Is Santongsuai a hospital?
No. Santongsuai is a consultation and patient coordination agency. The treating hospital and its medical professionals assess suitability and provide treatment.
Do I have to choose a hospital immediately?
You can begin by discussing your goals and comparing options. Ask for the doctor's proposed approach and an itemized quotation before deciding.
Is my appointment confirmed when I submit an enquiry?
No. The team must check availability with the hospital or clinic and send confirmation. Prices, inclusions and booking terms should also be confirmed in writing.
Which languages are available?
The current service includes Thai coordination and interpretation where arranged. Tell us if you prefer another language so availability and any interpretation costs can be confirmed before booking.
How long should I stay in Korea?
There is no single schedule for every procedure. Ask the treating hospital about consultations, follow-up appointments and when it is appropriate for you to travel.
Can photographs guarantee my result?
No. Case galleries are references, and results and recovery times differ between individuals. Discuss expectations and limitations with the doctor.
What support is available after I return home?
The team can help communicate with the treating hospital and coordinate agreed follow-up. Confirm the scope, location and charges for any aftercare service before your trip.
How long should I stay in Seoul after plastic surgery?
The answer depends on the procedure, the doctor’s follow-up schedule, wound care, stitch or splint removal and whether additional review is needed. Do not choose a return flight based on a generic internet timetable. Ask the treating hospital to confirm the minimum stay for your specific plan before purchasing a restrictive ticket.
How do I choose a Korea plastic surgery agency?
Check the company identity, the role of the coordinator, the treating hospital and doctor, written fees, deposit terms, language support and the plan for follow-up. Be cautious of any coordinator that presents itself as the medical provider or guarantees a result. Santongsuai explains its role and supporting information on the Korea plastic surgery agency page and company information page.
Can Thai patients use a Korea medical tourism coordinator?
Yes. A coordinator can help Thai patients organize consultations, interpretation, scheduling and practical arrangements in Seoul. The medical plan must still be assessed and explained by the treating doctor. Confirm the coordinator’s exact service scope before paying a deposit.
Can I travel to South Korea for plastic surgery alone?
Yes. Many patients travel alone, provided the treating hospital considers the plan appropriate and the required support is arranged in advance. Santongsuai can coordinate agreed transport, follow-up appointments, interpretation subject to availability and practical recovery assistance. The exact scope, schedule, language support and fees are confirmed in writing. Medical monitoring and clinical care remain with the treating hospital.
What may be included in Santongsuai’s VIP Aftercare Concierge service?
The service may include airport, hotel and hospital transfers, appointment coordination, interpretation subject to availability, practical recovery support and meal arrangements. Inclusions, hours, providers, vehicle category and fees vary and are confirmed in writing. Unless explicitly documented through a licensed provider, this is not a nursing, ambulance or emergency medical service.
Is booking through Santongsuai more expensive than contacting a hospital directly?
Prices vary by hospital, surgeon, procedure, treatment plan and promotion. Santongsuai requests and organizes quotations; any separate coordination, interpretation, transport or aftercare fees should be clearly stated. Compare the complete written scope rather than the headline price alone.
Which hospitals should I consider for revision rhinoplasty or facial contouring?
The appropriate options depend on the concern, technique, medical and surgical history, doctor’s assessment and your goals. Santongsuai can help compare partner options, including Made Young, Banobagi and ID Hospital where appropriate. Review the proposed surgeon, treatment plan, safety information, itemized quotation, follow-up schedule and limitations. Final suitability is determined by the treating doctor.
