Botox VS Fillers

1/27/2021

Patient B: What can I do to target these wrinkles on my face? Do I need botox or fillers? What is the difference between them? 

The answer to this question depends on what kind of wrinkles is present. 

It is very common to utilise a combination of both modalities to target wrinkles on the face, neck and also across the body. 

Fillers fill an area and Botox weakens overactive muscles responsible for causing wrinkles!

Let's take a look together at what we can get with each modality. 

Common Botox Treatment Regions

Frown Lines

V Shape Jaw Slimming
Essentially it can treat most wrinkles which are present WHEN you actively engage the muscle in an expression, such as smiling, frowning etc.

Common Filler Treatment Regions

Other Modalities

*Dr Sin Yong is a Mint Lift Trainer where he regularly employs the use of threads to give a slimmer, rejuvenated appearance. If you desire to go back to where you are when you are young, a combination of The Bliss Lift and Time Freeze Laser is commonly employed to revitalise you to look 10 years younger.

Post Laser Scab Care

1/24/2021

Patient: How do I take care of scabs that form after laser treatments and surgery?

Scabs typically form whenever the optimal power is selected for certain lasers and is common and they signify a phase where your skin is raw and just starting to heal up. They scab whenever you want certain results such as
  • Significant Lightening of Pigmentation
  • Removal of Moles
  • Resurfacing Lasers
  • Removal of Red Vessel Spots

Scabs typically fall off in 3-7 days depending on your skin and treatment protocol. You would want to make sure you get the best scab care such that you reap the optimal results from your laser treatment!

Steps to Advanced Scab Care Post Laser

Step 1: Mechanical Protection
Prevention of further mechanical damage.
Avoidance of hot water, abrasives, microbeads, rough towels, mechanical friction, picking over the scab
 This is pertinent to allow your raw skin to heal up well.
Additional trauma can result in unintended damge and may even cause scarring! 

Step 2: Moisturisation
Be generous with moisturisation.
Moisturise every hour for the first 48 hours post treatment and scale it down to 5x a day for 5 more days thereafter. 
Moisturisation is key to give sufficient moisture for skin to soak up and heal as it is usually dry post treatment.
Use of RAI Post Laser Intensive Recovery Serum before your moisturiser is highly recommended for decreasing inflammation and decreased risk of PIH. 

Step 3: UV Protection
 Use an umbrella for 1 month post laser treatment whenever going out. 
Sun block is typically applied in insufficient quantities by almost everyone! If you are diligent in applying 3 x 50 cent coin worth of sun block over the face every 80 minutes, then you will be getting the intended SPF 50 as stated on the sunblock. Sun block can typically be applied 48 hours post laser treatment.
If you are sitting next to a window, try to shift your daily activities to be away from the window where UV-A easily penetrates. UV-A makes up 95% of UV rays from the sun and gives an insidious insult to our skin, especially when it is healing. UV exposure can lead to PIH which will compromise the intended laser results. 

Step 4: Treating Unintended Pigment Formation
Let your doctor know early if this occurs and treatment can be instituted to reverse unintended pigment formation. 
Risk of this developing can be decreased with RAI Post Laser Intensive Recovery Serum and with proper care, this can be avoided. 
*Dr Sin Yong is a regular user of Time Freeze Resurfacing Laser for scar treatments and papules/ moles removal. He also employs Nd YAG and vascular lasers in his practice to target pigments and vascular lesions respectively. A proper diagnosis of your skin condition by your treating doctor will form the basis for great results. Seek out the ideal laser for your skin condition before commencing any laser treatment! Always enquire if your treating doctor has specialised lasers for your skin condition rather than using a suboptimal laser setting for you skin!

Double Chin Removal

Patient: I have this double chin that makes me look excessively fat. What do you recommend? 

The double chin is a common problem in both men and women and takes away definition from our lower face. It is an area where fat accumulates and there is pretty much nothing we can do about it. A rigid programme of exercise could help but a mere bit. 

Is there a way for us to remove the double chin, to create a good lower face definition?

Steps To Elimination of Double Chin

1) Assessment of double chin cause 
Fats vs Skin laxity 

2) Selection of treatment to target the root cause
Ogee Touch or Neck Skylift Threadlift technique can eliminate the double chin. 

3) Combination therapy
Yields even better results

For this double chin result, Dr Sin Yong utilised the neck skylift threadlift technique for immediate tightening of the double chin. This is immediate post procedure where some swelling is still present.

The procedure generally takes 15 minutes and yields even better results when the swelling has subsided.
