Dr. Sattha Siritantikorn

Dr. Sattha Siritantikorn (Thai: นพ. ศรัทธา ศิริตันติกร) is a Bangkok plastic surgeon. The one practice we can confirm for him today is the Plastic Surgery Center inside Bumrungrad International Hospital, a privately run hospital off lower Sukhumvit Road in Wattana district (Soi 3, also called Soi Nana Nua). On the hospital's English site he is filed under 'Plastic Cosmetic & Reconstructive Surgery', while his Thai-language profile names his specialty as ศัลยศาสตร์ตกแต่ง, plastic surgery. His medical degree comes from Chulalongkorn University, awarded in 1987, and his specialist qualification, dated 1994 on the profile, is the Thai Board diploma in plastic surgery.

His Bumrungrad profile lists 17 'Special Clinical Interests' spread across the face, the breast and the body. Ten of those entries name an operation clearly enough to match our procedure guides, so this page links him to: facelift and neck lift; eyelid surgery; rhinoplasty, including augmentation of a low nasal bridge (Asian rhinoplasty); otoplasty; breast augmentation, breast lift and breast reduction; gynecomastia surgery; and tummy tuck. The other entries, such as 'Body Contouring', 'Gluteal Enlargement (Buttock Augmentation)' and 'Sex Reassignment Surgery', do not say which operation is meant. We explain them further down instead of turning them into claims.

Two professional society listings name him. He appears by name, in Thai and English, on the online member register of ThPRS, Thailand's professional body for plastic and reconstructive surgeons; ThSAPS, the aesthetic plastic surgeons' society, carried him in the online surgeon directory it used to run, which we could read only in archived copies up to 2020. For languages, his Bumrungrad profile names Thai and English.

Appointments with Dr. Sattha start with a consultation request: our patient team takes it to Bumrungrad, writes back once a date is fixed there, and holds nothing in your name before that. Each fact about him on this page is taken from a source we opened and dated (how we research providers), and where a detail patients would reasonably want is missing from those sources, this page points that out instead of filling the gap.

Medical degree, Chulalongkorn University (1987). Dr. Sattha holds the Doctor of Medicine degree (แพทยศาสตรบัณฑิต) of Chulalongkorn University's Faculty of Medicine in Bangkok. His English Bumrungrad profile gives the year as 1987; the Thai profile gives the Buddhist-era year 2530, which is the same year.

Plastic surgery training at Chulalongkorn. Chulalongkorn's medical faculty has a plastic and reconstructive surgery division whose alumni pages place him in class (รุ่นที่) 9, the same class as Apichai Angspatt. The page does not say what form his training there took or which years it covered, so we describe it simply as training in the division and do not label it a residency or a fellowship.

Thai Board diploma in plastic surgery (1994). His Bumrungrad profile records his Thai Board of Plastic Surgery diploma (in Thai, วุฒิบัตร สาขาศัลยศาสตร์ตกแต่ง), issued in 1994, which is 2537 in the Thai calendar. This is Thailand's specialist certificate in plastic surgery. No other board certificate appears on any official page we read, and no training outside Thailand is listed.

What is not published. Bumrungrad's profile leaves its 'Medical Experience' and 'Research & Publications' sections empty. A PubMed author search on his family name returned papers by other researchers who share the surname, none by him, so we list no publications. No case numbers or years-in-practice figure are published, and we do not estimate either.

Licence check. Our attempt to verify his medical licence took place on 27 September 2026, using checkmd.tmc.or.th, the doctors' register run online by the Medical Council of Thailand. 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. On his ThPRS entry, the space for a licence number holds only a dash. You can run the name search on the register yourself, and asking the hospital for his licence number before surgery is a reasonable request.

