6 tell-tale signs of aging and how to tackle them

$

For all of us ladies, the dreadful term ‘aging’ is almost jarring to our ears. And with the plethora of negative connotations surrounding the word ‘aging’, we can’t help but cringe when the years start to pile up on us.

With aging, comes the ugly consequences of a loss of volume and couple that with the laws of gravity that’s at play, the worst enemy that befalls us all; sagginess.

Our once taut and cherubic face has now developed additional folds at the chin department and not to mention, our once proud and perky bust and buttock areas are now bowing down to the dominant effects of aging.

And while aging takes an inevitable toll on our once young and vibrant body, here are six tell-tale signs that aging has finally caught up with us as we enter the early autumn of our lives.

1. Wrinkles

Wrinkles – The hateful lines that reveal themselves on our faces, as age creeps up on us. With wrinkles being closely correlated to aging, it has now become synonymous to the word ‘old’.

The creases that crumple the smooth surface of our skin, is no doubt, one of the most revealing signs of aging.

And while wrinkles are a common sight as we age, the hideous lines do significant damage to our facial appearance.

As wrinkles pop up on our forehead to the corners of our eyes, the creases disrupt the velvety appearance of the face, extinguishing all signs of youth and vitality.

 

2. Hollow cheeks

Like that of a chubby baby, a full and plump facial countenance always reflects freshness and undoubted youth.

However, as the painful process of aging sets in, our skin not only loses elasticity, but subcutaneous fat also siginificantly depletes in our cheek area.

With the absence of the supportive structure of the facial skin coupled with a significant loss of volume on the cheek area, these cause our cheeks to sag, giving rise to the gaunt and scraggy appearance of cheeks that amplifies the haggardness as one enters the territory of aging.

 

3. Jowls

If you realise that your lower jaw has a new saggy visitor, you are officially welcomed to the aging club. Jowls, as we call it, is the skin in our lower cheeks that hangs slackly along or crumbles below the jawline.

As suspected, the culprit behind the unsightly flap is none other than aging. The loss of collagen and elasticity to keep the jawline firm and taut contributes significantly to the formation of jowls.

With a loosely hanging fold, it robs us of that well sculpted facial countour that spells fresh-faced like no other.

 

4. Turkey neck

Think it sounds ugly? Well, turkey neck is just as repelling a sight as it sounds. With age, comes the inescapable consequences of thinning skin and weakened connective tissues and with that concoction, delivers the ugliest of product; crumply folds of skin gathering at the neck area.

Turkey necks are unsightly, to say the least, making us look much older than we actually are.

Betrayed by the disagreeable rolls that nestle on our neck area, turkey neck is undeniable one of the most indicative signs of aging and much can be done to roll back the years (no pun intended!)

 

5. Saggy and smaller breasts

We know we are have encroached upon the domains of aging when our once perky breasts now droop as despondently as our self-esteem.

For many of us ladies, our breasts are considered our prized possessions and when they succumb to the detrimental consequences of aging and the forces of gravity, our self-confidence, unavoidably takes a plunge.

Like the rest of the body that take a hit when aging strikes, our breasts are no exception. With the loss of skin elasticity that accompany the process of aging, it comes as no surprise that sagginess in the breast department would undoubtedly occur.

But it is more than just sagginess that contribute to our bosomy woes. Depletion in fat, tissue and mammary glands bring about a new set of gloom as we find our bras to be much roomier than before.

 

6. Saggy and unattractive buttocks

When hours at the gym, isn’t delivering the Brazilian butt of your dreams, it might be… you guessed it, aging coming between you and your tight and perky butt.

But more than just the tiresome consequences of aging that is contributing to our unattractive bums, the forces of gravity is also responsible for our buttocks to go irreparably south.

And as the story goes, aging causes the loss of skin elasticity but with gravity in the equation, it seems as though there is no escaping from a saggy and cellulite laden bottom… Or is there?

 

Amaris B Clinic; the solution to your saggy woes

Butt Enhancement

Fight signs of aging and regain your self-confidence with  enhancement services. Buttock Enhancement (via free fat transfer), one of Amaris B Clinic’s strong suits, is capable of sculpting some deserving curves into your butt and take your confidence to yet another level.

During the  procedure, the fats used to enhance the buttocks are usually extracted from more corpulent or areas with excess fats on the body such as the stomach, hips, lower back and thighs. As the fats belong to the patient, there is little chance of rejection.

With Amaris B Clinic’s Butt enhancement, say hello to a rejuvenated bum that fills your jeans to perfection.

ADR-C Breast Enhancement

With Amaris B. Clinic helping many fulfill their Body Sculpting and Contouring needs since 2005, ADR-C breast enhancement is one of their signature treatments.

On average, one breast is usually about a fifth of a cup size larger than the other. Just to keep abreast of the subject, it’s also reported that almost 70% of women are not happy with their breasts may it be the size or breast asymmetry.

Push-up bras are perhaps an example why fuller bosoms are important for a woman.

They not only lift the breasts but also, and arguably more importantly, her confidence as well. But not many are willing to go the silicone route and if you’re one of them; it’s not the end of the road.

HOW DOES BREAST EHANCEMENT WITH ADR-C WORK?

A fat grafting procedure, this treatment transfers fat tissue from a part of your body that is unwanted such as your abdomen, tummy, thighs or any other areas to your breasts. The procedure involves 2 steps – harvesting and injection.

Excess fat from other parts of the body is acquired via liposuction. The fat tissue will be carefully purified and harvested to maintain the integrity of the fat cells.

It will then be gently processed into liquid form and injected into the breast area. No risks of ruptures, leaks or shifts usually associated implants.

Recovery time is also much faster than the standard breast implant surgery.

When it comes to combatting problem areas that gravity and aging bring about,  is the secret to defying the laws of gravity and reverse the signs of aging.

Led by Dr. Ivan Puah, a renowned aesthetics doctor in the field of body sculpting and aesthetic medicine, Amaris B. Clinic is key to all your  needs.

6 ways for men to appear more confident and successful

$

Cash. Car. Condominium. Credit card. Country-club membership. The 5 magical C’s, aka the yardstick of every man’s social standing in Singapore, is undoubtedly, the goal that every man lusts after.

Achieving that 5 C’s is evidently, no walk in the park and for many, it is a tedious uphill climb to the peak of success.

And while it may take a while to get to the big boys’ table, looking good and confident is just as important a process to prepare you for your ultimate success.

They say looks are not everything, but looks are definitely something in the magical world of success.

And so, while giving success time to brew, it’s now time for you to look the part as you enter the world of wealth and success.

  1. Erase those dark eye circles

Dark. Dreadful. Disastrous. Dark eye circles are as ominous as they look, denying you of not only a youthful appearance, but loom forbiddingly over the vibrancy of success.

Dark eye circles reflect the impression of perpetual fatigue, which is definitively, not a good sign when it comes to looking the part of being a successful looking man.

The dark eye circles that besiege your eye sockets drain you of the appearance of freshness and vitality and that in itself, is a wedge between you and success.

  1. Suit up that lean physique

Suits – a symbol of masculine power in the working society. And while it is true that a suit can help to seemingly boost your social standing, a flabby physique trapped in a suit will however, do you in.

A lean and sculpted body not only enhances your image of success, but also conveys the notion of discipline, a key element when it comes to being a successful individual.

With the folds that spill over your body-hugging suit, it gives the impression of a sloppy looking you and that is an image you want to steer away from.

Looking sharp is key to looking successful, so trim off the excess fat and pair that body with the sleekest of suits and you are well on your way to looking a million bucks.

  1. Iron those wrinkles out

A successful man has the world at his feet, NOT all over his face!

Having wrinkles all over your face not only reveals that age has finally caught up with the perpetually exhausted-looking you, but also washes away that robust aura of vivacity that surrounds dynamic and successful individuals.

The extra folds and creases essentially scrunch up your face and as such, masking every ounce of freshness, and not to mention confidence, within you.

And so, the solution is simple, smooth out those pesky lines with botox and you will find your self-esteem dwindle no more.

  1. It’s ‘bye, boo’ with those man boobs

Let’s face it, men. The boob business belongs to the ladies and keeping those man boobs at bay is definitely the right way to go.

Man boobs are no doubt a man’s worst nemesis and many who suffer from this condition find their self-confidence plummet to an all time low.

Man boobs are a hassle at every turn for those who are victimized by the condition, to say the very least.

From the choice of clothes to interaction with the fairer gender, the presence of man boobs is nothing but a disservice to your appearance and an undisputed impediment when it come to attracting the opposite sex.

Fortunately, with procedures such as gynecomastia surgery, looking successful and confident is not that tall an order anymore.

  1. Lose the zits, have a seat (at the big boys table)

Nothing spells adolescence like a face plagued with acne. The association of acne with juvenility heralds disaster like no other, should you want to establish yourself as a mature and successful looking man.

It is no secret that acne takes a toll on our self-esteem and with the unsightly bumps, they not only inadvertently cause your confidence to take a plunge as you become exceedingly self-conscious, but may also ultimately be the very humps and bumps that hinder your route to success.

This is in stark contrast to a clean-cut face that instills confidence and accentuates approachability, factors that steer you in the right trajectory towards success.

So tackle those zits before they start to tackle your confidence.

  1. Mend that shiny crown

Nothing defines ‘unappealing’ better than a tuft of missing head on the crown of a man’s head.

Be it genetics or a sign that age has crept up on you, hair loss is a predicament many men find themselves in.

This unfortunate condition unquestionably strips a man of his appearance of success and the emptiness at the crest of his head is probably reflective of the waning confidence on the inside.

Hair loss crumbles a man’s successful image like no other and is consequentially the culprit to the lack of man’s mojo.

While hair loss may be a condition that plagues many men, it is important to fight hair loss in order to defend your image of success and confidence.

The magic to a more confidence and successful looking you

When it comes to aesthetic problems that afflict the male gender, Amaris B Clinic is an aesthetics clinic that knows it all.

Equipped with a multitude of aesthetic services, Amaris B Clinic is here to put your manly woes to a halt.

From botox to body contouring, Amaris B Clinic tackles your every aesthetic trouble, helping you to boost your image of masculinity.

