My facelift journey
I highly recommend Dr. Dominic (Dr. Rushapol Sdawat) in Bangkok, Thailand, operating through Med Sanctuary at Intrarat Hospital, located about 20 minutes from Bangkok’s airport.
My entire experience exceeded expectations. My round-trip airfare from the United States was approximately $1,200, and my total cost—including my Deep Plane Facelift (DPFL), brow lift, neck lift, eye pinch, forehead reduction, hospital stay, accommodations, post-operative care, and recovery services—was under $10,000. As I write this, I am only 8 days post-op and already extremely pleased with my experience.
From the moment I arrived at the hospital until I was discharged from post-operative care, everything was handled with professionalism, compassion, and attention to detail. They even provided accommodations and meals for the friend who stayed with me throughout my recovery.
Dr. Dominic was exceptionally caring. He personally provided me with his private contact information and encouraged me to reach out anytime with questions or concerns, which gave me tremendous peace of mind throughout the process. He made sure I understood every step of the surgery and recovery and never made me feel rushed. Having undergone plastic surgery several times in the United States, this level of accessibility and follow-up care was something I had never experienced before.
What impressed me most was how willing the entire team was to go above and beyond. During my recovery, the staff helped wash and blow-dry my hair, something that may seem small but made a huge difference in my comfort and confidence while healing. They also included red light therapy treatments as part of my post-operative care to help accelerate healing, reduce inflammation, and minimize the appearance of scars. These thoughtful touches made me feel genuinely cared for as a patient rather than just another case.
The nursing care was truly outstanding—the best I have ever received. Every member of the staff treated me with kindness, patience, and genuine compassion. Their attentiveness, encouragement, and support made a tremendous difference in my recovery and overall experience.
In my experience, many cosmetic surgery practices in the United States focus on getting patients in and out quickly, with limited follow-up afterward. My experience with Dr. Dominic, Med Sanctuary, and Intrarat Hospital was completely different. The level of personal attention, communication, and aftercare far exceeded my expectations.