Current: Bumrungrad International Hospital. Bumrungrad's profile places Dr. Sattha in its Plastic Surgery Center and gives his location as 'Building A 16A', that is, the sixteenth floor of the hospital's Building A. On 27 September 2026 the profile showed two outpatient sessions for him: Thursday from 13:00 to 15:00 and Sunday from 11:00 to 15:00. The centre's own opening hours are wider (from 8.30 until 20.00 Monday–Friday, and from 8.00 until 17.00 at weekends, with every doctor consultation by appointment), yet an appointment with Dr. Sattha still depends on his own sessions or on another slot the hospital arranges. Because schedules are revised from time to time, our patient team checks the current times whenever you ask.

Earlier listings: Piyavate Hospital. Two society directories give his practice address as the plastic surgery department (แผนกศัลยศาสตร์ตกแต่ง) of Piyavate Hospital on Rama 9 Road, Huai Khwang, Bangkok: the ThPRS entry for him, dated November 2019, and his entry in the former ThSAPS surgeon directory, last edited in December 2009. His Chulalongkorn alumni page gives the same address. Piyavate's current online doctor directory does not list him under plastic surgery (re-checked on 27 September 2026), so this may be a former affiliation. We do not list Piyavate as a place where he currently operates.

Earlier listings: Preecha Aesthetic Institute (PAI). PAI's Thai-language 'About' page, archived between 2012 and 2022, named him among the surgeons of its plastic surgery clinic. That page is no longer online, and PAI's current doctors page lists five surgeons, not including him. We treat this as a past association only.

What this means for you. When you ask us about Dr. Sattha, we arrange the consultation at Bumrungrad. If you have seen him somewhere else recently, or hold an appointment letter from another hospital, tell us and we will check with that hospital rather than assume.

Each procedure in this section is linked to Dr. Sattha because Bumrungrad names it, in the hospital's own wording, in his list of 'Special Clinical Interests'. That list is all there is: it does not describe his techniques, his preferred implants or grafts, or how often he performs each operation. The notes under each heading summarise our general procedure guides so you know what to raise with him; his assessment of your own case comes first, and suitability for any of these operations is something only an in-person examination by him can settle.

Facelift and neck lift

His profile lists 'Face Lift' and 'Neck Lifts', alongside the broader heading 'Facial Cosmetic Surgery'. Our facelift guide describes an operation that raises the sagging layers beneath the skin of the jawline, lower cheeks and neck, then trims the skin left over; the usual reasons people consider it are jowls, a softened jawline and loose skin under the chin. A neck lift addresses loose skin and muscle bands below the jaw and many patients have it in the same operation as a facelift. The forehead, the eyelids and fine surface wrinkles are outside what either operation changes. Surgeons choose between approaches such as the SMAS facelift, the deep plane facelift and the mini facelift; Dr. Sattha's profile is silent on which he favours, so ask what he proposes for your face and his reasons. In our facelift guide, patients are either put under general anaesthesia or given IV sedation, the hospital stay tends to be a night or two, and most visitors spend 10–14 days in Thailand overall. Among the recognised risks is a haematoma, where blood pools beneath the lifted skin; smokers also face a higher chance of poor wound healing, so if you smoke, ask Dr. Sattha how far ahead of the operation he wants you to quit.

Eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty)

'Eyelid Surgery' appears on his list with no further detail, so which lids he operates on, and whether that includes double eyelid work, is a point to settle at the consultation. In general, upper eyelid surgery takes away hooding skin, with or without a little fat, and in some people it clears lids that sag into the line of sight; puffiness below the eyes is the target of lower eyelid surgery, where fat is taken out or shifted; and a new or altered upper-lid fold is the aim of double eyelid surgery. If the lid margin itself droops (ptosis), the muscle that raises the lid has to be repaired, which is a different operation, and if a low brow is behind the heaviness, a brow lift may be the better choice. According to our blepharoplasty guide, most eyelid operations need no overnight stay and are often performed under local anaesthesia with sedation; the stitches typically come out after 5–7 days, and overseas patients usually leave Thailand around then. Before Dr. Sattha plans anything, he needs to know about glaucoma, dryness or irritation of the eyes, thyroid-related eye changes and any sight problem, because each of these affects what can safely be done.

