Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. Is Thyroid Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) painful?

No. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia. You will feel a numbing sensation, and most patients report only a mild feeling of pressure during the treatment. Post-procedure discomfort is minimal.

2. How long is the recovery time?

RFA is an outpatient procedure. There is no hospital stay required. Most international patients can fly back home or resume light tourism activities in Antalya within 24 hours.

3. Will RFA leave a permanent scar?

No. Because there are no incisions or stitches, RFA is a "scarless" procedure. The needle entry point heals quickly and typically becomes invisible within a few days.

4. Can RFA treat all types of nodules?

RFA is primarily used for benign (non-cancerous) nodules that cause pressure, swallowing issues, or cosmetic swelling. A preliminary evaluation at Clinic Antalya is required to confirm your suitability.

5. Why should I travel to Antalya for RFA?

Antalya is a leading global destination for Interventional Radiology. We provide world-class medical technology, experienced specialists, and VIP patient services (including transfers and accommodation) at a significantly lower cost than in the UK, Europe, or the US.
