Face
A facelift is the medical aesthetics procedure done to quite literally lift up the face, tighten our facial skin, and produce a more youthful appearance for our face.
During a facelift process, some of the procedures involved are the removing excess facial skin, tightening tissues, and reshaping the skin on your face and neck.
There are both surgical and non-surgical options (also known as Threadlift) for facelift. Surgical facelift requires 1-2 days of hospital admission, while a non-surgical one can be completed as an outpatient.
Treatment duration: 2-6 hours (surgical), about 1 hour (non-surgical)
You don't necessarily have to go under the knife for a facelift. With the latest treatments and technology, facelifts have become more and more common. If you have sagging or loose skin, a facelift can help you stimulate collagen production tighten your skin for a younger, fresher looking complexion.
In a non-surgical facelift, threads are used to pull the skin. These threads are absorbable by our body, and are the same type of threads as those used to suture cuts on our skin.
These threads pull our skin from the inside to an upwards and inwards direction to lift the skin, contour the face, and enhance facial features.
Facelift is also known as rhytidectomy, a cosmetic surgery procedure that helps give your face a more youthful appearance. What happens during a facelift/face reshaping procedure? Step 1: Anaesthesia Face reshaping is a long procedure, usually about 4 hours give or take. So general anaesthesia is the preferred choice because patients can't stay still for 4 hours under local anaesthesia. During this phase also, a variety of other procedures can be done to further enhance the outcome of the facelift or face reshaping procedure. These include: Facial implants Soft tissue augmentation to recontour your facial structure Resurfacing techniques to improve the tone and texture of your facial skin Wrinkle reduction via injections Step 2: The Incision Depending on the degree of change you'd like to see, your facelift choices include a traditional facelift, limited incision facelift, or a neck lift (this should be decided in the discussion phase pre-surgery!) A facelift incision often begins at the hairline at the temples of your head, and continues around your ears and ends in the lower scalp section. Fats may be sculpted or redistributed around your face, jowls and neck, and underlying tissues can also be repositioned. The deeper layers of your facial skin and muscles are also lifted. Your skin is then re-draped over the uplifted contours and excess skin is trimmed away. A second incision under the chin may be necessary to further improve an aging neck. Step 3: Closing the incisions Sutures or skin adhesives are used to close the incisions. Once these incisions are healed, the incision lines from the facelift procedure are well concealed within the hairline and in the natural contours of the face and ear, so no visible marks on your face! Step 4: See the results The visible improvements of a facelift or face reshaping procedure will appear as the swelling and bruising subside. Your final result should not only restore a more youthful and rested appearance, but also help you feel more confident about yourself!

Cheek augmentation can be done on an outpatient basis, and full recovery period usually lasts for about 1 to 2 weeks.
Do you have an implant that you wish to be removed? Sometimes our implants may not turn out the way we expected it to do, and an implant removal procedure may be required.
Buccal fat is also commonly known as the baby fats on your face or cheeks that don't seem to wear off even with age. If you wish to have a more defined jawbone and more prominent cheekbones, having a buccal fat removal can result in a thinner, more refined face shape.

Do you wish to have dimples? Some people have dimples on their cheeks naturally but not all of us have them. Dimpleplasty can create artificial dimples quickly on an outpatient basis. Recovery period is minimal, about a few days after the treatment.
Chin augmentation reshapes the chin and chin line, sometimes to enlarge the chin or to sharpen the chin. Chin augmentation can also be done for health purposes, to balance facial features and strengthen the chin line. Patients usually need to stay for at least one night after a chin augmentation procedure. Full recovery period for chin augmentations usually take a month or up to 6 weeks.
Aging is inevitable. Many people that treat aging symptoms (e.g.: wrinkles) opt for anti aging skin care products such as eye cream, face cream, etc. Most of these products are expensive, which is why we rather choose natural ways to slow down conditions associated with aging.
Generally, medical doctors will suggest these to patients: Lifestyle modification Nutritional planning Body and mind regeneration
Everyone experiences aging in a different way and at a different point of time in their lives. Due to different body and mind composition, consultation is important in order to determine the best treatment for anti-aging.

Some examples include laser treatments for spot and pigmentation removal, ultrasound treatments for wrinkle reduction and skin tightening, or facelifts to give you a more youthful appearance.

Has your skin lose its elasticity and become loose due to a loss of collagen due to aging? Or maybe you have experienced a weight loss but your skin has started to become loose and saggy?

Mesotherapy is the injection of medications or nutrients to aid in hair growth to treat hair loss. During a mesotherapy treatment, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and other active substances are injected directly into the third layer of our skin where our blood vessels are, activating the dormant (inactive) hair follicles and stimulate the scalp to aid with hair growth.

Did you know that your skin is actually constantly exposed to harmful conditions like ultraviolet radiations and pollution, causing a loss of moisture and elasticity for your skin? Skin rejuvenation helps to refresh your facial skin and get rid of dead cells and any particles inhibiting healthy skin growth. There are several different technologies used in facial rejuvenation which you can choose with your doctor's advice.
Collagen, in human or animal, is the most abundant protein that makes up most parts of the living body. Collagen is a natural protein, that makes up 70%-80% of our skin dermal layer. Thus, replenishing collagen on our skin becomes essential in order to maintain a youthful look by delaying the signs of aging. While we can’t demand our collagen production to run like when we’re younger, we may, however, induce some collagen to add on to what we have, or cause the body part to produce more collagen. Hence, collagen fillers may be a way to help you regain your youthful looks by “plumping up” your wrinkles and folds. They are also useful in correcting fine lines and wrinkles.
If you don't prefer invasive treatments or facelift surgeries for your anti-aging treatment, you can opt for more technologically-advanced skin tightening procedures using laser. If your have sagging skin, loose skin, wrinkles, lines, or uneven skin tone and texture, laser skin tightening can help you treat these skin conditions and return youthfulness to your face without any surgical process.

Double eyelid surgery generally involves surgical removal or redistribution of the skin, muscle and fat tissues around the eyes, creating a crease (or more commonly known as double eyelids).

The process involves the reshaping of upper or lower eyelids by the removal or repositioning of excess tissue as well as by reinforcement of the surrounding muscles and tendons.

Hair

Hair loss can include excessive shedding, hair thinning, receding hairline, patchy bald spots, or excessively oily or dry scalp.

Acne and Acne Scars
Acne is a skin condition caused by bacteria in the skin. Sometimes hormones can increase skin sensitivity, causing our skin to get inflammed with acne easily at the presence of bacteria, which is why acne is common among teenagers going through puberty.

Comedogenic acne is the small, black or white protruding acne that can be found on our skin from time to time, whereas inflammatory acne is the big, red, swollen acne that happens as a result of our skin inflammation to the bacteria.

Birthmarks and Tattoos
Got a tattoo that you don't wish to have anymore? Removal creams may not work, and some DIY methods may cause you to hurt yourself, especially if it involves rubbing chemicals on your skin. Laser treatments are the most effective and quickest when it comes to tattoo removal. Laser rays can penetrate deep into the skin without injuring the top surface of your skin, and break up the ink particles in your skin pigments. Depending on the tatto size and depth, multiple treatment sessions may be needed.
Most birthmarks do not cause harm to our health, but some can grow and become aesthetic problems, especially if they appear on our face or body. Laser treatments are used to get rid of the pigments causing the birthmarks on the skin. Multiple treatments may be needed to fully get rid of the marks, so you can discuss with the doctor on how the treatment would go. Also, suspicious birthmarks like moles that changes in size or shape should be tested or biopsied for any chances of a cancerous cell.