Rhinoplasty: augmentation and reduction

The profile lists 'Rhinoplasty (Augment, Reduction)', which covers both directions of change. Reduction rhinoplasty takes down a hump, slims the nose or refines the tip. Augmentation, which our guides cover under Asian rhinoplasty, builds up a flat bridge or makes the tip stand out more, with either cartilage taken from your own body (septum, ear or rib) or a synthetic implant, with silicone and ePTFE the usual materials. Rib or septal cartilage and synthetic implants each carry their own balance of infection risk, firmness to the touch and long-term stability, and Dr. Sattha can explain which balance he would choose for your nose. Our rhinoplasty guide gives the usual pattern: a general anaesthetic, removal of the outer splint (with any stitches) anywhere between the fifth and tenth day, a trip of 7–10 days for most overseas patients, and a nasal tip that may keep settling for a year or longer. His profile does not mention revision rhinoplasty or septorhinoplasty for breathing, so raise either directly if it applies to you, and anyone with a previous nose operation should ask him how much healing time he wants before operating again.

Otoplasty (ear surgery)

Dr. Sattha's list includes 'Otoplasty' on its own, without detail. Our otoplasty guide explains that the operation usually pins prominent ears back or corrects their folds, using an incision tucked into the fold where the ear joins the scalp, so the scar is out of view. Adults are mostly treated under local anaesthesia, whereas children generally need a general anaesthetic; whether he operates on children is not stated, so ask if you are enquiring for a child. For several weeks afterwards a soft band is commonly worn around the head at night to guard the new ear position, and visitors from abroad typically spend 5–7 days in Thailand before flying home.

Breast augmentation, breast lift and breast reduction

Under the broader heading 'Breast Surgery', his profile names 'Breast Augmentation', 'Breast Lift' and 'Breast Reduction'. In general:

• Breast augmentation makes the breasts larger or corrects a size difference between them, most often with a silicone or saline implant, and in some cases with the patient's own fat moved by liposuction. An augmentation on its own does not correct sagging. Expect that an implant may one day need exchanging or taking out, and note that a rare lymphoma called BIA-ALCL has been associated with some textured implant surfaces; ask him which type, surface and pocket he would suggest for you, and why. International patients commonly stay 7–10 days.
• A breast lift (mastopexy) moves the nipple higher and tightens the breast by removing stretched skin; the greater the lift, the longer the scars tend to be. When an implant is placed during the same lift, the operation becomes more complex and the chance of a later revision rises compared with either procedure done separately, so find out whether he would combine them or stage them. Plan on 10–14 days in Thailand, going by our guide.
• A breast reduction reduces the size and weight of the breasts by removing tissue, fat and skin; neck, back and shoulder pain are common reasons for it alongside appearance. As general guidance it involves one or two nights as an inpatient and roughly 10–14 days in Thailand. Ask him how it may affect nipple sensation and your ability to breastfeed later.

Gynecomastia surgery

'Male Breast (Gynecomastia)' is on his list. Our gynecomastia surgery guide describes flattening an enlarged male chest with liposuction, excision of the gland, or a combination; firm glandular tissue usually has to be excised. Because gynecomastia can be linked to medicines, hormonal conditions, anabolic steroids, alcohol or weight gain, those causes should be checked before surgery. Our guide notes that most men wear a compression vest for several weeks, that gym work involving the chest is usually put off for 4–6 weeks, and that visitors commonly plan 7–10 days in Thailand.

Tummy tuck (abdominoplasty)

His profile uses the wording 'Tummy Tuck (Abdominal Lipectomy)'. As general guidance, a tummy tuck removes the loose skin and fatty tissue of the lower belly and, in most cases, tightens stretched or separated abdominal muscles (diastasis recti) as well. It is a contouring operation rather than a way to lose weight, and our guide notes that surgeons usually prefer you to have completed your family and to have held a steady weight for some months first. If the loose skin is confined to the area below the navel, a mini tummy tuck is sometimes an option. Our guide suggests allowing about 12–14 days in Thailand, and drains are often used for the first days, and it is worth asking him exactly how blood clots are prevented, both around the operation and before the long flight home.

