Dr. Pataradon Muangsombut

Dr. Pataradon Muangsombut (Thai: นพ. ภัทรดนย์ เมืองสมบัติ) is a specialist plastic surgeon based in Hat Yai, in Songkhla province in the south of Thailand. Muangsombut Clinic, where he is the clinic doctor, also refers to him by his nickname หมอแม็ค, “Dr. Mac”, so Thai-language pages and messages from the clinic may use that name rather than his full one.

Official listings place him at two facilities in Hat Yai:

• [Muangsombut Clinic (เมืองสมบัติ คลินิก)](/hospital/muangsombut-clinic-hat-yai/) at 79/4-5 ถนนธรรมนูญวิถี, Hat Yai. The clinic lists him as its own doctor (แพทย์ประจำ) and gives his title as ศัลยแพทย์ตกแต่งเฉพาะทาง, specialist plastic surgeon.
• [Bangkok Hospital Hat Yai](/hospital/bangkok-hospital-hat-yai/) at 75 Soi 15, Phetkasem Road, a private hospital whose online doctor directory places Dr. Pataradon in its Surgery Unit on a part-time basis, under the specialty Plastic Surgery.

The one operation an official page attributes to him by name is [chin augmentation](/procedures/chin-augmentation/) with a silicone implant. Muangsombut Clinic’s chin page says that Dr. Mac shapes each chin to suit the structure of the whole face, and that the technique he uses secures the silicone implant to the facial structures in several layers. The clinic’s website describes a wider range of surgery, but those pages do not say who operates, so this profile does not present them as his work (the practice areas section below explains the difference).

Two professional bodies have listed him. ThPRS, which represents Thailand’s plastic and reconstructive surgeons, put up a member entry for him in December 2019 that could still be opened in September 2026. ThSAPS, the Thai society for aesthetic plastic surgeons, named him on the member list it once kept on its old website, which now survives only as a February 2020 archive snapshot; since ThSAPS no longer publishes a list, his present membership there is unconfirmed.

To see him in Hat Yai, send a consultation request for Dr. Pataradon Muangsombut. Our patient team forwards it to his clinic or the hospital, and an appointment exists only once one of them confirms a date. Other surgeons and clinics in the city are listed under Songkhla and Hat Yai in our destinations.

Published detail about Dr. Pataradon’s training is limited. Below is what official pages state, then what none of them state; we have not filled the gaps with guesses.

What official pages state

• Plastic surgery as his qualification. Under “Education”, Bangkok Hospital Hat Yai’s English page, its Thai page and its downloadable PDF profile of him each carry one entry: Plastic Surgery. None of them adds a university or a year.
• Specialist status recognised by the Medical Council. On 17 July 2025 Muangsombut Clinic published an article about the checks to make before choosing cosmetic surgery. In it, the clinic names Dr. Pataradon and gives his Medical Council of Thailand-recognised specialist status as ศัลยแพทย์ตกแต่งเฉพาะทาง (Plastic Surgery), meaning specialist plastic surgeon.
• Licence number. The same article prints his medical licence number, ว. 36283, and the data behind his Bangkok Hospital Hat Yai profile carries that number too.

What no official page states

We found no official page naming his medical school, where he trained in plastic surgery, the year he qualified as a specialist, or any fellowship. A PubMed author search returned no indexed papers under his name. The absence of these details on public pages does not mean the training did not happen; it means no source we could open states it, so this profile does not state it either.

How to check his registration

The licence can be looked up on the Medical Council of Thailand's public register at checkmd.tmc.or.th, and our patient team can help you confirm it before you travel. Anyone can run the same search: enter his Thai name, ภัทรดนย์ เมืองสมบัติ, and see whether the entry matches licence number 36283 as printed by Muangsombut Clinic. As a general point, a licence to practise medicine and recognition as a specialist in plastic surgery are separate things, and someone planning a chin implant in Hat Yai can reasonably ask to see evidence of both. The dates and sources behind each check on this page follow our provider research methodology.

Muangsombut Clinic (เมืองสมบัติ คลินิก)

On the clinic’s doctors page, Dr. Pataradon appears under the heading แพทย์ประจำ, which marks him as the clinic’s own doctor; the Thai term has nothing to do with residency training. His portrait sits above his name there, with the description specialist plastic surgeon, and the clinic lists no other surgeon. The same page shows a second doctor with the Muangsombut surname, พญ.ภชาภร เมืองสมบัติ. She is a different person, and the clinic states no family link, so asking for Dr. Pataradon, or Dr. Mac, by name avoids a mix-up.

The clinic’s pages describe consultations covering plastic surgery, aesthetics, laser and skin tightening. We have no accreditation on record for the clinic.

Bangkok Hospital Hat Yai

In the hospital’s doctor directory, Dr. Pataradon is a part-time member of the Surgery Unit with Plastic Surgery as his specialty. His profile is attached to five of the hospital’s clinics: the Breast Clinic, the Minimally Invasive Laparoscopic Surgery Center, the Plastic Surgery Clinic, the general Surgery Clinic and the Hand & Microsurgery Clinic. Those links are directory entries only; the hospital names no specific operation he performs in any of them. His hospital profile ties him to Hat Yai alone, with no other hospital in the Bangkok Hospital group shown.

