The human voice is one of the most powerful tools of communication — a unique reflection of identity, confidence, and emotion. When voice problems occur due to medical conditions, aging, or personal goals such as gender transition, modern voice surgery (phonosurgery) can help restore or enhance vocal quality safely and effectively.
At Yoskarn Clinic in Bangkok, Thailand, Dr. Somyot Kunjak and his specialized medical team bring over 40 years of experience in ENT and voice surgery. They offer a full range of treatments for hoarseness, aging voice, vocal fold paralysis, and gender-affirming voice modification, combining advanced surgical precision with personalized care.
Voice surgery refers to medical or surgical procedures that correct, restore, or modify the vocal folds and laryngeal structures responsible for sound production.
It is often performed to address functional disorders such as hoarseness, weak voice, pitch instability, or to achieve aesthetic voice changes in transgender or professional voice users.
Modern techniques — including microlaryngoscopy, laser surgery, and endoscopic microsurgery — allow for highly precise operations that preserve natural vocal quality and minimize downtime.
Voice Surgery for Hoarseness – Removal or repair of vocal fold nodules, polyps, scars, or cysts to restore clarity and endurance.
Voice Surgery for Aging Voice (Presbyphonia) – Rejuvenation of weakened vocal folds through augmentation or injection techniques to strengthen tone and resonance.
Voice Feminization Surgery – Procedures such as Cricothyroid Approximation (CTA) and Anterior Commissure Advancement (ACA) to elevate pitch and soften resonance.
Voice Deepening Surgery – Adjustments to vocal fold tension and length to achieve a naturally deeper, masculine tone.
Each procedure is customized to the patient’s anatomy, lifestyle, and communication goals.
Yoskarn Clinic utilizes cutting-edge equipment, including CO₂ laser systems, endoscopic visualization, and high-definition stroboscopy, ensuring accuracy and safety during surgery.
Microsurgical precision enables minimal trauma to delicate vocal tissue, resulting in faster recovery and long-term vocal stability.
Voice surgery is complemented by professional voice therapy and rehabilitation programs designed to help patients adapt to their new vocal mechanics and optimize performance.
This integrated approach is particularly beneficial for singers, teachers, actors, and transgender patients aiming for natural and expressive voice outcomes.
