Our aesthetic treatments, including Botox injections, reduce wrinkles and fine lines by relaxing facial muscles, providing a rejuvenated and youthful appearance.

Benefits of Botox Injections at Our Singapore Aesthetic Clinic

At our Singapore aesthetic clinic, Botox injections are performed to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines by temporarily relaxing the facial muscles responsible for these creases. They are particularly effective for dynamic wrinkles, which form due to repeated facial expressions like smiling, frowning, or squinting. Botox is also used for medical purposes, such as treating chronic migraines, excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis), and muscle spasms.

Your Botox Experience at Our Singapore Aesthetic Clinic: Before, During, and After

Before the Procedure

Consultation: Consultation: Our experienced aesthetic doctors in Singapore will evaluate your skin, discuss your aesthetic goals, and determine if Botox is the suitable treatment for you. They may ask about your medical history, allergies, and any medications you're taking.

Preparation: Avoid blood-thinning medications like aspirin or ibuprofen a few days prior to reduce the risk of bruising. The treatment area will be cleaned before the procedure begins.

During the Procedure

Administration: Our skilled aesthetic doctors use a fine needle to inject precise amounts of Botox into targeted facial muscles, ensuring optimal results.

Common treatment areas include the forehead, crow’s feet (around the eyes), and frown lines (between the eyebrows).

Pain Level: Most people experience minimal discomfort, often described as a slight pinprick sensation.

Duration: The procedure typically takes 10–20 minutes, depending on the number of areas being treated.

After the Procedure

Immediate Post-Treatment: Patients may experience mild redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection sites; however, these effects typically subside within a few hours to a couple of days, ensuring a swift return to your daily routine.

Avoid touching or rubbing the treated areas to prevent the Botox from spreading to unintended muscles.

Downtime: Botox injections require little to no downtime, and you can usually resume your daily activities right away.

Results:

Effects become noticeable within 3–7 days, with full results appearing around 2 weeks after treatment.

Results typically last 3–4 months, after which maintenance injections are needed to sustain the effects.

Important Tips After the Procedure

Avoid strenuous exercise, alcohol, and lying down for at least 4–6 hours post-treatment.

Follow any specific aftercare instructions provided by your doctor.

By following proper preparation and aftercare, Botox can provide a refreshed and rejuvenated appearance while maintaining natural facial expressions.

Adds volume to areas like cheeks, lips, and under-eye hollows.

Why Are Dermal Fillers Done?

Dermal fillers are injectable treatments designed to restore volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial contours. They address age-related volume loss, improve skin elasticity, and enhance features like lips, cheeks, or jawlines. Dermal fillers are commonly used to:

Fill wrinkles and fine lines (e.g., nasolabial folds, marionette lines).

Add volume to hollow areas like cheeks or under-eye hollows.

Plump and define lips.

Enhance facial symmetry and contours.

Made from substances like hyaluronic acid (HA), calcium hydroxylapatite, or poly-L-lactic acid, these fillers are minimally invasive and provide immediate, natural-looking results.

What to Expect Before, During, and After the Procedure

Before the Procedure

Consultation: The provider will assess your facial structure, discuss your aesthetic goals, and recommend the type of filler that best suits your needs.

You’ll be asked about your medical history, allergies, and current medications to ensure safety.

Preparation: Avoid blood-thinning medications (e.g., aspirin, ibuprofen) and supplements like fish oil or vitamin E for about a week prior to reduce the risk of bruising. Avoid alcohol and smoking before the procedure, as they can affect healing.

During the Procedure

Administration:

The area will be cleaned, and a topical anesthetic or numbing agent may be applied to minimize discomfort. Some fillers already contain lidocaine for added comfort.

Using a fine needle or cannula, the filler is injected into targeted areas. The provider may gently massage the area to ensure even distribution.

Pain Level: Most patients report minimal discomfort, thanks to numbing agents and the quick nature of the procedure.

Duration: The process usually takes 15–30 minutes, depending on the treatment area(s).

After the Procedure

Immediate Post-Treatment:

Mild swelling, redness, and bruising are common but typically resolve within a few days.