Follucular Unit Extraction (FUE) Hair Transplantation

Amaris B. Clinic utilises the SAFE system, the latest powered device that uses blunt dissection to isolate the follicular units from the surrounding tissue.

Find out about the Kpop Rania Plastic Surgery

$

0

Unlike Hollywood that is open with the big bad world of sex, drugs and plastic surgery, the K-pop industry loves keeping everything under wraps and going to great lengths to deny any involvement in plastic surgery.

This is why the Korean entertainment media spends most of their time speculating or rather gossiping about celebrities who’ve gone under the knife.

Today, instead of speculating, we’re here to discuss facts, and the band up for our dissemination is K-pop girl group Rania.

 

Lee Tae Eun Plastic Surgery Transformation

This five member girl group needs no introduction, so let’s start our Rania plastic surgery thesis with sub vocalist Lee Tae Eun, better known as Ta-e to fans.

With her school girl charm and her baby face, it’s no wonder Ta-e was a model for Model School Looks school uniforms before her Rania days.

She also appeared in the 3D movie Hype Nation so it looks like Ta-e is no stranger to fame and the sacrifices you have to make to get your foot in the door.

Could one of the sacrifices be altering your looks with Rania plastic surgery?

Your nose is the most prominent feature on your face. Although it can’t move or change shape and merely sits on your face, it is a sort of decorative item that can make or break your face.

Think about it, wouldn’t everyone look SO much better if we all had sharp, slender noses?

Have you met a person who ever looked good with a flat nose? *Crickets*. Our point exactly. This being said, it’s no surprise that Ta-e felt the need to fix her most prominent feature.

Her nose wasn’t exactly her best feature. Ta-e probably tried  to live with her nose but having to constantly see it on gossip sites looking less than perfect must have driven her to get Rania plastic surgery. Ta-e’s nose job is subtle but noticeable.

One can see the increase in the height of her nasal bridge and better definition towards the tip. We’re not a fan of drastic makeovers so this Rania plastic surgery suits us just fine.

There’s subtle and then there’s in your face. The above Rania plastic surgery is the latter. If you haven’t already spotted it, it’s Ta-e’s eyes.

The singer has unimpressive eye size in the first picture, but the second picture sees her elevated to pop star material. Coincidence or Rania plastic surgery?

To be fair, we’ll credit her excellent make up skills too, but there’s no denying she’s had epicanthoplasty to lengthen her eyes horizontally and blepharoplasty for that all elusive extra eye fold.

The after results have got Ta-e looking more manga doll than sleepy student!

 

Jang Jin Young aka Xia Plastic Surgery Transformation

Our Rania plastic surgery review continues with Jang Jin Young, better known to fans as Xia.

Before her debut with Rania, Xia was a model for Suiskin Cosmetics so as such we know she probably had luminous skin.

But what about her facial features? Did they match up to model expectations or did she get a little Rania plastic surgery help? Let’s find out.

Rhinoplasty is listed as the third most dangerous surgical procedure, yet from the looks of it, you’d think it was more a lunch time pop in than a full day of hospitalization and general anaesthesia.

From the looks of it, Xia is one of those people willing to risk her health in the name of beauty. Was it worth it?

Hmm, judging by her after pictures, we think that if you’re going to get Rania plastic surgery the results should be jaw dropping.

While her nose bridge is taller and slimmer and the tip has been reshaped, we think Xia’s surgeon could’ve done a better job on this one!

 

Kim Da Rae aka Di Plastic Surgery Transformation

The Rania plastic surgery line up keeps changing.  But Kim Da Rae, aka Di has been the mainstay of the girl group.

Come what may, the main rapper gives edge to the music and is definitely here to stay. Just like her constant presence in the group, Di’s looks have not altered much post debut.

Unlike her group mates who have relied on Rania plastic surgery to get where they are, the only drastic change we note from Di is her hair colour!

In a plastic surgery mad world, we’d like to salute Di for not letting the pressures of the industry get to her!

 

Sharon Park Plastic Surgery Transformation

Newest newcomer Sharon Park is the latest to join Rania, and from what we know, she’s 25 and a former shop model.

No ugly pre debut pictures of her just yet but fret not, we’re pretty sure they’ll be making their rounds on the internet soon enough and when they do we’ll be the first to document it!

 

Yoo Joo Yi aka Jooyi Plastic Surgery Transformation

Our Rania plastic surgery analysis ends with Yoo Joo Yi better known to fans as Jooyi. If you’ve heard Jooyi sing then you know she’s the real deal and it’s no surprise too as Jooyi is the main vocalist of the group.

The singer has a degree from DIMA Dong-Ah Institute of Media and Arts and did duets with famous singers in OSTs. Could someone as professional as Jooyi have a side of her that is vain enough to drive her to seek Rania plastic surgery?

Rhinoplasty seems to be the flavour du jour of Rania plastic surgery as Jooyi seems to be the third member who’s undergone this procedure.

Her pre debut nose wasn’t the envy of many due to its  lack of height, access of flesh and oversized tip! Thank goodness for Rania plastic surgery or Jooyi would’ve been stuck with that ugly nose forever.

She now has the features completely opposite of what we described beforehand.

 

Let’s take a look at the girls transformation with Rania plastic surgery. Check out their evolution right before your eyes!

They were pretty before but now they’re beyond stunning thanks to Rania plastic surgery!

We’ve got to say, that in comparison to other K-pop girl bands, the procedures and numbers for Rania plastic surgery seem pretty tame.

In an industry where looks matter as much as talent, we won’t be surprised if the numbers don’t stay the same for long!

[UK trend] Vagina surgery ‘sought by girls as young as nine’

$
0
0

A leading adolescent gynaecologist in the UK said she was concerned GPs were referring rising numbers of young girls who wanted an operation.

Labiaplasty, as the surgery is known, involves the lips of the vagina being shortened or reshaped.

The NHS says it should not be carried out on girls before they turn 18.

In 2015-16, more than 200 girls under 18 had labiaplasty on the NHS. More than 150 of the girls were under 15.

Some experts fear that pornography and images viewed through social media are leading young girls to have unrealistic perceptions of how their genitals should look.

‘Worrying trend for young girls’

Dr Crouch, who chairs the British Society for Paediatric and Adolescent Gynaecology, said in her work for the NHS she was yet to see a girl who needed the operation.

“Girls will sometimes come out with comments like, ‘I just hate it, I just want it removed,’ and for a girl to feel that way about any part of her body – especially a part that’s intimate – is very upsetting.”

Anna – not her real name – considered having labiaplasty from the age of 14.

“I just picked up from somewhere that it wasn’t neat enough or tidy enough and I think I wanted it to be smaller.

“People around me were watching porn and I just had this idea that it should be symmetrical and not sticking out.

“I thought that was what everyone else looked like, because I hadn’t seen any normal everyday [images] before then.

“I remember thinking, ‘If there’s surgery for it, then clearly I’m not the only one who wants this done, and maybe it won’t be that big a deal.’.”

She later decided not to pursue having an operation.

“I’m totally glad I didn’t get it done. I didn’t need it. I look totally normal. Completely and utterly normal.”

Girls should wait till they are fully grown

Dr Gail Busby, lead adolescent gynaecologist at St Mary’s Hospital in London, says it is important for girls and their parents to remember:

  • In adolescence, the labia are still growing – with the inner lips growing first – so it is normal for them to appear prominent. Girls should not compare themselves to adult women
  • By age 18, the outer lips will have grown. If girls can hold off seeking an operation until adulthood, their genitals’ appearance will have changed – removing the initial reason for wanting surgery
  • Surgery will probably lead to scarring and – as the labia are still developing – could lead to it becoming asymmetrical in adulthood
  • Do not feel alone. Half the girls in your class will be in the same position, it is a normal part of development – it is just that no-one talks about it openly
  • If parents wish to allay fears, take your daughter to a GP
  • In some instances, if there are deeper concerns regarding body image, it may help to create some coping strategies

What are the options for Acne Scar Treatment in Singapore?

$
0
0

Those who had an episode of acne outbreak will understand how frustrating it is to see those red angry acne on your face.

For acne that goes away and doesn’t leave acne scars, oh my god, that’s perfect. But often times, acne will leave acne scars on one’s face.

Long time acne sufferers will understand what I’m trying to say, when acne leaves scars, and you feel totally helpless. It affects one’s self esteem and it brings confidences to an all time low.

So this begs the question, what are acne scars and what are the different types of acne scar treatment options in Singapore?

What are Acne Scars?

Acne is caused when your skin’s pores get engorged with excess oil, dead skin cells and bacteria, which result in the pores swelling causing it to break the follicle walls.

Acne causes inflammation of the skin, and this often results in the skin being wounded. However as the acne wounds heal, an abundance of collagen can be left behind, forming acne scars that make the skin appear uneven.

What are the Different Types of Acne Scars

First let’s us explore the most common and different types of acne scars.

Ice Pick Scars

These are deeper than they are wide, with jagged edges. They look like deep pits and are of varying sizes. They are the most common form of acne scars.

Boxcar Scars

They are broad, rectangular depressions on your skin with steep, defined edges and are quite similar to chickenpox scars. They normally appear on your face but can occur on other parts as well. They can be shallow or deep.

Rolling Scars

They are named like this because they are broad depression with rounded and sloping edges, which make them appear in a wave-like shape.

Hypertrophic Scars

These scars are caused when the body produces too much collagen as acne wounds heal. Because of the excess collagen inside them, they end up having a raised surface – resulting in to mass of raised tissues on the skin’s surface. Simply put, scarred tissue is raised above healthy tissue.

Acne Scar Treatment

The first step of acne scar treatment would be acne scar removal, which is to prevent new acne from forming.

You will not be able to treat the acne scars when you constantly have new acne forming on your skin. If you do so, this will only cause your acne to worsen.

Once you have stopped new acne, you will be able to customise treatment based on your skin.

Here are the different types and costs of acne scar treatments in Singapore that you can consider:

Fractional CO2 Laser

Fractional laser treatment is a non-invasive treatment that uses a device to deliver a laser beam divided into thousands of microscopic treatment zones that target a fraction of the skin at a time.

Fractional laser uses light energy to create thousands of microscopic channels in the skin which are surrounded by areas of healthy and untreated skin.

The treated areas stimulate production of new collagen, plumping up the skin and smoothing out the acne scars.

