO E offer prints tummy tuck plus arm lift at THB 258,000, with approximate AUD 12,221 and NZD 14,246, read 27 October 2026. It is an agency surgery-only offer with four hospital nights, excluding airfare and accommodation.

Keep both operations on any request to match that offer. Ask whether they would happen together or in stages, and request the hotel and transfer costs separately.

Who should discuss a lift with a surgeon, and who should delay travel

ASPS's body-lift description concerns excess sagging skin and fat. If your main goal is weight loss, ask the surgeon whether the operation addresses that goal before discussing travel dates.

Wythenshawe Hospital says its plastic surgeons generally expect weight to have been stable for two years before referral to its service. Ask your Thai surgeon what weight-stability requirements apply to you.

The NHS loose-skin leaflet says this surgery carries risks. Ask the surgeon to explain the risks of your proposed operation and what medical care you would need if a complication occurred.

Before booking travel, ask the surgeon to assess your suitability and recovery plan.

Ask whether your medical history or previous surgery changes the plan, whether information is needed from a clinician at home, and whether you should postpone the trip. Get a clear answer about who will manage follow-up once you return.

From first enquiry to a written surgical plan

Ask for an operation-specific quote

Start your enquiry with the areas you want assessed and the full operation name from the price list you're comparing. Ask the hospital what information it needs for the surgeon to review your case.

ASPS says body contouring is often performed in stages. You might need more than one operation.

Work through the quote in this order:

• Ask which operation and variant the surgeon proposes, with every treated area listed.
• Ask whether the plan involves one operation or stages, and whether each stage needs a separate visit and quote.
• Request the total in THB, with included and excluded items beside it.
• Ask for admission nights, follow-up appointments and any accommodation or transfers as separate items.
• Get the quote's expiry date and the conditions that could change the price.

Rattinan says its quotation lasts for the period specified in the document, or up to 30 days from issue. Yanhee says the actual procedure and price are confirmed after consultation with the doctor.

Consultation, admission and follow-up

At consultation, ask the surgeon to confirm the operation, incisions and whether the proposed stages have changed. Request an updated written price and care plan for that decision.

Yanhee prints two nights for arm lift and thigh lift. Ekachai prints two nights for its arm and medial thigh variants, three for extended abdominoplasty with belt lipectomy, and five for circumferential body lifting.

PPSI's belt-lipectomy admission is five to seven nights. Put hospital admission and any hotel stay on separate lines in your trip plan.

Vejthani and Kamol publish recovery information for excess-skin removal and body lift. Ask for instructions for the operation in your quote:

• When will you review the wounds and remove any stitches?
• When can I return to my work duties, exercise and carrying luggage?
• Where will follow-up happen after discharge, and who answers if I need help once home?

Other service pages can help you direct an enquiry. Samitivej lists body lifts after major weight loss, arm lifts and thigh lifts, with Sukhumvit and Srinakarin locations in Bangkok.

Vejthani lists lower body, arm and thigh lifts, while Wansiri has a body-lift service page. Bangkok Hospital Siriroj lists belt lipectomy, thigh lift and brachioplasty, or arm lift, in Phuket.

For each enquiry, request the operating facility and surgeon's name alongside the proposed operation and price.

Return travel is a surgeon question, not a generic timetable

CosMediTour's body-surgery overview says patients are commonly advised to stay 10 to 14 nights after body surgery. Destination Beauty says major skin-removal and combined-procedure patients typically remain in Thailand about three to four weeks.

These are agency descriptions of time in Thailand. Ask your surgeon how long you should remain nearby, when they will assess your return-travel plans, and which follow-up appointments must happen first.

Ask the seller how additional hotel nights and changed transfers would be charged. Request those terms before paying for the trip.

Questions to ask a hospital before paying anything

• What is the full operation name, which areas are included, and is this one operation or a staged plan?
• Is this a fixed package, a starting price, or a price to be confirmed after consultation?
• Which charges are included or excluded: surgeon, anesthesia, tests, medicines, garments, hospital nights, wound care, follow-up, hotel and transfers?
• How many admission nights apply to this exact variant, and where will each follow-up happen?
• How long is the written quote valid, and what could change the final price?
• What risks, activity restrictions and return-travel assessment apply to my operation?

Frequently asked questions

What is surgical body contouring?

For the lifts covered here, ASPS describes body-lift surgery as removing excess sagging skin and fat and reshaping supporting tissue. Ask whether the proposed treatment involves skin-removal surgery and which areas it covers.

Is body contouring a weight-loss procedure?

ASPS says body lifts aren't intended strictly for excess-fat removal. Discuss your weight goals and loose-skin concerns separately with the surgeon before requesting an operation-specific plan.

What is the difference between a body lift and a tummy tuck?

The NHS leaflet describes a body lift as a more extensive torso operation covering the abdomen, hips, thighs and buttocks. Ekachai lists extended abdominoplasty with belt lipectomy separately from circumferential body lifting; ask the surgeon to compare the areas and incisions proposed for you.

How much does a body lift cost in Thailand?

PPSI lists belt lipectomy from THB 250,000. Ekachai lists extended abdominoplasty with belt lipectomy at THB 300,000 and circumferential body lifting at THB 340,000.

Rattinan lists belt lipectomy from THB 650,000. These hospital and clinic prices were read 27 October 2026; ask for the exact operation and inclusions in writing.

How much do arm lift and thigh lift procedures cost in Thailand?

Yanhee's price list prints arm lift at THB 111,000 and thigh lift at THB 126,000. Ekachai lists arm lift at THB 130,000 and extended arm lift at THB 180,000; its medial thigh lift is THB 180,000 and extended medial thigh lift THB 210,000.

PPSI's arm lift starts at THB 130,000. Rattinan lists arm lift and inner thigh lift from THB 260,000 each; all these prices were read 27 October 2026.

How long is recovery after a body lift?

Ask for separate milestones for work, exercise and follow-up care. ASPS says body contouring is often staged, so ask whether your plan requires more than one operation and recovery period.

How long should I stay in Thailand after a body lift?

PPSI prints five to seven hospital nights for belt lipectomy. Agency guidance differs: CosMediTour describes 10 to 14 nights after body surgery, while Destination Beauty describes about three to four weeks for major skin-removal and combined-procedure patients.

Ask the surgeon for your stay and follow-up plan, including when they will assess your return flight.
