People are flocking to have it done! wow! I wonder what all do you get for 7500.00 dollars?? Seems sort of a bargain to me, but there are probably significant charges if you buy more than the basic model. How many have been done now (successfully) since this was originally posted?

Well, per capita income in Thailand is much lower than developed countries, and the cost there is generally much lower, and that's why the operation costs $7,500.

I have to admit: I had to look very carefully at the word "plan" to make sure it didn't read "plans" perchance!
