lifting, volume and contour

Facial concerns divide into four problems that are often mixed: descent (sagging), deflation (volume loss), movement lines and contour. Each has a different mechanism and a different tool, which is why assessment at rest and in animation comes before any plan. This page lists the conditions and treatments for the face on this site.

How assessment works for the face

Dr Sin Yong examines the area himself, at rest and in movement, and names the mechanism before naming a device. The consultation process and how fees are quoted are described on their own pages; if something feels wrong after a treatment done anywhere, the complication care page explains what to do.

Frequently Asked Questions

Every condition listed on this page is assessed in person at Wheelock Place, Orchard Road. Assessment comes first; some visits end with no treatment recommended, and surgical problems are referred to a plastic surgery specialist.

By mechanism: the assessment names what is actually wrong (for example descent versus deflation, or pigment type) and only then matches a treatment to it. Device names are not the starting point.

No. Singapore's rules for medical advertising restrict price advertising, and no plan can be set before an examination. Fees are quoted in writing after assessment; see how fees are quoted.