Some areas, like the lips, may swell more noticeably, but this subsides over time.

Downtime: Dermal fillers generally require no significant downtime, and most patients can return to their regular activities immediately.

Results:

Results are visible immediately but improve over the next few days as swelling subsides.

Depending on the type of filler used, results can last 6–18 months or longer.

Important Tips After the Procedure

Avoid strenuous exercise, excessive heat (e.g., saunas, hot showers), and alcohol for 24–48 hours.

Avoid touching or massaging the treated areas unless instructed by your provider.

Apply ice packs to reduce swelling and bruising if needed.

Improves skin texture and tone by removing damaged outer layers.

Why Are Chemical Peels Done?

Chemical peels are cosmetic treatments used to improve the texture, tone, and overall appearance of the skin. They work by applying a chemical solution to exfoliate and remove damaged outer layers of skin, revealing smoother, clearer, and younger-looking skin underneath. Common reasons for undergoing chemical peels include:

Reducing fine lines and wrinkles.

Treating acne scars or active acne.

Improving skin discoloration (e.g., sunspots, melasma, age spots).

Smoothing rough skin texture.

Reducing the appearance of enlarged pores.

Chemical peels are available in different strengths: superficial, medium, and deep peels, each targeting specific skin concerns and requiring varying recovery times.

What to Expect Before, During, and After the Procedure

Before the Procedure

Consultation:

A skincare professional will assess your skin type, concerns, and goals to determine the most suitable peel type (e.g., glycolic acid, salicylic acid, TCA, or phenol).

You’ll be advised to avoid excessive sun exposure, exfoliating products, and certain skincare ingredients (e.g., retinoids) for 1–2 weeks before the treatment.

Skin Preparation:

In some cases, you may need to use specific pre-treatment skincare products (like hydroquinone or a mild retinoid) to prepare your skin and ensure even results.

During the Procedure

Application:

The skin will be thoroughly cleansed to remove oil and impurities.

The chemical solution will be applied evenly to the skin using a brush, sponge, or cotton applicator.

You may feel a mild tingling, stinging, or warming sensation as the solution works on your skin.

Duration:

Superficial peels typically take 15–20 minutes, while medium or deep peels may take longer.

Some peels are neutralized with water or another solution after a set time, while others self-neutralize.

After the Procedure

Immediate Post-Treatment:

Superficial peels may cause mild redness and tightness, similar to a sunburn, which resolves in 1–3 days.

Medium and deep peels may cause significant redness, peeling, and swelling, lasting 1–2 weeks.

Peeling Process:

Flaking or peeling typically begins a few days after the treatment as the outer skin sheds.

Avoid picking or pulling at peeling skin to prevent scarring or uneven results.

Results:

Initial improvements in skin texture and tone can be seen within a week for superficial peels. Medium and deep peels provide more dramatic results but require longer healing times.

Results improve over time as collagen production is stimulated and new skin emerges.

Important Aftercare Tips

Sun Protection: Apply broad-spectrum sunscreen daily, as the new skin is highly sensitive to UV damage.

Moisturize: Use a gentle, hydrating moisturizer to support healing and reduce dryness.

Avoid Irritants: Refrain from using harsh skincare products (e.g., retinoids, exfoliants) until your skin has fully healed.

Follow Instructions: Adhere to your provider's specific aftercare guidelines to maximize results and prevent complications.

Stimulates collagen production to rejuvenate skin.

Why Is Microneedling Done?

Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure designed to rejuvenate the skin by stimulating the body’s natural collagen and elastin production. It involves creating tiny, controlled punctures in the skin using fine needles, which trigger the healing process and improve the skin's texture and appearance. It is performed to address various skin concerns, including:

Fine lines and wrinkles

Acne scars and other facial scars

Enlarged pores

Uneven skin tone and pigmentation

Stretch marks

Skin laxity (looseness)

Microneedling is safe for most skin types and provides a natural, gradual improvement in skin health and appearance.

What to Expect Before, During, and After the Procedure

Before the Procedure

Consultation: A skincare professional will assess your skin, discuss your goals, and determine if microneedling is suitable for you. You’ll be asked about your medical history, including any skin conditions, infections, or medications you are taking.