Interests listed without a specific operation

Seven entries on his profile are too broad or too brief to link to one guide:

• 'Body Contouring' does not name liposuction or any other technique. If you are interested in liposuction, ask whether he offers it.
• 'Gluteal Enlargement (Buttock Augmentation)' does not say whether implants or fat transfer are used. The two approaches differ considerably in how they are done and in their risks: read our buttock implants and Brazilian butt lift guides, including their safety sections, and ask him which method he uses.
• 'Sex Reassignment Surgery' does not state which operations are meant; see the gender-affirming question in the FAQs below and our gender-affirming surgery guides.
• 'Mastectomy' appears without context, so it is unclear whether it refers to breast removal for medical reasons or to chest masculinisation (top surgery). Ask directly.
• 'Skin Tumor' is listed with no description. If you have a skin lesion you want assessed or removed, bring any biopsy or pathology report you have.
• 'Breast Surgery' and 'Facial Cosmetic Surgery' are umbrella headings for the procedures described above.

A consultation is where an entry on Dr. Sattha's interest list becomes a plan for you, or a reasoned recommendation not to operate. Because his profile publishes no technique details, results or case numbers, it is also your chance to ask for them directly.

Questions for any of his procedures

• What approach would you use in my case, and what made you choose it over the other options?
• What is your yearly volume for this operation, roughly? (He publishes no figures, so the question is fair.)
• Would surgery be at Bumrungrad, and who would be responsible for my anaesthesia?
• How long would I be an inpatient, and at what point would you expect me to be fit for a long-haul flight?
• Which costs are covered by the written quote and which are not, and what would a revision cost me if one were needed?
• After I fly home, who is my contact for any concern, and can follow-up be done by video call?

Questions by procedure area

• Facelift or neck lift: a SMAS, deep plane or mini lift for my face? Would you combine a neck lift or eyelid surgery, and how does that change the recovery?
• Eyelid surgery: upper, lower or both lids? Do I have any ptosis, or would a brow lift suit me better?
• Rhinoplasty: reduction or augmentation, and with my own cartilage or an implant? An open or closed approach? Will my breathing be assessed as well as the shape?
• Otoplasty: what exactly will change in the shape of my ears, and how long should I wear a headband?
• Breast augmentation: silicone or saline, which surface, which incision and which pocket, and what size range suits my chest?
• Breast lift or reduction: which scar pattern, what happens to nipple sensation, and how could it affect breastfeeding if I plan more children?
• Gynecomastia: is my chest mainly gland or fat, and has a medical cause been ruled out?
• Tummy tuck: full or mini; will the muscles be repaired; how are drains and blood-clot prevention handled?

Get it in writing

Ask for the surgical plan, the quote and the aftercare instructions in writing, and keep copies with your medical records at home. Should Dr. Sattha place breast implants, make sure you leave with the implant card or record listing their manufacturer, size, type and lot numbers.

If you begin with an online consultation, treat any plan based on photos as provisional. It becomes a firm plan only when Dr. Sattha has seen you face to face at Bumrungrad, and details can change at that point.

Where you will go. Dr. Sattha consults in Bumrungrad's Plastic Surgery Center: take the lift to level 16 of Building A and check in at Counter A. For taxis and maps, the hospital sits at number 33 on Sukhumvit Soi 3 (Soi Nana Nua), Wattana, postcode 10110. Our Bangkok guide covers the wider city.

Getting there. At Suvarnabhumi Airport the hospital lists a representative who meets arrivals in the International Arrival Hall (Gate 9, by Exit C), an hourly free van (it depends on passenger numbers) that carries arrivals from Suvarnabhumi either to the hospital or to a nearby hotel, and a no-charge van link, daily, between the hospital and the BTS Skytrain stations at Nana and Phrom Phong.