Dermabrasion

Dermabrasion is an intensive skin resurfacing treatment, and is most often used to improve the look of facial skin left scarred by accidents or previous surgery, or to smooth out fine facial wrinkles, such as those around the mouth.

Dermabrasion produces changes by carefully controlling the depth of skin damage, from the top to deeper layers of the epidermis, and extend into the reticular dermis.

This produces a wound that heals in a manner that is cosmetically superior to what was there originally, which will be a good treatment for acne scars.

Subcision

Subcision is a safe and effective acne scar treatment. It is a minor surgical procedure and is performed using a special hypodermic needle inserted through a puncture in the skin surface.

The sharp edge of the needle is used to break fibrotic strands that are tethering the scar to the underlying tissue.

The release of the fibrotic strands and new collagen deposition caused by wound healing leads to cosmetic improvement of the acne scar.

Subcision is usually be combined with other treatments such as Fractional Laser for maximum effect.

Chemical Peel

Chemical peel is a treatment in which a chemical solution is applied to the skin, which makes it “blister” and eventually peel off.

This treatment essentially removes old skin so new skin can grow in it’s place.

The new skin is usually smoother and less wrinkled than the old skin, which helps for acne scar treatment.

Depending on the strength of the peel, from mild to deep peel, this treatment will be able to penetrate different layers of the skin, and for people with deep acne scars, it will be able to reach the root.

Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers can also be a good acne scar treatment whereby it will help reduce the appearance of the acne scars. Fillers can show results by filling up the depressed scars.

However, do note that fillers are only temporary as the body breaks down the key ingredient of fillers – hyaluronic acid – over time, which, depending on the fillers, can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years.

Fillers are an effective acne scar treatment in Singapore especially for rolling scars, and also less defined boxcar scars.

The cost for fillers for acne scars range from $500 – $1400 per treatment, depending on how many syringes are used.

Infini Fractional Radiofrequency

Infini Fractional Radiofrequency is a minimally invasive treatment to reduce the appearance acne scars.

Q Switch Laser

Q Switch Laser is a beam of energy at a specific wavelength (1064nm) which is applied to the skin and is absorbed by coloured pigments.

Acne inflammation causes the skin to produce pigments, which are the cause of acne scars. This laser will effectively target the coloured pigments. Here is a case study of the Q Switch Laser.

7 Visible Signs of Aging in Asians

Be it our difference in gender or nationality, we all come to the similar conclusion that aging is the worst!

Did you know that your neck, hands and eyes are delicate areas to pay particular attention to, in your attempt to cover up the piling age?

Did you also know that both men and women age at different speeds?

Like all things that are unfair in life, women face the brutal process of aging much earlier than their male counterparts, hence the need for not only consistent, but also early preventive measures.

But it is more than just the different genders that bear clear disparity in the aging process, Asians, unlike our Caucasian counterparts age differently.

Just what are the 7 most telling signs that aging is well underway for us Asian ladies?

It’s best to detect and tackle those sneaky signs of aging before it’s too late!

1) Dark spots

Dark spots, melasma or commonly known as hyperpigmentation is one of the surest signs of aging for us Asian ladies.

We find our once clear and bright complexion conquered by the nastiest and most hideous of dark spots, causing the facial countenance to look ‘dirty’ and unsightly.

With many culprits behind these repellent dark spots such as UV exposure and other environmental issues, we ladies find ourselves put into checkmate when it comes to dealing with this hyperpigmentation affair that we can’t seem to shirk.

With dark spots being every woman’s nemesis, it is heartening to know that there are indeed solutions to combat dark spots.

Laser treatments that directly target this stubborn hyperpigmentation will help to rid the dark spots off your face, giving you that clean and clear complexion that you so desire.

2) Sagging skin

Sagging skin is awful, and there are just no two ways about this.

As we age, elastin fibres break down, causing our skin to sag and stretch. Pair that with UV damage, and our skin loses its natural ability to snap back after stretching, making the saggy skin a predication we ladies, simply cannot avoid.

But it isn’t just the loss of elastin and UV damage that are contributors to saggy skin.

Did you know that with age, comes the gradual loss of our skin’s ability to shed dead skin cells?

Making it one of the key factors leading to saggy skin!

Not only does floppy and saggy skin add years to us, it essentially places a wedge between youthfulness and us.

However, all hope is not lost as aesthetic procedures such as medical grade skin peel that aids

in the process of removing dead skin cells, and threadlift which gives giving your saggy skin the lift and tightening that immediately rejuvenates your facial contour.

3) Dull complexion

There is something about a young lady that is thoroughly absent in middle-aged women – that glow.

That magically glow that reflects youth and radiance are quickly snuffed out when we hit the aging years.

And with the usual suspects such as, exposure to UV rays, biological and environmental factors that we just cannot avoid, at play, it’s no wonder that magical glow of youth wanes with age.

A dull complexion not only attaches added years to you but also exudes an overall impression of being worn and gloomy, which may not leave the best impressions.

Thankfully, a dull complexion can be reversed with microdermabrasion; the most effective and safest technique that exfoliates dead skin cells, restoring that youthful glow you thought you’d lost for good and reversing the signs of aging.

4) Wrinkles

This is a no brainer here. Wrinkles are basically aging, officially knocking on your door.

The most repulsive thing about wrinkles is the furtive manner in which they make their entrance.

One day you’ve got a smooth and taut complexion, the next, you’ll find those sneaky lines tracing the ends of your eyes and the sides of your mouths.

As aging creeps up on us, we produce significantly less collagen than before, resulting in thinner and more fragile skin.

With less support, wrinkle formation comes with ease.

But it is essential that we tackle this first sign of aging as wrinkles can take over our face in no time should we disregard them.

So, when the first streak of wrinkle emerges, head on down to your trusty aesthetics doctor for a botox and non-invasive laser treatment to laser all that crease away for that perfectly smooth countenance.

5) Dry skin

Sadly, it isn’t just saggy skin that comes about when aging sets in.

Dry skin, another common phenomenon is an agony that aging Asian ladies experience.

Alongside sun damage, the aging body also produces lesser natural oil, causing our skin to dry out and lack the necessary moisture.

But more than just that, the loss of hormones as we age also leads to a desiccated skin.

Like a shrivelled fruit, dry skin causes us to look much older than we actually are and not to mention that pale complexion (ugh!)

When it comes to dry skin, it’s all about moisture, moisture and more moisture.

And when consuming truckloads of water and slapping on layers of moisturising just aren’t doing the trick, aesthetic procedures such as microinjection give your skin that instant boost of rejuvenation, hydration and whitening.

So let your skin drink up for that revitalising glow!

6) Patchy skin

What’s worse than dry skin? Patchy skin!

As if dry skin isn’t doing its best to bring out the worst in us (aesthetically), patchy skin tags along in this game of ‘who can make the aging process more painful’.

It’s not like we don’t already know that UV exposure and the breakdown of elastin cause a myriad of problems for our skin as we age. But guess what?

Patchy skin has decided to join the signs of aging party, in making aging an even more tormenting process to deal with.

Our saggy, wrinkly and stretched out skin results in the blotchy and patchy skin as we age, giving our facial countenance that uneven and unattractive appearance.

When faced with uneven skin, a combination of Ultherapy and laser procedures that help to stimulate collagen growth is the way to go for zapping that blotchy skin away.

7) Open pores

Sorry ladies, if there’s anything airbrushed we’re hankering after, it’s only going to be brushed away as we hit out the late 20s and beyond, making it a thing of the past.

Our skin’s inability to shed off dead skin as we age causes our pores to enlarge, making the appearance of our pores much larger than our heydey.

But that’s not all!

The elasticity of the skin, which is responsible for a tauter skin texture and making our pores appear smaller, weakens with age, thereby resulting in more dilated pores.

Frequent exfoliation of the skin does help to postpone the resurgence of enlarged pores.

However, nothing works more magically than microdermabrasion and medical grade skin peel to tighten your pores, giving you that flawless airbrush look of youth.

How do we solve the signs of Aging?

So there we have it, the most depressing set of information we need to know about our Asian skin as aging starts trickling in.

But before you bow down in defeat in the face of aging, what would you say if we told you that we’ve got just the perfect solution to solve these 7 most problematic skin aging issues at a go?

No Hymen, No Honey!

There is no doubt that there are many things on the rise in China; the economy, the population, the haze index.

But amongst all these, there is an addition to the list, ‘Hymenoplasty’.  What is that you ask? Well, it’s basically a surgical reconstruction of the hymen.

This news comes as no surprise since China is ranked second in countries with most plastic surgery procedures done, on the heel of the current plastic surgery capital of the world, South Korea.

It seems like being youthful on the outside doesn’t quite do it for women these days. Rather, women are looking to be new again on the ‘inside’, hence the rise of the hymen reconstruction procedure.

The procedure, aptly nicknamed ‘revirginity’, aims to cause bleeding during post-nuptial intercourse. The surgery normally lasts no more than half an hour and can cost in the region of 5000RMB (SGD1,085).

Director of gynecology at Beijing Wuzhou Women’s Hospital, Zhou Hong, said that more and more women are turning to surgery after lying to their fiancés about their sex lives.

While in some countries hymen reconstruction is illegal, in others, it is available in private clinics and public hospitals; such is the situation in many Muslim countries.

In the East, the procedure is becoming more and more common with the appeal of marrying a virgin.

There are two main methods for the hymen reconstruction procedure; either suturing a torn hymen or using a piece of vaginal tissue, complete with its blood supply and create a new hymen.

But it’s more than just being a virgin all over again for women. Doctors argue that it provides therapeutic benefits as well – some women reconstruct the hymen as victims of rape or in order to forget abusive relationships.

Regardless of the reason in getting a revirginity procedure done, one thing’s for sure, ‘Hymenorrhaphy’ is bringing sexy back!

UK Man gets SGD$40k Plastic Surgery to look like Footballer David Beckham

According to The Sun, a jobless teenager by the name of Jack Johnson spent SGD$40,000 to look like his idol, ex Manchester United legend David Beckham.

Johnson did a variety of cosmetic procedures, including Botox, tanning injections, lip fillers and having his teeth done, in order to emulate the 41-year-old dad-of-four.

