As we age, our voice naturally changes — becoming softer, weaker, or more breathy. This condition, known as Presbyphonia or the Aging Voice, occurs due to physiological changes in the vocal folds and surrounding muscles. While aging is inevitable, losing the quality and strength of your voice doesn’t have to be.
At Yoskarn Clinic in Bangkok, Dr. Somyot Kunjak and his highly skilled medical team bring over 40 years of experience in voice and ENT surgery to help patients restore clarity, power, and youthfulness to their voices.
The voice is produced when the vocal folds come together and vibrate as air passes through them. With age, these tissues may thin, lose elasticity, and weaken, causing incomplete closure during speech. This results in:
Weak or breathy voice
Decreased vocal endurance
Difficulty being heard in noisy environments
Tremor or instability in pitch
Presbyphonia is common in both men and women over 60, but it is often underdiagnosed and undertreated.
At Yoskarn Clinic, we perform a comprehensive voice evaluation using:
Videostroboscopy to observe vocal fold motion and closure pattern
Voice acoustic and aerodynamic analysis
Medical assessment to exclude neurological or systemic causes
This precise diagnostic approach ensures we identify the underlying problem and tailor an effective, minimally invasive treatment plan.
Voice Therapy
Specialized exercises designed by our voice therapists strengthen the vocal muscles, improve breath support, and enhance resonance. Many patients experience noticeable improvement within weeks.
Vocal Fold Augmentation
For patients with significant vocal fold thinning, injection laryngoplasty (vocal fold augmentation) can restore proper closure and improve loudness. Dr. Somyot Kunjak performs this minimally invasive procedure under local anesthesia for quick recovery.