Help for international patients. Overseas patients can use Bumrungrad's Medical Coordination Office free of charge. According to the hospital, its coordination doctors and nurses, whose office is on level 10 of Building A, can look over your records, give price estimates, book appointments and set up telemedicine before you travel, and after discharge can prepare medical reports and fit-to-fly paperwork. Further services the hospital describes are Cultural Support Officers who assist medical travellers not using English as their main language, more than 130 interpreters (a factsheet figure), help extending visas, arranged through the Bangkok Immigration Office, embassy and international insurance coordination, and a Business Center that books hotels and flights. Tele-consultation with a doctor is also available through the Plastic Surgery Center.

Languages. Dr. Sattha's own profile lists Thai and English. The hospital lists interpreting in many other languages, among them Arabic, Mandarin and Cantonese Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Russian, Vietnamese, French and German. If you would like an interpreter at the consultation, say so when you request it.

Accreditation and size. Joint Commission International (JCI) lists Bumrungrad in its directory with Hospital Program accreditation, first effective in February 2002, and the hospital's factsheet records renewals every three years from 2005 through 2023. The Advanced Hospital Accreditation granted by HA Thailand, the national Healthcare Accreditation Institute, runs until 22 May 2029 according to its register. Global Healthcare Accreditation's directory has carried the hospital for medical travel since September 2017. According to the factsheet, the hospital has 580 inpatient beds and 40 operating theatres. Each source is cited on our Bumrungrad International Hospital profile.

How long to stay. The stays below are the typical ranges from our procedure guides for the operations on his list, not his own instructions. Eyelid surgery or otoplasty: roughly 5–7 days. Rhinoplasty, breast augmentation or gynecomastia surgery: roughly 7–10 days. A facelift, neck lift, breast lift or breast reduction: roughly 10–14 days. A tummy tuck, the longest on his list: roughly 12–14 days. Having more than one operation at once usually lengthens the stay. The date you fly home should follow Dr. Sattha's check-up rather than the other way round, so book a ticket you can change. Because his published clinic sessions are on Thursdays and Sundays, tell us your arrival date early so your first appointment can be matched to it.

Sending the right information in advance lets Dr. Sattha give a more useful first opinion and helps the hospital plan any tests. Our patient team will tell you how to send it when they reply to your request.

For every procedure

• Basic measurements: your age, height and weight, plus any recent weight change.
• Your health history: any diagnosed illness, the full list of prescription drugs, vitamins and herbal products you use, with blood-thinning ones marked, and known allergies.
• Whether you smoke, vape or use any nicotine product; most surgeons ask patients to give it up for a set time before and after the operation.
• Any earlier surgery, above all on the part you want treated, with approximate dates and copies of operation notes where available.
• What you want to change and what concerns you, in your own words, and your intended travel dates.

Photos

Stand in soft daylight with a plain wall behind you; skip make-up, jewellery and phone filters, and hold the camera at the height of the area you are showing.

• Face, neck and eyelids: a front view and both side views, plus a close front view of the eyes looking straight ahead. Say whether you use glasses or contact lenses, and note any eye condition such as glaucoma, dryness or thyroid-related changes.
• Nose: front, side and base (from below) views. Note any breathing problems, injury, allergies or earlier nose surgery, and the graft or implant used if you know it.
• Ears: a front view of your face and views of each ear from the side and from behind.
• Breasts or male chest: front and side views taken from the collarbones down to the waist. If you already have implants, send the implant card or whatever you know about brand, size and placement. Mention pregnancy or breastfeeding plans and include any breast imaging reports you already have. For gynecomastia, list medicines, supplements or anabolic steroids, and any hormone test results.
• Abdomen: front and side views while standing, from below the chest to the upper thighs. Mention past pregnancies, plans for more children, previous abdominal scars and any history of blood clots.

For the other interests on his profile

For a skin lesion, send clear close-up photos and any biopsy report. For gender-affirming surgery, say which procedure you have in mind and include your hormone history and any assessment letters you already have; requirements differ between surgeons and hospitals, and our gender-affirming surgery guide explains the usual assessment.

A remote opinion based on photos is provisional until Dr. Sattha examines you in person.