Preparation: Avoid direct sun exposure, exfoliating treatments, and products like retinoids or acids for at least 3–5 days before the procedure. Stay hydrated and avoid alcohol 24 hours prior to the treatment to support optimal healing.

During the Procedure

Numbing the Skin: A topical numbing cream is applied to the treatment area to minimize discomfort. This usually takes 20–30 minutes to take effect.

Microneedling Process: A microneedling device (e.g., a pen or roller with fine needles) is passed over the skin, creating tiny punctures at controlled depths. The procedure typically takes 20–45 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area.

Pain Level: Most patients report feeling mild discomfort, similar to a light scratching sensation, but it is generally well-tolerated due to numbing.

After the Procedure

Immediate Post-Treatment: The skin may appear red, similar to a mild sunburn, with slight swelling and sensitivity.

Tiny pinpoint bleeding or micro-scabs may occur but resolve quickly.

Recovery Timeline:

Day 1–2: Redness and mild swelling are common. Avoid touching or applying makeup.

Days 3–5: The skin may start to feel dry, tight, or mildly flaky as it heals.

Day 7 Onward: Improvements in texture and tone become more noticeable as the skin regenerates.

Results: Initial improvements are visible after a week, but optimal results are seen over 4–6 weeks as collagen production increases.

Multiple sessions (3–6 treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart) may be recommended for more significant skin concerns.

Aftercare Tips

Protect Your Skin: Use a gentle sunscreen (SPF 30+) daily, as the skin is sensitive to UV rays.

Stay Hydrated: Use a gentle, hydrating moisturizer to support healing and reduce dryness.

Avoid Irritants: Refrain from using makeup, retinoids, or exfoliating products for at least 3–5 days post-treatment.

Keep It Clean: Avoid touching your face and use a mild cleanser to prevent infections.

No Heat or Sweat: Avoid saunas, hot showers, or strenuous workouts for 24–48 hours.

Reduces unwanted hair growth on various body parts.

Why Is Laser Hair Removal Done?

Laser hair removal is a popular cosmetic procedure used to reduce or permanently remove unwanted hair. It works by using concentrated beams of light to target hair follicles. The pigment in the hair absorbs the light, damaging the follicle and inhibiting future hair growth. It is commonly done to:

Eliminate unwanted hair on areas like the face, legs, underarms, bikini line, back, and chest.

Provide longer-lasting results compared to shaving, waxing, or plucking.

Reduce hair growth for individuals with ingrown hairs or sensitive skin.

Save time and effort spent on regular hair removal methods.

Laser hair removal is suitable for most skin tones and hair types, though it is most effective for those with dark hair and light skin.

What to Expect Before, During, and After the Procedure

Before the Procedure

Consultation: A licensed professional will evaluate your hair and skin type, discuss your expectations, and determine if you are a good candidate for the treatment.

You’ll be informed about how many sessions you’ll need based on your hair growth cycle. Most people require 6–8 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart.

Preparation: Avoid waxing, plucking, or electrolysis for at least 4–6 weeks before treatment, as these methods remove the hair follicle, which the laser targets.

Shave the treatment area 24 hours before the procedure, as this ensures the laser energy is focused on the hair follicle beneath the skin.

Avoid sun exposure, tanning beds, and self-tanning products for at least 2 weeks before treatment to reduce the risk of skin irritation.

During the Procedure

Preparation of the Area: The treatment area will be cleaned, and you’ll wear protective eyewear to shield your eyes from the laser. If necessary, a cooling gel or numbing cream will be applied to reduce discomfort.

Laser Treatment: The technician uses a handheld laser device that emits pulses of light onto the targeted area.

The sensation is often described as similar to the snap of a rubber band against the skin, accompanied by mild heat.

Small areas like the upper lip may take only a few minutes, while larger areas like the legs or back may take 30–60 minutes.

Pain Level: Discomfort is minimal for most people, though it can vary depending on the treatment area and individual pain tolerance. Modern laser systems often include cooling technology to make the procedure more comfortable.

