Siam Clinic Big C Supercenter (Central) - Any Good?

Featured Replies

Anyone have any experience with these guys? I'm planning to have a mole (or 5) removed and maybe some other minor stuff. The price seems reasonable (around B500 per mole).

Last time i visited them 2 years ago, excellent service

Well I went ahead and tried them out yesterday. They seemed to be in a big rush, but at least I didn't have to wait and we got right to it. Took about 25 mins for the raised mole to be burned off with a laser. Mostly painless except for the initial anaesthetic shot - would've been nice to have been given a heads up about that, but anyway (mole was on my back so I couldn't see what was going on).

Price was B500, where a lot of other places were asking B1000, or even B2900+ at my local clinic!

No biopsy, which I'm sure is normal for a cosmetic place and then you buy some anti-bacterial cream for B70.

Staff were friendly and the surgeon in charge spoke "enough" English. The whole place is pretty small and some adjustments were made to fit a big farang like me (or potentially you) in there. No big deal.

Despite what you might hear enquiring on the phone (probably a language barrier thing) they only use laser and not a knife/blade to slice off moles. I'd heard moles are more likely to grow back when burned with a laser, but the doc assured me that it wouldn't and guaranteed as much... for one month. My definition of "not growing back," equals forever, but we'll see what happens.

The next day and it looks like it's still there, but that's just the bloodied, circular spot where they fried it. Time will tell if it scars or leaves much of a mark. If it seems to stay away and heals over ok, I'd go back to get others done.
