Blepharoplasty Cost: Thailand Prices Beside US, UK and Australian Figures

In the United States, the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) prints an average cost of $3,359 for an upper blepharoplasty and $3,876 for a lower blepharoplasty, excluding anesthesia, operating room facilities and other related expenses. Published hospital prices for eyelid surgery in Thailand include THB 22,500 for upper blepharoplasty at Bangkok Hospital Khon Kaen; at Ekachai Hospital, combined upper and lower surgery under general anesthesia is THB 100,000 with one hospital night.

Those baht prices convert to about $679 and $3,018. Dollars at ฿33.14 = $1 (European Central Bank reference rates, 22 September 2026): divide each baht price by 33.14 and round to the nearest dollar. The conversions are our arithmetic, not a quote; dollar prices printed by a clinic or marketplace are labeled separately.

For a cost comparison, ask each clinic to quote the same eyelids, anesthesia, and hospital stay.

Blepharoplasty Costs at Home and in Thailand

ASPS's average cost is only part of the total price. Moorfields Private's from-price includes consultant professional fees, a post-operative consultation and take-home medication. Bangkok Hospital Headquarter's Thai hospital package includes operating and recovery rooms, supplies, operation medicine, and surgical and anesthesia teams.

Published eyelid surgery prices in Thailand

The figures below for hospitals and clinics come from their own price pages. The agency and marketplace table identifies the company publishing each figure. All prices and offer terms below were read 27 October 2026.

Hospital and clinic prices

Bangkok Hospital Headquarter calls its English package prices fly-in rates and gives an expiry of 31 December 2026. Its eyelid rows are outpatient procedures under local anesthesia. The Bangkok eyelid surgery page covers that city separately.

Bangkok Plastic Surgery Clinic prints its prices in USD: $1,500 for double eyelid fold creation, $1,500 for upper blepharoplasty, and $1,900 for lower blepharoplasty. Ask the clinic to put the anesthesia and stay beside the procedure on its quote.

Yanhee's eyelid procedure page describes its upper blepharoplasty starting at THB 33,500 as a day case with local anesthesia and sedation. Keep that procedure label when requesting a price.

Agency and marketplace prices are not hospital prices

Destination Beauty publishes an agency price list. Medical Departures publishes marketplace listings. Keep those labels on any comparison you make with a hospital's direct quote.

Destination Beauty's THB 49,000 and THB 89,000 general-anesthesia rows appear together on its price list. Send both rows with your inquiry and ask the agency to explain the difference in writing.

Bookimed says most packages include the surgeon and local anesthesia, plus follow-up care, in Bangkok, Phuket, and Pattaya. Its page also describes same-day hotel returns, some packages with one hospital day, and a table showing one to two nights. So ask for the stay and inclusions attached to the offer you select.

What the published price includes, and what it excludes

Bangkok Hospital Headquarter's English package terms include the operating room, recovery room, medical supplies, and medicine for the operation. They also include the surgeon team and anesthesiologist team.

The same terms exclude pre-surgery medical clearance, specialist consultation, pathology, laboratory tests, and other investigations. Special instruments, implants, take-home medicine, and comorbidity costs are extra, as is treatment for conditions or complications. So ask for each applicable extra as a separate line in your quote.

For Rattinan's starting price, ask for the eyelid quote's inclusions in writing. The clinic says its starting rates apply to first-time surgery in patients with standard anatomical structures. Its quote is valid for the period stated in the document, or up to 30 days from issue.

Ask for the total with every inclusion in writing.

For any quote, ask who bills for pre-surgery tests and follow-up appointments. If a return visit or further treatment is needed, what charges would apply? Keep the answers with the written procedure price.

Why eyelid surgery prices differ

Anesthesia and admission change the printed offer at Ekachai. Its combined upper-and-lower row is THB 45,000 to THB 55,000 under local anesthesia, or THB 100,000 under general anesthesia with one night.

Ekachai also prints conflicting surcharge notes. Its English price list adds THB 20,000 for general anesthesia, while its Thai eyelid page adds THB 35,000. The revision notes differ too:

So ask Ekachai to state the final anesthesia and revision charges for your operation. Have it explain how the surcharge note applies to the combined THB 100,000 general-anesthesia row.

At Bangkok Hospital Headquarter, the pages specify different patient groups. The English fly-in package lists THB 60,000 for upper or lower and THB 98,000 for combined surgery. The Thai and expat page lists THB 54,000 and THB 88,000 respectively (translated from Thai).

Both pages give an expiry of 31 December 2026. So ask which patient category applies before comparing the totals. Prices might change, the hospital says.

Upper, lower, and combined blepharoplasty: published price differences

Yanhee lists the same price for upper incision surgery and lower blepharoplasty within each sex category: THB 33,500 female and THB 37,500 male. Correction of upper or lower blepharoplasty done elsewhere is THB 45,500, about $1,373, as a day case.

Bangkok Hospital Headquarter prints THB 60,000 for upper or lower surgery and THB 98,000 for combined surgery. The difference is THB 98,000 minus THB 60,000 = THB 38,000 (our arithmetic). Both packages specify local anesthesia and outpatient care.

Ekachai's list separates more techniques. Its upper-eyelid row for older patients is THB 35,000, while upper-eyelid muscle tightening is THB 40,000. Lower eyelids are THB 30,000, or THB 40,000 with fat transposition or a transconjunctival technique, all under local anesthesia.

Transconjunctival means an incision inside the lower eyelid. The American Society of Plastic Surgeons describes this approach as an option for lower-eyelid surgery, with no skin removed. Ask the surgeon to explain which technique is in the quote.

Rattinan uses one starting row for upper or lower surgery at THB 69,000. PPSI uses a blepharoplasty starting price of THB 30,000. Request an upper, lower, or combined quote under the procedure name you are considering.

What the procedure and recovery information means for a Thailand booking

The NHS says eyelid surgery takes around 45 minutes to two and a half hours. Most people go home the same day and take about two weeks off work.

Ask the clinic for a follow-up schedule before booking accommodation. Which appointments require you to attend in person? Ask when you should return for a check and who to contact after leaving Thailand.

The NHS lists possible problems including blurred or double vision, asymmetry, and noticeable scarring. Ask how any further assessment or treatment would be charged, including care after you return home.

Questions to ask before you compare quotes

Send the same questions to each clinic or agency so the replies can sit beside each other:

• Does the quote cover upper lids, lower lids, double-eyelid creation, or combined surgery? Which technique is priced?
• Is this first-time surgery or correction of an earlier operation? What revision surcharge applies?
• Which anesthesia is included, and does the price include sedation where planned?
• Is the operation outpatient, or does the quote include a hospital night? What room and admission terms apply?
• Are medical clearance, laboratory tests, take-home medicine, and follow-up appointments included? Please price each excluded item.
• Who issued the price: the hospital, clinic, agency, or marketplace? Who will issue the final bill?
• Which patient category applies to me, and how long is the written quote valid?
• What would further treatment cost if a complication or revision required it?

Ask for a revised total if the clinic changes the operation or anesthesia after consultation. Keep the original quote and the replacement together, with the change explained in writing.