Johnson has funded his plastic surgery largely with loans, and since he is unemployed, he is paying back those loans with his SGD$24,000 a year welfare cheque.

Even when critised, Jack Johnson has no regrets whatsoever, “I wouldn’t look how I do today if I hadn’t taken out loans so no regrets.”

Johnson is thinking of undergoing liposuction to slim down so he can be as toned as Beckham.

He is even thinking of changing his wardrobe to fill it with branded fashionable apparel so he can look like his idol.

And here is a side by side comparison:

What do you think?

He also claims that he’s going to change his name to Beckham via deed poll, as well as training to become a professional footballer. Only after he’s had his gastric band next year, though.

Introducing Fat Grafting at Amaris B. Clinic

Fat grafting does wonders for our appearances and produces one of the most natural results.

For many, fat grafting is their go-to, holy grail procedure when it comes to maintaining their youth.

What’s better than having your fat removed from a problematic area and have them injected in another body part to bring out the best in you?

For many, the aversion to having foreign objects implanted into our bodies is one of the prime reasons for not opting for aesthetic procedures, but fat grafting is a procedure you never have to shun as it will put your mind at ease when it comes to all things au naturel.

Just what can we expect from this procedure called fat grafting and what are some of the information you will need to know before you embark on this life-changing experience?

Let’s begin!

What is fat grafting and how is it done?

Fat transfer, or also known as fat grafting, is a procedure where fat is harvested from the body via liposuction procedure.

The harvested fat is then placed in a centrifuge to separate the fat and non-fat cells.

The fat cells are then injected back into the body where the area of the deficit is injected with fat cells using small needles or cannulas.

The fat cells are carefully placed in multiple tissue planes to ensure that it is well oxygenated and nutrient-filled so that the cells will be able to develop a new blood supply.

For the fat cells that survive, they will provide the soft tissue volume while the body will merely absorb the fat that does not survive. 

What are the common areas of fat grafting?

There are some areas for fat grafting to be performed on, the most common areas for fat grafting are the face, breast and buttocks.

With age, comes the sagginess of our facial contours due to the loss of fat.

With a fat grafting procedure on the face, fat is typically placed in the cheeks, lips, hollows of eyes, nasolabial folds (smile lines), and even hollowed temples.

Requiring only a small volume of fat to improve these deficient areas, fat grafting is a popular procedure when it comes to restoring youth in the facial department.

For many, fat grafting is a more comfortable option as compared to a breast implant, to augment the size and shape of their breasts.

Much can be done to enhance the shape of the hips and butt using the fat grafting method.

Upon doing a liposuction procedure to remove fat from the stomach, the fat is then transferred and redistributed into the buttock area, giving the buttock, a Brazilian butt lift, or also known as a BBL.

How Long can fat transfer last?

The upside of a fat grafting procedure is that, once the doctor has achieved the desired look, the results can last for several years.

However, depending on the body part that fat grafting was performed on: Areas with less movement such as the midface and cheek areas, will retain the injected fat for a significantly longer period as compared to areas such as the nasolabial fold area the nose and mouth which are subjected to more movement.

According to doctors, once the graft takes hold and is set over the first 12 to 18 months, the final results should be evident for many years.

What is the recovery period for a fat grafting procedure?

The recovery duration for a fat grafting procedure takes about two to three weeks.

However, this is also dependent on what body part the fat grafting procedure was performed on and also your age.

“Bruising” may be expected for 7 to 10 days after a facial fat grafting procedure and expect to swell to be the worst for the first 3 to 4 days.

However, the swelling is expected to subside by the 7tth to 10th day and would improve significantly in 3 weeks.

What to discuss at your consultation?

It is crucial for you to discuss with your doctor extensively as to what your desired results are. It is advised to

1) Have the doctor draw a picture to highlight the exact injection points so that you are not caught off guard.

2) Do also establish expectations and ask what constitutes swelling versus the final results to avoid disappointment.

3) Ask to see several of the doctor’s before and after photos instead of relying on “stock” photos for the order for the doctor to have a clearer understanding and to be able to deliver the desired results.

How to choose a doctor for fat grafting?

It is extremely important to choose a doctor with extensive experience in fat grafting procedures as he or she will not only be able to provide you with the experience and surgical maturity but are also able to direct you while adjusting to your wants.

It is also crucial to choose a doctor whom you are comfortable with where he or she is paying close attention to your needs and wants.

Shocking Nine Muses (9Muses) Plastic Surgery Changes

$

We all know that the Korean entertainment industry is obsessed with plastic surgery.

You basically have to get a nose job if you even want to be considered for an audition.

In an attempt to maintain a youthful appearance, singers and actresses have done their fair share of time in the plastic surgeon’s office.

A little injection here or there they can often get away with, but time after time, they come out from under the knife looking completely different to what they used to look like to the point where you have to question if it is even the same person!

However, it can’t be denied that many a K-pop idol’s career has launched remarkably after going under the knife.

Today’s focus will be on the K-pop band Nine Muses. These are the good, the bad and the ugly of Nine Muses plastic surgery and what the stars looked like before they went under the knife.

You be the judge of it.

 

Moon Huyna Plastic Surgery Transformation

Kicking off our Nine Muses plastic surgery discussion is Moon Huyna.

The main vocalist of the group featured in  many MVs and CFs before debuting (she has the most modeling experience among all the members in the group, ranging all the way from fashion to product endorsement), and even appeared at Seoul Fashion Week in 2011.

Of course it comes as no surprise that Hyuna’s model good looks would lead her to a career as a K-pop idol.

Double eyelid surgery is so common in South Korea that nobody blinks an eye when their idols undergo Nine Muses plastic surgery to fix their defects.

Hyuna’s eyes have been subject to Nine Muses plastic surgery. Her eyes in the after picture is NOTHING like what they were in the before picture.

Clearly, Hyuna has undergone blepharoplasty to increase the size of her eyes and make them wider than the previous slits they were.

Along with double eyelid surgery, Hyuna’s next Nine Muses plastic surgery was to get her nose done. Her nose looked nothing significant before, what with the flat top and flared alar.

Now however, things have changed once Hyuna had Nine Muses plastic surgery.

Now she has a delicate nose tip (although one nostril looks smaller than the other) and a bridge that is defined and prominent.

This Nine Muses plastic surgery pushes Hyuna from catalogue model to runway superstar!

 

Lee Hye Min aka Euarin Plastic Surgery Transformation

The next Nine Muses plastic surgery member is Lee Hye Min, but who goes by the name Euarin instead.

The name came about when Hyemin applied for the Nine Muses audition, but she thought it was shady so she applied under the pseudonym ‘Euaerin’, and once she won her spot, the CEO had already come to like the name so much that it became her stage name.

Her name isn’t the only thing that she’s changed about herself. Euaerin has done Nine Muses plastic surgery to her nose.

The tip has been reshaped to be less fleshy than before. Also, we can see the top of her nose bridge has more 3D definition than before where it was just a fleshy mess.

Was this Nine Muses plastic surgery a good call? Indeed, Euaerin looks much better than before with her reconstructed nose.

Further to her aforementioned Nine Muses plastic surgeries, Euaerin has also had a chin implant.

Her chin barely had any real estate on her face before but the after picture shows her with a pointy chin that has increased in surface area.

This surgery adds balance to her previously unbalanced features thanks to the genioplasty she got.

As a child, Euaerin was unfortunate to be born with single eyelids that were so tiny they barely registered on her face compared to her other features.

These days, her eyes tell a different story. They’re much bigger, wider and most importantly have double eyelids.

This she achieved through blepharoplasty and we honestly can’t say she looks any “less” Korean than someone with single eyelids.

 

Son Seung Ah Plastic Surgery Transformation

There’s beautiful and then there’s Son Seung Ah.

The vocalist and rapper trained for three years before joining Nine Muses during their “Dolls” promotions.

Although she was in the original line up, she postponed her debut to finish university first. Sungah has admitted to having a tattoo on her upper back.

But is that the only body modification she got or the only one she is willing to admit publicly?

Has Seungah undergone Nine Muses plastic surgery to improve her looks? Well the picture above should help clear all doubts and answer the question.

Look at her nose!

It has clearly been altered to achieve a more pointed tip towards the end. She probably did Asian short nose lengthening to add inches to her short nose, as well as inclusion of a Silicone implant to add height.

 

Park Kyung Ri aka Kyungri Plastic Surgery Transformation

Park Kyung Ri aka Kyungri was originally a part of Nine Muses’ first line-up, but  left for Star Empire Entertainment, then for Jellyfish Entertainment, and then for Medialine Entertainment (at the last agency is where she became a trainee alongside Hello Venus’ Lime, Dal Shabet’s Woohee, Kiss&Cry’s Soyumi, and Stellar’s Hyoeun).

However, she ultimately joined Nine Muses due to her height, and the fact that her image suited the group well.

In fact, Kyungri thinks she has the best looks in the group and wants to be the group’s mascot!

All that Nine Muses plastic surgery must have given her such incredible confidence!

Do you agree that Kyungri is the best looking Nine Muses plastic surgery member? Her pre debut pictures might change your mind!

Kyungri has lovely almond shaped eyes, but that’s about as good as it gets. She is lacking the double eyelids to complete her K-pop idol look.

Nine Muses plastic surgery comes to the rescue by way of blepharoplasty. Many people think this Nine Muses plastic surgery is only exclusive to Asians, but the fact is, as we age and the muscles of our eyelids weaken, it makes us look tired, and thus blepharoplasty will help remove excess skin and fat to make eyes look more refreshed. Think of it as the facelift of eyes.

Nine Muses plastic surgery is like a can of Pringles; once you pop (start) you can’t stop and it looks like Kyungri can’t stop fixing her face.

The singer also underwent rhinoplasty to increase the height of her upper nose, as well as refine the tip.

Her nose tip has gone from fat to ski jump tip, aided no doubt by the insertion of a Silicone implant.

 

Pho Hye Mi Plastic Surgery Transformation

Our next Nine Muses plastic surgery candidate was voted by her members to be at the bottom of a beauty ranking due to her forehead!

It’s none other than lead vocalist and maknae Pho Hye Mi.

Hyemi may not have a beautiful forehead but she does make up for it with her other features. Like……

Asian blepharoplasty, commonly termed double-eyelid surgery, refers to surgery designed to place a pretarsal crease in Asian eyes that are absent a fold.

