As we age, our voices naturally change — often becoming weaker, breathy, or less steady. This condition, known as presbyphonia or aging voice, occurs when the vocal folds lose muscle tone and elasticity over time. The result can affect not only communication but also confidence and emotional expression.
At Yoskarn Clinic in Bangkok, Dr. Somyot Kunjak and his experienced medical team have over 40 years of expertise in treating voice disorders related to aging. Using modern diagnostic tools and precise microsurgical or minimally invasive techniques, they help patients restore a youthful, strong, and natural voice.
The vocal cords, like all muscles, weaken with age. When this happens, the vocal folds may not close properly, leading to:
A thin, breathy or weak voice
Vocal fatigue after short conversations
Reduced loudness or projection
Tremor or instability in tone
Difficulty being heard in noisy environments
These changes may develop gradually but can have a major emotional and social impact.
When non-surgical treatments such as voice therapy or medical management are not sufficient, voice surgery can effectively rejuvenate the vocal folds and improve closure.
Common surgical procedures include:
Injection Laryngoplasty – Adding volume to the vocal folds using biocompatible materials to restore contact and improve sound quality.
Medialization Thyroplasty – Repositioning the weakened vocal fold to improve closure and strength.
Laser or Endoscopic Techniques – Refining tissue structure with precision for long-term improvement.
These procedures are performed under magnified visualization, ensuring delicate handling of vocal structures and rapid recovery.
Post-surgery, patients benefit from voice therapy guided by Yoskarn Clinic’s speech specialists. Therapy helps retrain proper breath support, resonance, and muscle coordination — ensuring the restored voice sounds natural, strong, and sustainable for years.
