Dr. นพ.กฤษณ์ เกรียงไกรเกษม

นพ.กฤษณ์ เกรียงไกรเกษม is a male ear, nose and throat (ENT) doctor whose documented specialty is facial plastic and reconstructive surgery. The hospital lists him in its ENT Centre at Sikarin Hospital, in the Bang Na district of Bangkok. In Thai usage นพ. precedes the name of a male physician.

His name appears here in Thai script, the sole form used on the hospital's doctor listing. No English spelling appeared on the listing we reviewed, and we avoid guessing a transliteration of anyone's name, since a wrong spelling makes it harder for you to find the right person.

What the hospital listing documents

• Specialty: facial plastic surgery within otolaryngology (ENT). The hospital words this as facial plastic and reconstructive surgery.
• Workplace: the ENT Centre at Sikarin Hospital, Bangkok, with a clinic listed on Saturdays between 13:30 and 19:00.
• Languages: Thai and English.
• Membership: the Medical Council of Thailand, as stated by the hospital. This is a statement on the hospital page and we have not matched it to the council's own register.

What the listing does not document

It names no individual operations, so we link no procedure page to him. Patients who see a facial plastic surgeon may have a wide range of concerns, but whether he takes on a particular one has to come from him or from the hospital. If you request a consultation, the hospital will be asked about it on your behalf.

The items below come from the hospital's own doctor listing. They are reported as published.

• Medical degree: Doctor of Medicine (MD), Phramongkutklao College of Medicine, Thailand, 2008.
• Specialty board certificate: a Thai board certificate in otolaryngology (หู คอ จมูก, ear, nose and throat), linked to Bhumibol Adulyadej Hospital, 2014.
• Fellowship: a facial plastic and reconstructive surgery fellowship held at Chulalongkorn University. The listing gives no year for this item, so we give none.

Put simply, the described route runs from medical school to ENT specialist training and board certification, and then to a further period of focused facial plastic and reconstructive surgery training. That differs from the route of a surgeon who trained in general plastic surgery, although the two fields overlap in facial work. A training route does not by itself show which operations a doctor carries out, so it is worth asking what his day-to-day caseload looks like.

We could not reach the Thai medical register during this research round, so we hold no licence number for him and cannot say that his licence has been confirmed. Should you want an independent check, add a line saying so to your enquiry and we will log it.

The single documented role is at the ENT Centre of Sikarin Hospital, Bangkok, where he is listed as an ENT doctor with a specialty in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery.

Nothing published that we found describes earlier posts, teaching appointments, journal articles or roles in professional societies, so this page describes none. For the same reason we give no figure for years in practice and no case numbers. If those details are important to your decision, ask for them directly and in writing.

The one area of focus on record is facial plastic and reconstructive surgery. Because no named operations appear on the listing, the text below is general background and not a list of what he offers.

In general, facial plastic surgery as practised by ENT-trained surgeons deals with parts of the face where function and appearance are closely tied. The nose is the obvious case: it carries the airway and is also the most central feature of the face, so someone considering nasal surgery will often raise breathing, past injury and appearance together. Reconstructive work after injury or illness also falls within this field.

Our own guides give a plain-language overview of two common facial operations, rhinoplasty and facelift. They are included as reading material only. They do not indicate that this doctor performs either operation, because the hospital listing does not say so.

A sensible way to use this information

1. Write down the change or problem that brings you to a facial surgeon.
2. Ask, in your consultation request, whether he treats that kind of concern.
3. Ask whether non-surgical options exist and how they compare.
4. Ask who would carry out the operation and in which facility.

Every operation carries risk, and suitability for surgery needs a proper assessment by the surgeon, face to face or remotely.

Since the hospital publishes no procedure list for him, the consultation is where the real scope of his work becomes clear. Reasonable questions for any facial plastic surgeon include:

• Which operations make up the bulk of your practice, and does my concern sit among them?
• Is surgery advisable for me, or would a less invasive route do?
• Given my health and any previous surgery, which risks apply to me in particular?
• What stages of recovery should I expect, and when would it be safe to travel home by air?
• What follow-up is available after I leave Thailand, and who deals with complications?
• Do you take on revision cases, where an earlier operation needs correcting?

In general, a careful surgeon explains the limits of surgery as openly as its possibilities. Treat any promise of a specific result with caution. We publish no success rates or outcome claims for him because none are documented.

When a breathing problem and an appearance concern come together, mention both at the outset. ENT training covers how the airway works as well as how the face looks, but only an assessment can show what applies in your situation.

His hospital listing includes English among his languages. We hold no published details about the hospital's international patient office, interpreter provision, airport transfers or accreditation, so we do not describe any of them. Our facility notes sit on the Sikarin Hospital page.

The hospital's published address puts it at 976 La Salle Road, in the Bang Na Tai sub-district of Bangkok (postcode 10260). Our Bangkok destination guide covers the wider city.

Two practical points need confirming before you book travel. First, the listing shows a Saturday afternoon clinic only, so dates should be fixed around those hours. Second, how long you need to stay depends on the type of treatment and on how healing goes, which a surgeon can only estimate after assessing you. Ask for a written minimum stay before buying flights.

Sending information ahead of time helps a surgeon give a more useful first reply. For facial or ENT-related concerns, general guidance is:

• A brief written account of the concern and what you would like to see changed.
• Face photographs in daylight or soft even light: straight on, from each side and from a three-quarter angle, with no make-up and no filters.
• Details of any earlier surgery, including the year, the country and the operation report if you have it.
• Your current medicines, allergies and relevant medical conditions.
• Scans, letters or notes from your own doctor, particularly where breathing, an injury or a previous operation is involved.

Send only what you are comfortable sharing. If the surgeon needs more, our team will tell you.