Patients typically desire to look more bright-eyed and want to make applying eyeliner easier. Patients also seek to remove the puffy and tired look associated with a fatty upper lid.

Such is the case with Hyemi’s eyes, where they’ve gone from single eyelids to double eyelids with Nine Muses plastic surgery.

The same goals exist for rhinoplasty performed on Asians as for rhinoplasty performed on Caucasians, which is to build a natural-appearing structure that blends harmoniously with the face.

However, what differs is that Asians require augmentation in contrast to Caucasians who usually require a reduction.

Hyemi’s pre debut nose was too short for her face. The tip also appeared fleshy. Nine Muses plastic surgery has solved these issues for Hyemi by shaving down her tip, having it reshaped and building up her bridge height.

The after product has served to make her bring harmony to her face compared to previously.

 

Park Min Ha aka Minha Plastic Surgery Transformation

Park Min Ha aka Minha is known amongst fans as the one with the “derpy face”. We don’t see anything derpy about the vocalist’s face, but we do see signs of Nine Muses plastic surgery. Read on to find out which one.

We live in a visual world. For better or worse, men, women and even children understand that outward appearance elicits opinions from friends and strangers alike.

In the middle of that lies the nose. Rhinoplasty was one of the earliest cosmetic procedures performed, and for obvious reasons.

A century ago, clothing showed little skin and fashion hid a multitude of flaws. The nose was central literally and figuratively to the appearance.

An attractive nose could, and still does, overshadow a host of other features. Having said that, we can see why Minha has undergone rhinoplasty.

Who wouldn’t with a big fat nose like? Thankfully Minha’s surgeon has done an excellent job with her post debut nose as she now spots a slimmer more defined version of her old nose.

Maybe her plastic surgeon also got rid of the “derpy” expression in her post debut photo?

 

Ryu Sae Ra Plastic Surgery Transformation

Oldest member of the group is Ryu Sae Ra has branched out into acting among her other talents, which include playing the piano and violin.

Sera as she is commonly known is guilty of Nine Muses plastic surgery just like the rest of her group mates.

Let’s begin with her most drastic Nine Muses plastic surgery: Asian V-Line surgery is an operation for the wider U-shaped lower face designed to reduce the chin horizontally rather than vertically and thus slim the face.

The mandible is cut in several places, bones are removed, and the remaining bone is repositioned and stabilized.

Clearly, Sera has had this Nine Muses plastic surgery because her broad U shaped face has now “morphed” into the much desired V shape.

This gives the illusion that her face is slimmer and longer.

This Nine Muses plastic surgery may be less drastic but it is dangerous none the less, coming in at number three on the risky plastic surgery list.

We’re talking about rhinoplasty of course. Sera’s nose used to be a literal straight line at the tip, and incredibly bulky to top it off.

Things changed when she got rhinoplasty to achieve the slim, shapely nose she has today, where the length has been increased and the dorsum has been shaved down to become much narrower.

 

Lee Hyun Joo aka Lee Sem Plastic Surgery Transformation

Lee Hyun Joo, better known as Lee Sem rounds  up our Nine Muses plastic surgery.

The media has speculated Lee Sem got a boob job but we think her Nine Muses plastic surgery is a little closer to her face.

Lee Sem’s nose did an incredible 360 turn after Nine Muses plastic surgery. The singer had flared nostrils which made the tip of her nose look wide.

Rhinoplasty has helped reshape her nose and tone down the flared alar. Her nasal bridge is also ramrod straight and longer than before which tells us she’s had a Silicone implant.

Lee Sum’s nose looks much better now than it did before and she can credit Nine Muses plastic surgery for it.

Based on the picture above, we can see that Lee Sem underwent V line surgery to achieve the perfect V shape she has today.

Her face used to be broad at the base, ending in more of a U shape. Now when she smiles, her jawline is more pointed compared to before.

 

Let’s go through the transformation of Nine Muses throughout the years

For as long as we live in a world driven by looks and external appearances, plastic surgery will always be a booming industry, with an endless supply of K-pop idols in the making who will be willing to undergo to achieve their ambitions.

Did Kpop’s 4minute undergo plastic surgery?

4minute plastic surgery

No publicity is bad publicity. This four member K-pop group 4minute which we’re about to discuss has had their fair share of all kinds of bad publicity. One of their members was caught in a nude photo leak scandal and has been threatened to be dropped by the group’s manager. Another time, one of their vans was raided by fans at a concert. Then of course there are the constant rumours of whether or not the group has had plastic surgery.

The nude photo scandal aside, we’re here to discuss the 4Minute plastic surgery rumours.

 

4minute Hyuna Plastic Surgery Transformation

Let’s start with the member at the centre of controversy: Kim Hyuna, better known to fans as Hyuna.

4minute Hyuna plastic surgery kpop

The singer is the main rapper of the group and part of the musical duo Trouble Maker. Hyuna first rose to fame as the lead rapper of the Korean girl group Wonder Girls, before she left in 2007 due to health issues.

The issue that’s most on our mind with Hyuna is whether or not she went under the knife.

Hyuna Kim 4minute plastic surgery eyes

As we can see from the pictures above, it seems like Hyuna has had a little 4Minute plastic surgery done. She’s a chubby youngster in the before picture but chubby or not, we notice her eyes are the typical Korean eyes.

She is devoid of double eyelids and our inference based on the after picture, where her double eyelids suddenly appear tells us she’s had blepharoplasty.

We also notice she has “eye smiles” under her eyes, commonly known in Korea as aeygo sal. This tells us Hyuna has probably done fat grafting, where fat is taken from the thigh or abdomen and injected beneath the eyes to create that extra band of fat.

This look is popular in Korea as it gives the person a “cute” look and makes them look younger.

Did it work on Hyuna? We wouldn’t say she’s cute but it definitely makes her look younger than her 23 years.

4minute hyuna nose job rhinoplasty

Eye surgery aside, Hyuna’s’ other 4Minute plastic surgery procedures include a nose job. The poor kid had the fleshiest of nose tips as a child and we can clearly see why she had to alter it.

The first picture shows her with her bulky nose, where there’s hardly any bridge and very wide alars.

In the second picture, we see her vastly improved nose become taller, slimmer and more pointy at the tip.

Her alars have also been greatly reduced. This new nose is very beautiful and the only other thing competing for attention would be her wide mesmerizing eyes!

We hope all this 4Minute plastic surgery helps her win a get out of jail card in this scandal! (P.S Here’s our previous article on Hyuna)

 

4 minute Nam Ji-hyun Plastic Surgery Transformation

Our next 4minute member is scandal free and squeaky clean. In fact, she’s currently a Dance major in contemporary ballet at Sangmyung University.

4minute Nam Ji-hyun plastic surgery

Who else could it be but Nam Ji-hyun, nickname Ji-hyun. Yet as scandal free as she is, Ji-hyun also faces accusations of 4Minute plastic surgery.

Let’s see if we can debunk those rumours.

Nam Ji-hyun 4minute plastic surgery eyes

Judging by the pictures above, we’re going to have a hard time convincing you Ji-hyun has not had 4Minute plastic surgery.

Her eyes are so blatantly small and narrow in the first picture where she squints at the camera.

The second picture, we see her with bigger, more wide open eyes.

Maybe it’s makeup. Maybe it’s plastic surgery. We reckon Ji-hyun has had magic epicanthoplasty to open up the corners of her eyes. They were certainly not that big before this.

We doubt she’s had double eyelid surgery, but we think she might have done ptosis surgery to pull up the muscles of her previously droopy eyelids that only made her look sleepy and hence contributed to her small eyes.

4minute ji-hyun nose procedure

While we can all agree Ji-hyun has a very beautiful petite nose, it wasn’t too long ago that she was photographed with something other than the one sitting on her face.

Yes, our squeaky clean Ji-hyun has gotten rhinoplasty.

We can clearly see she had a big ugly nose before and now she has a tall, very narrow nose. The tip has been raised to make it look less flat and there’s major silicon upholding that nose of hers.

You know what they say, no pain no gain! This 4Minute plastic surgery has been a boon to Ji-hyun.

 

4minute Heo Ga-yoon aka Gayoon Plastic Surgry Transformation

Our next 4minute plastic surgery member is theatre major Heo Ga-yoon, better known as Gayoon to fans.

4minute gayoon plastic surgery

We salute Gayoon for being able to juggle a full time career as a K-pop superstar with being a regular uni student. On top of that, Gayoon has seemingly managed to find time to undergo 4Minute plastic surgery as well!

Read on to find out the procedures that she had.

gayoon 4 minute plastic surgery

Now we know our faces change as they grow, but we do know that they do not morph drastically and lose a lot of bone mass.

Take a good look at the pictures above and tell us what you see. If you see obvious signs of jaw augmentation, more specifically V line surgery then you’re spot on!

Gayoon did have quite a pointy chin when young but her mandible was rather big, thus making her have an inverted triangle face. The V line surgery helped shave off most of the mandible bone and contribute to the beautiful slim jawline she has today.

We’d like to know the surgeon who performed this incredible 4Minute plastic surgery on Gayoon because we definitely like the results!

What other 4Minute plastic surgery do you think Gayoon has had? Have a look at the pictures below.

4minute gayoon double eyelid surgery

Gayoon has obviously had blepharoplasty to give her double eyelids that she so sorely lacks in her high school photo.

Her eyes are now much wider and bigger after the surgery and do not appear to droop over her eyes as they previously did in the before picture.

The bigger eyes have vastly improved her overall look and we think it’s a giant leap from where she started with the small narrow eyes.

Of course, no 4Minute plastic surgery makeover would be complete without mention of a nose job. And of course, Gayoon is clearly guilty of this.

She has a short, fleshy nose in the first picture whereas the second picture shows her with a very well defined tip and super high nose bridge.

While the width of her alars remain the same, we can see the tip of her nose has been significantly raised to give her a sharper look. Gayoon’s nose certainly looks better now and we have the marvels of rhinoplasty to thank for it.

 

4minute Jeon Ji-Yoon Plastic Surgery Transformation

Multi-talented singer, rapper, dancer and songwriter Jeon Ji Yoon is the fourth member of 4Minute.