After the Procedure

Immediate Post-Treatment: You may experience redness, mild swelling, and sensitivity in the treated area, similar to a mild sunburn. These symptoms typically subside within a few hours to a day.

A soothing cream or ice pack can be applied to reduce discomfort.

Hair Shedding: Over the next 1–2 weeks, treated hairs will begin to fall out naturally. Avoid plucking or waxing the area, but gentle exfoliation can help speed up the shedding process.

Downtime: There is no significant downtime, and most people can return to normal activities immediately. However, the skin remains sensitive, so care is essential.

Results: Hair growth will reduce progressively with each session. After completing the recommended treatments, most people experience long-term hair reduction.

Maintenance sessions may be needed annually, as some hair may regrow due to hormonal changes or other factors.

Aftercare Tips

Sun Protection: Avoid sun exposure and use a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30+) daily on treated areas.

No Heat or Friction: Avoid hot showers, saunas, and exercise for 24–48 hours post-treatment.

Be Gentle: Use gentle skincare products and avoid harsh chemicals or exfoliation for a few days.

Avoid Other Hair Removal Methods: Stick to shaving if needed between treatments to preserve the effectiveness of laser hair removal.

A non-invasive fat reduction treatment using controlled cooling.

Why Is CoolSculpting Done?

CoolSculpting, or cryolipolysis, is a non-invasive body contouring procedure designed to eliminate stubborn fat that does not respond to diet or exercise. It uses controlled cooling technology to freeze and destroy fat cells, which the body naturally eliminates over time. This procedure is ideal for individuals close to their ideal weight who want to target specific problem areas, such as:

Abdomen (belly fat)

Flanks ("love handles")

Thighs

Back fat

Upper arms

Under the chin (double chin)

CoolSculpting is not a weight-loss solution but a targeted fat-reduction treatment that helps improve body contour and achieve a slimmer, more sculpted appearance.

What to Expect Before, During, and After the Procedure

Before the Procedure

Consultation: A healthcare professional will assess your body, goals, and fat distribution to determine if CoolSculpting is suitable for you. Areas to be treated will be identified, and a personalized treatment plan will be created. You’ll be informed that results develop gradually over a few weeks and that multiple sessions may be needed for optimal results.

Preparation: No special preparation is typically required. You can maintain your regular diet and lifestyle. Wear loose, comfortable clothing on the day of the procedure.

During the Procedure

Positioning: You will be comfortably positioned, and the targeted area will be marked and prepped.

Application of CoolSculpting Device: A gel pad is applied to protect your skin, and the CoolSculpting applicator is placed on the treatment area. The device delivers controlled cooling to freeze fat cells. You may feel a cold sensation initially, followed by numbness in the area. Mild pulling or suction may occur as the applicator adheres to the skin.

Duration: Each treatment area typically takes 35–60 minutes. Many patients read, nap, or watch videos during the procedure.

Comfort Level: Most patients find the procedure comfortable, though initial sensations of cold, tingling, or pressure may be felt during the first few minutes.

After the Procedure

Immediate Post-Treatment: You can return to your normal activities immediately since there is no downtime. CoolSculpting is often called a "lunchtime procedure" because of its convenience. The treated area may appear red, swollen, or slightly tender, but this typically resolves within hours to a few days.

Common Side Effects: Temporary numbness, tingling, bruising, or slight discomfort in the treated area can occur but usually subsides within a week.

Results: Results are not immediate. It takes 1–3 months for the body to naturally eliminate the frozen fat cells, revealing a slimmer contour. Most patients see noticeable fat reduction after 1–2 sessions, with optimal results achieved in about 3 months. Once fat cells are eliminated, they do not return; however, maintaining a healthy lifestyle is essential to prevent new fat accumulation.

Aftercare Tips

Stay Active: Resume regular physical activity to help the body’s lymphatic system eliminate fat cells more efficiently.

Hydrate Well: Drink plenty of water to support the body’s natural processes.

Monitor the Area: Mild tenderness or firmness in the treated area is normal; avoid massaging or applying excessive pressure unless instructed by your provider.

Be Patient: CoolSculpting delivers gradual, natural-looking results, so patience is key.