According to the hospital, its Plastic Surgery Clinic takes reconstructive and cosmetic cases alike. On the reconstructive side it mentions correcting congenital defects and irregular facial features, treating people injured by fire or scalding liquids, and repairing facial wounds and fractured facial bones caused by accidents; for cosmetic work it points to operations on the face, chest and abdomen. Its description of the care team covers specialist surgeons, anaesthesiologists, nurses and doctors from other disciplines, internal medicine among them; it adds that nurses coach patients on self-care for the period after discharge, and that one inpatient ward is reserved for post-operative recovery. The Healthcare Accreditation Institute (HA Thailand) lists the hospital as re-accredited at standard level, with the award dated 22 July 2025 and validity to 21 July 2028.

Being part-time, he is at the hospital only on certain days. When our team passes on your request, we ask the hospital which of his days fit your trip.

Hat Yai Hospital (address on his 2019 society entry)

When his ThPRS entry was posted in December 2019, it gave two workplace addresses: Muangsombut Clinic, and the Department of Surgery (ภาคศัลยศาสตร์) at Hat Yai Hospital (โรงพยาบาลหาดใหญ่). The entry gives an address only, with no position attached. Ask our patient team about any present link between him and Hat Yai Hospital; we do not offer it as a place to book him.

Not documented

No published source gives the number of years he has practised, a count of operations he has performed, or the dates he started at the clinic or the hospital.

This section keeps three things apart: the procedure an official page attributes to him, services his clinic advertises without naming a surgeon, and general guidance from our own procedure pages.

Chin augmentation with a silicone implant (documented)

Muangsombut Clinic’s chin augmentation page (เสริมคาง) is the only official page that ties a named operation to Dr. Pataradon. It makes two points about his approach:

• He designs the chin for each patient in relation to the overall structure of the face, rather than as a stand-alone feature.
• The technique he chooses fixes the silicone chin implant to the facial structures in several layers.

In general, chin augmentation with an implant adds projection or length to a chin that looks small or set back, most noticeably in profile. What the clinic’s description suggests for you as a patient is that the assessment is likely to look at the whole face, including the nose, lips and jawline, before an implant shape and size is chosen. It is reasonable to ask him to explain in plain terms what the layered fixation involves and what it is meant to prevent.

Patients usually also want to know whether an implant is the right tool at all. A chin that is too long or too prominent calls for a different operation (chin reduction), and some chin and jaw shapes are addressed by reshaping bone, as in genioplasty or jaw contouring. None of these is documented for Dr. Pataradon, so if his assessment points that way, ask whether he performs the alternative himself or would refer you to another surgeon.

In general, the risks surgeons discuss for chin implants include infection, the implant shifting or sitting unevenly, altered sensation in the lower lip or chin, an implant edge that can be seen or felt, and the possibility that the implant has to be adjusted, replaced or removed later. How these apply to you depends on your health and anatomy, so ask him to go through them for your case. He can judge whether an implant is right for you only after an in-person assessment.

As general guidance, our chin augmentation guide puts a typical stay in Thailand at about 5–7 days, including a post-operative check before you leave, with the flight home booked only once the surgeon has cleared you. Healing varies from person to person, so a flexible ticket is sensible.

Services on the Muangsombut Clinic website (not attributed to him)

Muangsombut Clinic’s website has surgery pages for blepharoplasty, double eyelid surgery, lower eyelid surgery, ptosis correction, rhinoplasty, alar base reduction, buccal fat removal, breast augmentation and Body-jet liposuction. Those pages describe the clinic’s services without naming the operating surgeon. Dr. Pataradon is the only surgeon the clinic lists, but a service page is not a statement of who operates, so we have not added these to his documented procedures. If one of them interests you, ask through our team who would perform it and where, and ask for the surgeon’s name in writing.

Surgery at Bangkok Hospital Hat Yai

His hospital profile connects him with the Plastic Surgery, Breast, Hand & Microsurgery, Surgery and Minimally Invasive Laparoscopic Surgery clinics, yet names no operations for him. If your question concerns reconstructive or hand surgery rather than a cosmetic procedure, send your medical reports with the request so the hospital can say whether he, or another of its surgeons, is the right person to see.

Gender-affirming surgery

No official source links Dr. Pataradon to gender-affirming surgery. For those procedures, see our gender-affirming surgery section.

A consultation is where a general idea becomes a plan for your face. These questions follow from what his clinic and hospital publish, and from what they leave out.

About him and where the operation happens

• Will you personally perform my operation from start to finish?
• Will it take place at Muangsombut Clinic or at Bangkok Hospital Hat Yai, and why that setting for my case?
• For a chin implant, do you operate under local anaesthetic with sedation or under general anaesthesia, and is an anaesthesiologist present throughout?
• If I need extra care or an unplanned overnight stay, where does that happen?

