80-Year-Old 'Elvis Thailand' Transforms with Anti-Aging Facelift Surgery, Now Looks Like a Movie Star

"Elvis Thailand," an 80-year-old man born Somsak, has become a trending story again after undergoing a complete facial transformation. He opted for a full facelift procedure that left him looking noticeably younger, with many people praising his appearance as comparable to legendary stars from the 1980s-90s era.

Previously known for using facial tape before bed for years to reduce sagging skin, Somsak—known as "Grandpa Elvis"—finally decided to pursue professional cosmetic surgery to fulfill his dream of having a tight, firm face while maintaining a strong physique. He explained that despite turning 80, he still values his appearance, noting that body shape can be improved through exercise, but facial wrinkles and sagging require medical technology. The decision to have surgery at his age was difficult and required extensive research before he settled on renowned facial surgeon "Dr. Beam" at Beams Plastic Surgery in the Ratchapruk area.

Elvis Thailand emphasized his role as an elderly person who prioritizes self-care. He noted that many people opposed his surgery, asking why he would bother at his age. However, he responded: "Everything depends on ourselves. I'm not afraid of dying tomorrow—I just think about what makes me happy and what dreams I want to fulfill. The answer is wanting to be handsome. Even if I die tomorrow, at least today I'm satisfied." He stressed the importance of choosing accredited hospitals for such procedures, as they require anesthesia and close monitoring by anesthesiologists and specialist medical teams.

Two months post-surgery, the results have been impressive with barely visible scars and widespread compliments on his youthful appearance. People struggle to believe he's 80 years old. Having replaced his nightly facial tape routine with permanent surgical results, he now enjoys a tight, firm face without relying on tape anymore.