Jeon Ji Yoon 4minute plastic surgery korea

Ji-yoon like her fellow group mates is a uni student and like her fellow group mates, we have reason to believe she has gotten 4Minute plastic surgery.

4minute Jeon Ji Yoon plastic surgery procedures korea kpop

Ji-yoon may be a wide eyed beauty now but not too long ago, she was a victim of the Asian monolid. Her eyes, as shown in the first picture are really small and lack that extra eyelid crease.

Fast forward to a few years later and boom! She’s managed to get symmetrical, wide eyes. We personally think Ji-yoon might have gotten all the 4minute plastic surgery possible but from the pictures above, we see she has gotten double eyelid surgery as well as increased the horizontal length of her eyes, the latter of which was achieved through lateral and epi canthoplasty.

Jeon Ji-Yoon 4minute double eyelid surgery

Being Korean immediately puts one under suspicion of a nose job, but in this case, we believe the suspicion is rightly confirmed.

Just have a look at the before and after photos if you don’t believe it. While Jiyoon has maintained the length of her nose, the bridge of it has definitely increased by leaps and bounds no doubt because of a silicone implant in her nose.

The tip used to be a triangular bulb but now it has become M shaped, thanks to a little tiplasty.

Overall, this 4Minute plastic surgery has made Jiyoon go from a 2 to a solid 9.

 

4minute Kwon So-hyun Plastic Surgery Transformation

Our final 4Minute plastic surgery member is none other than baby of the group Kwon So-hyun.

4minute Kwon So-hyun plastic surgery

So-hyun was already a bona fide child star when she debuted with the group Orange when she was just 12 years old. Since then her star has been on the rise and we’ve seen her get bigger with 4Minute.

Having been in the limelight since young, we’ve been able to track So-hyuns gradual facial changes through the media.

For instance:

Kwon So-Hyun 4minute plastic surgery nose eyes jaw chin

Sohyun’s nose has definitely changed shape over the years. Especially the tip.

While she did not have sufficient nasal height, she did have a rather slim nose bridge. The only thing we can say she has done is gotten a silicone implant to increase nose height.

Further to that, she might have had her alars trimmed and the nasal tip raised.

4minute kwon so-hyun double eyelid surgery

A lot of people are still in debate over whether or not Sohyun did her eyes and to be honest, it is a tough one.

The star shared a recent throwback that featured a baby picture of her and her current self, and to be honest, she’s always had large and cute eyes since she was a kid.

It also doesn’t appear as if she’d had double eyelid surgery, as aside from the heavy eyeliner, they appear just as in her childhood photo.

What say you? Did Sohyun do her eyes? We think she’s in the clear for now, but perhaps she might change her mind and get 4Minute plastic surgery in the future.

 

Let’s take a look at the gradual transformation of 4minute

The girls as a group have evolved differently over time. Let’s go through their transformation picture by picture.

We hope the band churn out more wonderful music for years to come.

Woman in her 20s look 50 after botched plastic surgery where an unlicensed clinic injected banned substance into her face

Her troubles started when she was 17 and her boss told her that her face was, “too thin and will not bring you luck”.

Xiaolian from Gansu Province in China also described her own face as too thin and cute, thus her desire to improve her own appearance.

She went around to numerous plastic surgery clinics but being a low wage worker, the prices the clinics charged was out of reach for her.

Eventually she settled on an unlicensed clinic that her friend recommended to her.

This was to be a mistake she would regret.

Xiaolian from China botched plastic surgery after visiting unlicensed clinic

Xiaolian had undergone more than 10 injections across multiple visits to the clinic to make her face more plump.

She finally achieved the look she wanted and thought life was going to be blissful moving forward.

Which was not to be.

In 2009, she noticed her face began to swell and changed shape.

By 2013, her face became completely disfigured with her face becoming severely swollen, eye dropping and hair falling off, with her face looking like a woman in her 50s (Do remember that she is only in her late 20s).

Xiaolian disfigured after being injected with banned substance

After testing what went wrong doctors found out that she had been injected with a banned substance called hydrophilic polyacrylamide gel (PAAG).

PAAG had been used in the past for breast augmentation but is currently banned for use in plastic surgery.

Xiaolian is now having corrective surgery at a reputable plastic surgery clinic in Guangzhou, but doctors have warned that the effects of the botched surgery may be difficult to reverse as the banned substance had been in her for too long.

Xiaolian’s doctors have also warned that even for a relatively minor procedure, it is of paramount importance to choose a reputable, trustworthy and licensed clinic/doctor.

Amaris B Clinic: The Liposuction, Gynecomastia and Fat Grafting Clinic Since 2005

Having set up Amaris B. Clinic 13 years ago, aesthetic medicine was still relatively unknown and not as well received as today.

Despite the underwhelming response towards aesthetic medicine back then, Dr. Ivan Puah, however, had a vision.

Continuous Training & Skills Improvement

For him, his practice was a manifestation of his agenda: to make safe and medically-proven treatment for facial and body enhancement accessible to everyone.

Yet, the road to his successful practice today was not always a breeze.

Faced with a lack of locally available training then that could help hone his skills, he frequently travelled around the world to be trained by the very best.

Spending hundreds of hours yearly on training, he has garnered not only the most invaluable set of skills in aesthetic medicine, but the training has helped refine his mastery in this field.

Being one of the pioneers in Vaser Liposuction, he was amongst the first groups of doctors to offer VASER Liposuction in Singapore in 2005.

Dr Ivan Puah, The Fat Reduction And Body Sculpting Doctor

Amidst the multitude of aesthetic treatments that Dr. Puah is proficient in, the area of the face and body sculpting captures his interest the most.

To the doctor, not only is body sculpting a form of body art, the fascination and beauty of body sculpting lie in its capacity to enhance specific areas of the human anatomy to achieve one’s most desired figure.

With the vision of catering to the needs of a wide range of patients who are keen on sculpting their body to perfection, Dr Puah and his team at Amaris B Clinic is one of the few clinics that offer a comprehensive range of treatment for fat reduction and body sculpting.

Understanding The Male & Female Anatomy – Gynecomastia, Liposuction & Fat Grafting

Thoroughly understanding the works of the human anatomy, Dr. Ivan Puah comprehends the struggle of stubborn bulges on his patient’s body.

And when exercise does not make the cut in reshaping one’s body to that of the ideal, his mastery in body sculpting via liposuction plays that significant role in helping both genders achieve the bodies they never thought could possibly exist.

Successfully helping numerous male patients with their gynecomastia condition aka “male boobs”, he is responsible for the restoration of confidence in many of his patients.

But it is not only the male gender that has enjoyed the benefits of his skills in aesthetics medicine.

Females who struggle with stubborn fat on their abdomen, love hands and thighs or a loss of fat from intended areas such as their breasts and buttock have had a desirable outcome to their body contour under the nimble-fingered Dr Puah from Amaris B Clinic, allowing them to exude every ounce of femininity within them.

Appointed Trainer At Allergan @ Botox & Fillers

More than an accomplished aesthetics doctor in Vaser Liposuction, Dr. Ivan Puah is competent in Botulinum toxins (i.e. Botox) and fillers.

Appointed as a trainer to new doctors who wish to learn about botox and fillers, he conducts regular training to train and share his experience with fellow doctors with the latest development in this field.

Botox and fillers can do much wonder for patients who are afflicted with facial wrinkles, undesirable facial shapes and sagginess in the facial department.

With botox to reduce the disagreeable facial wrinkles, the combination with fillers for a facial lifting, nose and chin enhancement, reduction in folds and even a reduction in dark eye circles revamp the facial contours, instantly injecting rejuvenation and youth in the patients’ countenance.

With treatments lasting a mere 10 minutes and with minimal to no downtime, Dr. Ivan Puah’s patients find a drastic improvement to a wide range of skin and facial aesthetic issues.

Patients’ Satisfaction Is The Best Reward

It is one cosmetic enhancement surgery that made the most lasting of impressions and one that reminds him the reason behind his passion for aesthetic medicine.

Plagued by gynecomastia (male boobs), Dr. Ivan Puah vividly remembers just how painfully shy this male patient of his was.

His self-confidence was at an all time low and hid behind baggy clothes in hopes to conceal all traces of self-consciousness.

Desperate and exasperated, the patient sought his help, and after performing a gynecomastia surgery on him, the patient was transformed both inside out.

Deeply etched in his mind, Dr Puah would never forget that widest smile and that completely different façade when his patient came back to his clinic to personally thank him with a cake in his hands.

But what was most memorable was that, this withdrawn patient who first walked through doors of Amaris B Clinic, was able to walk out with not only his head held high, but became one of the competitors in a bodybuilding competition.

Amaris B. Clinic: The Liposuction, Gynecomastia and Fat Grafting Clinic Since 2005

For Dr. Ivan Puah of Amaris B Clinic, being an aesthetic doctor is more than just a career.

To him, he fancies the art behind body sculpting.

Viewing every patient as a canvass for him to create his masterpiece, it is the intrigue behind the artistic side of science that motivates him each day to becoming a better aesthetic doctor than the day before.

Could this be the future of plastic surgery? Using brain waves to determine how people would want to look like

$

With advances in technology as well as plastic surgery and aesthetics techniques, changing how you look is hardly an issue anymore. Rather, which new identity would you like to take on, is now the million dollar question.

They say that beauty lies in the eye of the beholder. While you may think that a higher nose bridge will improve your overall facade, others might beg to differ. Regardless of what others may think, ultimately, it’s your face and body, and if you’re satisfied with your appearance, others’ opinion should be the least of your concern.

In light of this, photographer Scott Chasserot set out to find out how people innately, would like to look given an ideal situation. His project Original Idea explores this thought in which it combines portrait photography with neuroscience to isolate the subject’s ideal self image.

In simple terms, Scott got subjects to post for a simple headshot. He then used editing software to manipulate and changed their facial features, afterwhich he presented the altered versions to the subjects while attaching them to a brain scanner to determine which version they prefer.

Perhaps this could be the future of plastic surgery. Before surgery, a patient would be presented different versions of themselves and their own subconscious will determine how they would want to look. The plastic surgeon would then go according to this analysis to operate on the patient.

