A tummy tuck helps to flatten the stomach and can dramatically reduce the appearance of a protruding abdomen that is common for women who have had multiple pregnancies.

It is a major surgical procedure to remove the excess skin and fat from the middle and lower abdomen, and tightening the muscles of the abdominal wall. The time required for this procedure is around 2-5 hours with general sedation and 5 nights in hospital post-op.

Jess of WA, Breast Augmentation, Dr Piyapas, Bangkok Phuket Hospital

If you are considering a procedure through RBG - DO IT! My friends and family are absolutely blown away by how brilliant my boobs look and how quickly I have recovered. I was out shopping 2 days after surgery and didn’t even need my painkillers!! I have already recommended RBG and Dr Piyapas to all my friends wanting surgery and if you saw my results, you’d do it too! The team at RBG were so helpful and make me feel secure and confident. I am SO happy (and so is my husband!)

Krystal of WA, Breast Augmentation, Dr. Witoon, Bangkok Phuket Hospital

In OCT 2010, I made a trip with RBG to Phuket for a Breast Enlargement. I was nervous. I was excited and I was also a little scared I didn't know what to expect!!! But it is most definitely the best thing I have ever done in my life, the confidence I feel now, I would have never been able to feel, if I didn't go ahead with the procedure in Phuket, I mean seriously, why would you spend up to $13,000 here for the exact same thing? when they are better over in Phuket?!!!!

The hospital RBG chooses to go through, are cheap, friendly, all speak English, and have been given so many awards for there amazing work!!!! I felt as if I was staying in a 5 star hotel!!! I was planning on going through a different company, which I could tell didn't care about me genuinely, they only wanted my money, and fast. I was just another client to them, customer service to me is a big deal, and not only the cheap prices, but RBG won me over with there caring, kind and thoughtfulness through the whole entire trip! I miss the trip so much, every night Rebecca and the team would offer to take us out to different restaurants, site seeing. 2 days post boob job, I went elephant riding through the Phuket forest! I highly recommend this trip to any one even considering it! They will be there for your every beck and call, anything you need help with they are there. RBG bend over back wards to help you with anything. we stayed at Impania Resort, which was just amazing, huge bedrooms and amazing poolside by the beach, I seriously can not explain how amazing this trip is, and how much it has helped me. So I would sincerely like to thank RBG for helping me out and making this happen for me!