About the implant and the design

• How do you decide the shape and size of the implant for my face?
• What does fixing the implant in several layers involve, and what is it meant to prevent?
• Which implant will you use (material, manufacturer and model), and will I get those details in writing for my records?
• Where will the incision be, and where will the scar sit?
• Would my nose, lips or jaw change how the chin looks afterwards, and would you suggest treating anything else instead of, or as well as, the chin?
• Is an implant the right option for my anatomy, or would a bone procedure suit me better?

About recovery and follow-up

• On which day after surgery do you check the chin, and on which day could I expect to be cleared for the flight home?
• What should I avoid while healing, and which signs mean I should contact you straight away?
• After I leave Hat Yai, whom do I message with a question, and can my operation notes and implant details be written in English for my doctor at home?
• If the implant moves, becomes infected or I am unhappy with the shape, what happens next and what does it cost?

About the quote

Ask for a written, itemised quote covering the surgeon’s fee, anaesthesia, the operating room, the implant (with its brand and type), any hospital night, pre-operative tests, medication, follow-up visits and the cost of treating a complication or a revision. We have not recorded a published price for chin augmentation with him at either facility, so a written quote from the clinic or the hospital is the only figure to rely on.

If you would rather talk before travelling, you can ask for an online consultation when you send your request. Neither the clinic nor the hospital says whether Dr. Pataradon consults remotely, so we put that question to them when we forward your request.

Support for overseas patients differs between his two workplaces. Everything in the first list below comes from Bangkok Hospital Hat Yai’s own pages and applies to patients treated there; Muangsombut Clinic has not published an equivalent.

At Bangkok Hospital Hat Yai

Through what the hospital calls its International Patient Advocate Program (IPAP), each overseas patient treated there is matched with a single advocate, who remains the point of contact from the first enquiry to the journey home. Among the services the hospital describes:

• before you travel, a free e-mail consultation and medical advice, with a proposed treatment plan and a first cost estimate drawn from the specialist’s recommendation;
• interpreting and translation, with Thai, English, Malay (Bahasa Melayu) and Chinese among the languages named on its pages;
• support with Thai visa questions, health cover and coordination with overseas insurance companies, plus dealings with embassies and international organisations on a patient’s behalf;
• on departure, medical reports and fit-to-fly paperwork;
• vegetarian, Western or Muslim meals, a halal-certified place to eat inside the hospital, and rooms set aside for Muslim prayer;
• transfers to and from the airport, hotel arrangements, and a staffed hospital van for pick-ups from the airport (Hat Yai International), the railway and bus stations in town, and Sadao Immigration;
• payment by MasterCard, Visa or American Express, or through an online payment service.

For a chin implant, the e-mail pre-arrival consultation can give you an early view from the hospital before you book flights, but any plan made from photos stays provisional until the surgeon examines you in person.

At Muangsombut Clinic

We found no interpreter, transfer or language service published by the clinic. If you want to be treated there, ask in advance which languages the consultation can be held in, and whether you should bring your own interpreter.

Languages

Which languages Dr. Pataradon himself speaks is not stated on either official profile; the hospital’s language list refers to its interpreting service. If you need English, Malay, Chinese or another language, say so when you send the request for Dr. Pataradon, and our team will raise it with his clinic or the hospital.

Planning the trip

Take the stay length in our chin augmentation guide (see the practice areas section above) as a starting point, and leave room for the surgeon to change it. The trip normally has to fit the consultation and pre-operative tests, surgery once he confirms you are a suitable candidate, a wound check, and a return flight only after he agrees you can fly. Confirm before you travel whether the post-operative check will be at the clinic or the hospital, and who answers if a problem appears after you have left Hat Yai. Our Songkhla and Hat Yai page covers the wider area.

Gather the details below before you ask for a consultation with Dr. Pataradon. Hold back medical records and photos until his Hat Yai team requests them; at that point, upload them with your booking form or send them over our WhatsApp line, not by other routes.

For a chin augmentation enquiry

• A sentence or two on what you want to change: for example, a chin that looks small or set back in profile, or one that looks uneven.
• Whether you are also considering changes to your nose or jawline, since his clinic describes designing the chin around the whole face.
• Any previous surgery, implant or filler in the chin, jaw or nose, with dates and product names if you have them, plus operation notes or implant records.
• Dental or bite history that could matter, such as orthodontic treatment that is under way or planned.

Photos, if requested

• Front view, both side profiles and both three-quarter views, taken at eye level with a neutral expression and relaxed lips.
• A plain background and even light, hair tied back, and no make-up, filters or editing.
• If you have a picture of a chin shape you like, you can include it as a reference; he can tell you whether it suits your face.

Medical history

• Health conditions, including anything that affects bleeding, healing or anaesthesia.
• Current medicines and supplements, especially blood thinners.
• Allergies, including to medicines, latex or dressings.
• Smoking or vaping, and any previous problem with anaesthesia.

Practical details

• When you plan to travel, and whether an online consultation should come first.
• Your preferred facility (the clinic or the hospital), if you have one.
• The language you would like to use for the consultation.
• Your list of questions, so our team can pass them on in advance.