Here is the result of Scott’s project:

future of plastic surgery - using brain waves (1)

For this woman, you can see the clear difference in facial shape. She wants a more V-shaped face, in addition to the change in the shape of her eyes which would require blepharoplasty and epicanthoplasty. In addition, she would also require rhinoplasty to achieve a more streamlined nose. Her lips would also require lip augmentation.

future of plastic surgery - using brain waves (2)

The distinct difference here is the eyes. The eyes are very much bigger giving him a less Asian look. His eyebrows are also “straighter” as compared to the curved brows before. Hips lips are also slightly longer and flatter.

future of plastic surgery - using brain waves (3)

The  first observable difference is the eyebrows. It has a high arch which gives her face more definition. Her nose is also sharper and not as bulbous as before.

future of plastic surgery - using brain waves (4)

The shape of his eyes has changed from being droopy to having a more “alert” look. The eyes really does make all the difference in one’s appearance.

future of plastic surgery - using brain waves (5)

In reality, he had a higher nose tip. He has opted for a longer nose tip in order to give his face more balance. Also, the shape of his lips is slightly altered to have a more curvy definition. His eye brows now also have a curved end to bring the attention to his eyes.

future of plastic surgery - using brain waves (6)

There are many distinct differences for this woman. There are major changes to the eyebrows, the shape of the eyes, the nose and also the shape of the lips. The nose is not as bulbous as before, and the lips is now wider and fuller giving the face a more complete look. Her eyebrows in reality makes her look slightly fierce, but with a slight tweak, she actually looks much more approachable.

future of plastic surgery - using brain waves (7)

Firstly, his eyes in his subconscious look bigger and not as dull. The chunkier nose tip, once reduced would make him sharper looking. Also, adding on some jaw muscle removes the V shape face, giving him a more chiseled masculine face. His lips are also much fuller making him more desirable.

future of plastic surgery - using brain waves (8)

It is amazing how a small change to the nose now can make such a huge difference to one’s face. The green eyes also give her overall facade a pop of color, and a smaller face shape with well sculpted lips makes her more feminine than in reality.

future of plastic surgery - using brain waves (9)

The lady prefers a sharper V-shaped face, and also bigger eyes. Her nose has become slightly smaller and her lips also became fuller. For us the most obvious change is the shape of the face to look more feminine, and also the bigger eyes which makes her more desirable.

future of plastic surgery - using brain waves (10)

The face here is also sharper giving it a more distinct V-shape. The position of the eyebrow has also changed to be a more parallel type of eyebrow. Her nose is also sharper bring the attention back to the middle of the face. There’s also a slight change in the shape of the lips.

future of plastic surgery - using brain waves (12)

The nose is the most observable difference in this before after picture. It is now sharper and not as bulbous. Her lips have also changed to become wider, and her eyes have also changed to become more a cat-like shape.

future of plastic surgery - using brain waves (13)

This image is testament to the saying where the eyes make the person. From a once tired looking face, the changed eyes now make the face much brighter.

 

While you may shy away from the truth of how you really want to look, there’s no hiding from your own subconsciousness – your own brain waves. This could very possibly be the litmus test of the procedures that one should go through in order to achieve their ideal look, in the near future.

A rose by any other name would still smell as sweet and we think this expression couldn’t be more apt for our next PlastyTalk celebrity.

The gorgeous Jun Ji Hyun, born Wang Ji Hyun but better known as Gianna Jun is a popular South Korean actress. She is famed for her role as “The Girl” in the romantic comedy My Sassy Girl, one of the highest grossing Korean comedies of all time.

Her other notable films include Il Mare (2000), Windstruck (2004), The Thieves (2012), and The Berlin File (2013), as well as the television series My Love from the Star.

Jun Ji Hyun plastic surgery before after (1)

Given her talents as an actress, it’s hard to imagine Jun Ji Hyun doing anything else, yet this 33 year olds original ambition was to be a flight attendant.

Fate obviously had other plans because at the tender age of 16, Jun Ji Hyun aka Wang Ji Hyun, aka Gianna Jun was discovered on the street by a fashion editor.

Thus began her modelling career, where she landed her first gig as a model for Ecole Magazine in 1997. It wasn’t until she was featured in a commercial for Samsung My Jet Printer that she became an overnight sensation. The dance moves and sassy attitude in the ad made her into an icon for teens and young adults in Korea.

We’re mighty glad Jun Ji Hyun’s gorgeous mug is on our TV screens and not up in the skies, but is that pretty face of hers a 100% original, or, is she spotting fake features?

This edition of PlastyTalk will focus on the Jun Ji Hyun plastic surgery procedures. We’ve got the inside scoop on that so read on!

 

Guess the Jun Ji Hyun Plastic Surgery Transformation?

We’ve got this to say:  if you’re a celebrity and planning to get plastic surgery, then please, please, please make an effort to hide all previous photos of your less desirable self.

Unless you plan to be brave and admit upfront you’ve got work done. I mean, why would you leave damning evidence like this for all to see and compare?

Look at the before and after Jun Ji Hyun plastic surgery pictures. It doesn’t get more obvious than that. The lady has obviously had her eyes fixed.

Jun Ji Hyun plastic surgery before after (2) eyes

In the first picture, her eyes are asymmetrical and very narrow. There’s no double eyelid going on. It looks like she’s half asleep, bored and uninterested in taking the picture.

The second picture is a whole different story! We see her with much bigger eyes, and lo behold, what is that? Double eyelids? You’d be forgiven for thinking every Korean female seems to grow a magical pair of extra eyelids once they hit puberty, given their vehement denials against plastic surgery.

“Me? Plastic surgery? Why these are all natural” BUT OF COURSE. If you insist. A picture paints a thousand words and this one has Jun Ji Hyun plastic surgery written all over it.

 

Guess the Jun Ji Hyun Plastic Surgery Transformation?

You don’t need to play Sherlock Holmes to spot the next Jun Ji Hyun plastic surgery. In fact, it is plain obvious and staring you right in the face. Here’s a clue: it starts with an N and ends with an E and if you still haven’t figured it out then have a peep at the photo below.

Jun Ji Hyun plastic surgery before after (3) nose

OK, so it’s her nose.

From short and bulbous to long and shapely. You’d think we were describing the metamorphosis of a butterfly. In a way, it’s kind of true. The metamorphosis would be plastic surgery and the butterfly would be Jun Ji Hyun’s nose – rhinoplasty.

She’s definitely got a better nasal tip now and her nose bridge is more prominent than it was during her younger days.

Your bones may grow but your nasal cartilage most definitely does not! At least not vertically. This Jun Ji Hyun plastic surgery has got the thumbs up from us!

 

Guess the Jun Ji Hyun Plastic Surgery Transformation?

Moving on to the next Jun Ji Hyun plastic surgery, we’ve got something a lot of you might not spot at first.

Do you think you can guess what it is? You might be thinking V line surgery but it’s not!

OK, so we’ll cut down the suspense and just tell you what it is. But to be fair, here’s a picture of her first.

Jun Ji Hyun plastic surgery before after (4)

This Jun Ji Hyun plastic surgery is called zygoma reduction, better known as cheekbone reduction or cheekbone augmentation.

This surgery basically shaves down the very prominent zygoma bones (the ones sitting on the side of your cheeks that give most East Asians, especially Koreans, a very large and square looking face) so that the upper half of your face becomes slimmer and more in sync with the lower half so you don’t look like a horribly misshaped inverted triangle.

We’ve got to say Jun Ji Hyun’s face isn’t too bad in the before picture, but you can definitely see the very large upper part of her face sticking out.

As you can see, in the before picture she’s got a lot of space between the corners of her eyes to her ears, whereas in the after picture, the space is greatly reduced, so it looks more symmetrical and in sync with the rest of the features on her face.

This Jun Ji Hyun plastic surgery softens the edge of her face and gives her a gentler look.

On a scale of 1 to deadly, zygoma reduction surgery sits at 8 so we’re glad this Jun Ji Hyun plastic surgery had stunning results.

 

Let’s take a look at the Jun Ji Hyun plastic surgery transformation.

5 Physical Traits That Will Help You Score Any Date

$
0
0

In the increasingly demanding world of today, finding our Mr and Mrs Right is hard. While it’s true that compatibility –  interest, characteristics, blood type, social standing – plays quite a dominant role in determining the possibility of that second date, there is one factor that surpasses them all – Physical Appearance.

As superficial as it may sound, it holds true.

First impression does matter.

So just what are some of the physical traits that you could enhance to boost your confidence for that date? Let’s find out more!

Cherubic Face

No one likes a gaunt facial contour. Hollow cheeks and temples suck out any trace of youth within us.

With fat grafting and fillers, this can easily be remedied, giving you that healthy and youthful facial revolumisation.

Bright and Lively Eyes

During a date, most of the attention will be focused on the eyes and your smile – your smize (smiling with the eyes)!

A pair of sunken and tired eyes not only adds to your age but makes you look perpetually disengaged.

Giving your eyes a lift by filling them out with either fillers or fat makes a world of a difference.

Shapely contour

A date or an interview, looking clean and sharp always adds brownie points.

A shapely body sends a message that you take good care of yourself and your health.

A flabby tummy or batwing arms, on the other hand, may give the inadvertent impression of sloppiness and unfortunately, it reflects the message of an unhealthy lifestyle.

While flabby tummies, bat wing arms and even chunky thighs may be a cause for concern, there’s no fat pocket a hassle-free liposuction cannot help to address.

Masculine Chest for the Men

Dressing to impress and looking your best isn’t just the ladies’ responsibility.

Men, you’ve got a part to play, and it’s quite a big one.

Women love a pair of broad shoulders and a taut, muscular chest, as it indicates that the man can protect his lady.

For some men, neither going to the gym nor adhering to a healthy diet guarantees a well-sculpted chest, due to a condition called gynecomastia (man boobs).

Gynecomastia surgery can get rid of that medical condition.

Exude Feminine Confidence

Ladies, it’s all about the way we carry ourselves, but being self-conscious might actually be your worst nemesis.

For those who may not necessarily be the most secure about our bodies, there are ways around this little hurdle of ours.

Sculpting your body with a combination of liposuction and fat grafting can give you that ultimate boost of self-esteem.

Amaris B. Clinic: The Solution To Your Dream Body

Amaris B Clinic, helmed by Dr Ivan Puah since 2005, is dedicated to help men and women achieve their desired body, giving them the confidence they never knew they had.

