Dr. Ratthasak Loyvirat: plastic surgeon at Bangkok Hospital Pattaya
Bangkok Hospital Pattaya lists Dr. Ratthasak Loyvirat among the plastic surgeons on the staff of its Dermatology and Plastic Surgery Center. The hospital, Bangkok Hospital Pattaya, is a private facility at Km. 143 on Sukhumvit Road in Banglamung, Chonburi, close to Pattaya. The specialty line there is Plastic Surgery and Surgery, and the languages shown are English and Thai.
Each personal detail below was taken from the hospital's official doctor page as it stood on 2 October 2026. That page is short, and where it says little, so do we. It does not name individual operations, areas of special interest, society memberships, publications or a personal biography. We have therefore not attributed any of those to him, and where a patient might reasonably want such detail, we say plainly that it is not public instead of filling the gap.
If you are weighing surgery in the Pattaya area and want to know whether he is the right person to assess your case, the simplest route is to send a consultation request; our team will then put your goals to the hospital and ask whether they fall within his work. Surgeons in general are vetted as described under provider research methodology.

The hospital profile gives four education entries, every one of them at Prince of Songkla University in Thailand:
- 1993: Doctor of Medicine
- 1997: Surgery
- 2002: Plastic Surgery
- 2004: Family Medicine
Each entry is shown only as a year, a discipline and the university. The page does not call any of them a residency, fellowship or board certification, and it does not say whether the later lines are formal specialist training or additional study. We therefore repeat them as listed and attach no labels the source itself does not use.
Taken in order, the entries run from the medical degree through surgery to plastic surgery. What they cannot tell us is which specialist certificate he holds, for example one issued through a Thai plastic surgery professional society. We have no membership recorded for him, and our research did not search the society member lists, so the absence of a membership here proves nothing in either direction.
Licence. The hospital profile prints a Thai medical licence number for him. 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 who wants to verify a doctor in Thailand can ask our patient team to request confirmation of the licence and of specialist certification while the consultation is being arranged.
Professional experience
Our research found a single post for him: his present one on the plastic surgery side of the plastic-surgery arm of the hospital's dermatology and aesthetic centre. Neither a start date nor an earlier workplace appears, there is no academic or leadership title, and the number of years he has practised is not given. We estimate none of it.
The qualification years on the profile run from 1993 to 2004. They show when each listed step was recorded, which is a different thing from surgical experience, and we do not turn them into a statement about how much he operates. Practical questions, such as how often he performs a given operation or what his own patients typically experience afterwards, are not answered by a public profile. Raise them with him directly when you meet.
Plastic surgery areas at his centre, and what is not documented for him personally
Two different kinds of information need to be kept apart here. The hospital publishes a list of treatments for the Dermatology and Plastic Surgery Center as a whole, whereas his own profile names a specialty and no operations. For that reason we do not say that Dr. Ratthasak personally carries out any particular procedure. Ask our patient team to confirm it for your own request.
The hospital's centre page lists the following, each linked to our general guide so that you can prepare your questions:
- Facelift
- Blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery)
- Alar base reduction
- Breast augmentation
- Breast lift
- Breast reduction
- Liposuction
- Tummy tuck
The same page also mentions hair transplantation by the FUE technique and surgery for skin cancer. According to the hospital, dermatology is on the first floor of D building and plastic surgery on the second floor.
Reading the list sensibly. In general, a centre's list shows what the department offers, and the surgeon who treats you is chosen case by case. When you submit a request, name the operation you are thinking about and ask our patient team to find out whether Dr. Ratthasak is the surgeon who would assess you for it. If a colleague in the same centre suits your case better, you should hear that before you plan any travel.
Questions to bring to a consultation
The same core questions apply whichever operation you are considering. In general, patients are encouraged to raise the following and to expect clear answers.
- Is this operation right for me? Ask the surgeon to describe how your anatomy, skin quality and health history affect the plan, and what range of outcomes is realistic for you. Suitability is only established after an individual assessment.
- What will actually be done? Ask about the incision pattern, the technique, whether implants or grafts are used, and whether anything else would be done in the same session.
- Who is responsible for each stage? Confirm the operating surgeon, the anaesthetist, and the person you will see for check-ups afterwards.
- Which risks matter in my case? Every operation has risks such as infection, bleeding, scarring, asymmetry and the chance that a second procedure is needed. Ask which matter most given your health and the planned operation.
- How will recovery go? Our procedure pages describe recovery in general terms; your surgeon should tell you how that applies to you and when it is safe to fly home.
- What happens if something goes wrong? Ask where a complication would be managed and how follow-up works after you have flown home.
Write your questions down before you go. If you take regular medication, smoke, have had earlier surgery or live with a long-term condition, say so at the start, because any of these can change both the advice and the timing.

International patients
His own profile shows English and Thai, so patients who prefer to talk through their plans in English have a documented starting point. We have no record of any other language for him personally.
The hospital separately states that its International Service Center works with interpreters in more than 20 languages, including Arabic, Chinese, German, Japanese, Korean, Russian and Spanish. For visitors from abroad it describes the following help:
- booking appointments in advance, plus worldwide insurance assistance
- repatriation, hotel reservations, embassy liaison and immigration services
- pick-up at the airport by hospital staff to a hotel the hospital designates, then registration assistance and accompaniment to the relevant department
- a hotel call service, available round the clock, through which a doctor can visit you in your room
These are the hospital's own descriptions, and offerings are revised from time to time, so have our patient team check what applies on your dates. Its stated capacity is 400 beds. We have no accreditation on record for it, and therefore state none.
Getting there. The hospital gives its address as 301 Moo 6, Sukhumvit Road, Km. 143, Banglamung, Chonburi 20150. Its plastic surgery department is shown as open every day of the week, opening at 8 in the morning and closing at 5 in the afternoon, so schedule visits within those hours.

How to request a consultation with Dr. Ratthasak Loyvirat
ThaiCosmeticSurgery.com arranges consultations and is not a clinic itself. A request does not secure a slot by itself, because our patient team confirms each one with the hospital.
- Fill in the consultation request form, giving the procedure you are interested in and the weeks you could travel.
- Our patient team asks Bangkok Hospital Pattaya whether Dr. Ratthasak is the appropriate surgeon for that request and whether he has space in his schedule.
- You then receive either a confirmation or a suggested alternative. If another surgeon in the centre looks like a closer match, we tell you.
- You decide at your own pace. Nothing obliges you to proceed, and no appointment exists until the team has confirmed it with you.
Before you submit, you may want to read about the hospital itself on its Bangkok Hospital Pattaya page, and to return to the surgeon's overview at Dr. Ratthasak Loyvirat.
A request is not a confirmed appointment until our patient team confirms it with you.
What to send before a consultation
Organised information lets the hospital judge your request faster. In general, include the following with your submission.
- Your goal in a few lines, and any operation you have already researched.
- Recent photographs against a plain wall with even lighting. Face: front and side views. Body or breasts: front, side and back views, wearing underwear or a plain covering that shows the area clearly.
- Height and weight, since they influence which options are suitable and how safe some operations are, liposuction and tummy tuck among them.
- Medical history: allergies, medication, previous operations, long-term conditions, nicotine use, and any personal or family history of clotting or bleeding problems.
- Earlier cosmetic treatment, such as implants, fillers or prior surgery, noting when and where each was done.
- Your travel window and the longest absence from home that is realistic, because recovery before flying differs between procedures.
Share only the material you are happy to provide. Photos are used for the consultation and handled by our patient team. Never put payment details into the request form.