The clinic’s signature body sculpting treatments are liposuction, fat grafting and gynecomastia surgery.

Vaser Liposuction (VASER Lipo)

Vaser Liposuction (VASER Lipo) is the modern liposuction treatment of today.

It is a targeted fat reduction treatment that is usually done on the common problem areas such as the abdomen, hips, thighs, arms, neck, and chin.

VASER Lipo is a minimally invasive fat reduction and body contouring procedure that can sculpt the hourglass that you’ve always wanted or even just to get rid of stubborn small pockets such as the knees and chin.

How Does Vaser Liposuction Work?

This preferred method of liposuction uses ultrasonic energy to emulsify the fats from the targeted body parts.

The melted fats will then be aspirated through a small cannula, inserted via a small incision made. The tiny incision will be stitched up, and heavy dressings will be applied.

Patients would need to have their compression garment on for the next few weeks to speed up the healing process.

ADR-C Breast Enhancement

A majority of women find themselves increasingly discontented with either the shape or the size of their breasts.

ADR-C Breast Enhancement aims to dissolve women’s dissatisfaction with their breasts, allowing them to bring out a set of confidence they can call their own.

How Does Breast Enhancement With ADR-C Work?

Harvesting and injection are the two significant steps in the ADR-C Breast enhancement treatment process.

During the procedure, excess fat from other parts of the body is first extracted via liposuction.

After which, fat tissue will then be subjected to carefully purify and harvest to preserve the quality of the fat cells into the breast area. This is called fat grafting.

ADR-C Breast enhancement is vastly different from the traditional breast implant surgery method.

It does not only reflect more natural results, but this method is free from the risk of ruptures, leaks or even potential shifts due to the placement of the implants.

Efficiency aside, ADR-C breast enhancement also requires significantly shorter recovery time as compared to the breast implant surgery method.

Gynecomastia or Man Boobs

Gynecomastia or man boobs are the worst, to say the least. While some men are plagued by this condition due to hormonal imbalance, others are affected by gynecomastia due to a medical condition.

Regardless of the causes of gynecomastia, many men who suffer from this condition find their self-esteem plunge to an all-time low.

Afflicted by this condition, many men find themselves dejected and some even regard themselves as less than a man.

Male Breast Reduction @ Gynecomastia Surgery

A Gynecomastia surgery helps to reduce excess fat and overly enlarged glandular tissues.

With the overly enlarged glandular tissues removed during the surgery, the once flabby chest will not only be flatter but also firmer, giving you that more define and masculine appearance in the chest area.

Speak to Dr. Ivan Puah for your dream body and newfound confidence today.

A Zhejiang woman is suing a hospital for S$55,000 following a botched boob job that was apparently performed by a physician specializing in oral surgery.

At the end of last year, the woman, Li Ying, who has been divorced for a few years, went under the knife to get her breasts enlarged at a plastic surgery hospital in Jiaxing city, Zhejiang province.

She hopes that this will result in a more beautiful and confident her and will present her with opportunities to remarry.

However following the operation, liquid and puss started seeping out of her breasts and her nipples began to look as if they were decaying.

She sent a photo on WeChat of her breast to the surgeon who performed the operation, who assured that it was really nothing to worry about and all very normal, asking her to drop by the hospital the next day if she liked.

In case you need a closer look.

Fortunately for her, Li Ying went to a Shanghai hospital for a second opinion where doctors quickly determined that she was suffering from serious complications from her breast augmentation surgery, diagnosing her with “necrosis of the breast.”

They subsequently removed the breast implants, and discovered that her breasts had become deformed and her nerves non-responsive.

Li Ying is now taking the hospital to court over the botched boob job, forcing them to release the qualifications of the physicians who participated in the operation, revealing that the leading surgeon who advised Li not to worry was actually an oral surgeon who may not even have a license to practice plastic surgery.

Morale of the story? Always go to a licensed Plastic Surgeon who is qualified to carry out plastic surgery procedures.

You wouldn’t want to end up like this woman just to save a few bucks.

For many of us, the late 20’s bring about a world of unwelcome surprises.

From the bizarre decrease in metabolic rate to the unsightly cellulite overstaying their welcome, nothing beats the agony of spotting the physical evidence of ageing on our faces and the toll that ageing has on our once divine body.

However, before you allow ageing to take the reigns and resign to its notoriety, there ARE ways for us to strike back at ageing (with a vengeance) which would make us look and feel 21 again.

1. Defy Gravity And Lift Saggy Skin With Ultherapy

From the effects of gravity at play, the immersion of environmental pollutants on a daily basis, to loss of volume and fat as age creeps up on us, our face is one of the main features that is taking quite the major hit when ageing strikes.

With jowls being one of the most common and surest signs of ageing, it is the droopiness of the lower cheek that does nothing but piles on unwanted age onto us.

Thankfully, a simple and quick procedure, Ultherapy aka V-lift face tightening is here to prevent our face from going deep South.

As the name suggests, V-lift face tightening does exactly as it says.

Lifting, tightening and that feminine V-shape contour, Ultherapy sculpts our ageing face into perfection and keeps the secret of our age tightly concealed.

Ultherapy: FDA-approved Non-invasive Skin Lift

Ultherapy is an FDA-approved High intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) technology, and it is competent in lifting and tightening loose and saggy skin by stimulating the body’s natural collagen production.

Ultherapy is one of the most modern technologies, if not, the most modern in the delivering of focused ultrasound energy to the skin’s foundational layer.

Ultherapy allows the revival of collagen production, which is responsible for youthful and bouncier looking skin but does not involve any cutting or disruption on the surface of the skin, giving the skin a perkier and more vivacious appearance after the treatment.

Ultherapy can also be used on the neck, under the chin and on the eyebrow to address different problem areas that are normally associated with ageing.

2. Body Sculpting Fat Reduction With VASER Lipo

So ladies (who are in our late 20’s), let’s face it.

Like the wind, our heydey has come and gone, and to our dismay, our bodies do not quite seem to feel and look like how they did back in our prime.

With our metabolism acting up and our flaps taking a life of their own, our bodies have become one that isn’t quite as desirable as before.

With a sedentary lifestyle prevailing in our day to day, our taut bodies have gone into hiding and stubborn fat have come out to play.

A simple and minimally invasive procedure of liposuction whips our fats into shape, smoothing out the uneven bumps caused by cellulite, but most importantly, you are going to have that confidence of the 21-year-old you, where baring your midriff was a decision that didn’t take much courage or coercion.

VASER Lipo: Minimally-invasive Liposuction

The latest liposuction technique in town, VASER Lipo specifically targets fat from unwanted body parts such as the tummy area, back, double chin and knees.

It is a gentle procedure that will leave important tissues undisturbed while combatting the fat successfully.

A small cannula will be inserted into your trouble zone, emitting ultrasonic waves that will break down, liquefy and suck the fat cells away.

VASER Hi-Def Lipo: Defining The Muscles For An Athletic Build

As age catches up, our body slows down and no matter how much lean meat you eat and how many hours you put in the gym, your muscles are still not showing.

VASER Hi-def is a 3-dimensional body sculpting treatment that is able to bring out the muscles that are buried beneath the stubborn fat layer.

VASER Hi-Def Lipo works a similar way as VASER Lipo except that with VASER Hi-Def Lipo, this treatment removes fat around the muscle groups and chiselling the muscle structure, revealing rock solid muscle definition.

Perfect for those who are generally for with good muscle tone.

3. Breast Enhancement Via Fat Grafting

With gravity acting upon our bosoms for the past 20 odd years and of course, that pesky loss of volume as we enter our ageing years, our breasts have definitely flopped and lost just as much of its appeal.

Gravity and ageing aside, let’s be honest, the whole “home is where the bra isn’t” mentality that has now taken permanent residence in our outlook on bras is one of the major causes of our oddly shaped and saggy bosoms.

But unlike the traditional invasive breast implants, the state-of-the-art breast enhancement technology allows you to go home with a new and perky set of breasts without the pain and risk of surgery.

Talk about the best of both worlds…

ADR-C Breast Enhancement With Fat Grafting

For many, our breasts are an emblem of femininity. While some of us are afflicted by uneven sized breasts, others suffer from saggy and smaller bosoms.

Regardless of our bosomy woes, ADR-C Breast Enhancement with fat grafting is able to address our afflictions.

ADR-C Breast Enhancement presents the best of both worlds in that unwanted fat will first be extracted from our thighs, tummy and even arms and after subjecting the fats to harvesting where the fats are purified, the purified fats will then be injected into the breasts to create the size and volume that you desire.

ADR-C Breast Enhancement also targets the sagginess of breasts, giving the breasts the lift, restoring them to their former glory.

4. Facial Revolutionization With Filler

As mentioned before, one of the most painful effects of ageing is the significant loss of volume in many parts of our body, with our face being one of the most prominent areas.

Hollow cheeks, sunken eyes, prominent smile lines and a sunken temple, what sounds very much like the perfect Halloween costume is indeed the result of ageing on our facial contours.

It goes without saying that the loss of fat and volume in our face screams ‘you are getting old’ like no other, but much can be done to delicately and masterfully mask that dreadful process of ageing.

The loss of a full and cherubic face can easily be salvaged by the use of fillers that can mimic and give you the plump and baby-like facial contours you had when you back in your early 20’s.

What’s more, the component used in fillers is basically Hyaluronic Acid, which is already found in our bodies, to begin with. Win-win!

5. Smoothen Deep Or Fine Wrinkles With Botox

They say each crease on an individual’s face tells a unique story and that wrinkles indicate a learned and wise person.

But what they forgot to tell us is that ‘you are getting old!’ when wrinkles make their unwanted appearance.

It’s one thing to look wise and learned, it’s another to glaringly announce your age with the wrinkles that have by now, formed a roadmap on your forehead. Wrinkles are maddening, to say the very least.

The displeasing folds and creases that threaten the smoothness of our face is a tough pill to swallow when we are struck by ageing.

Like the other ageing woes, there is a solution to this problem.

Botox!

The simple and quick procedure that can be done during our lunch-break, instantly smooth out the hideous signs of ageing with botox.

Like we say, a crease-free face is a younger and sprightlier face! So that means, you are well on your way to looking like you were when you were 21!
