Leading doctors discuss trends and safety aspects of aesthetic treatments in Korea & Singapore.
One of Korea's leading maxillofacial surgeons, Dr Moon Hyoung Jin, has transformed the faces of thousands of Koreans, including celebrities.
While waiting for the seminar to get started, we are served with buffet dinner & also hot beverages to fight the bitter cold rainy weather. I invited Jo to join me in the talk since we love to know as much as possible regarding beauty...
Dr. Low, medical director of The Sloane Clinic gave me a brief insight in how Restylane can help improve my face (if I really want to) since she diagnose that I don't have much to change at this point of time. From what she shared, I believe she don't ask patients to do extra jabs on their faces, unless really nessccesary.
I have no idea what fillers are besides commonly used drugs like Botox.We were introduced to Restylane at the start of the presentation. It's a biodegrable chemical and somewhat help our skin to generate more collegen when inserted into our skin.
Liquid Restylane become jelly like susbtance when it's stable after injecting our skin,thus giving the lift on saggy skins.
Dr. Moon gave us a idea how is cosmestic surgery like in Korean. It is true that there are surplus of comestic clinics in Korea. It's very normal & common for Koreans to enhance their faces/ bodies.
He has a sense of humour when he did the presentation. It's not easy to attract open & interactive session of Singaporean &
I thought he did a great job in getting us warm up to a still "taboo" topic here.
I like his style because I think he makes his patients very comfortable with him.
Dr Low, on the other hand is a charismatic speaker & very confident in her speech. After listening to her 10min speech, I actually thought I seriously needed a consulatation with her.
Not many has the golden ration proportions.Neither can we get away easily with aging with the polluted environment nor avoid eating unhealthy processed foods.
We will somehow have to get medical/ cosmetic help along the way...
We were split into groups to observe how Restylane are injected into real woman.I saw the demostration done by Dr. Low.
An outlook of the clinic...
What the procedure needs...
I almost fainted at the sight of long needles. They looked really scary & painful! I don't think they hurt cos' the patient didn't even move or finch.
She was very calm & looked like she's sleeping/ enjoying the whole session!
After the injections,

After the injections, Dr. Low massaged her face to help ease the pain & also create more blood circulation I think.
She bid goodbye to her wrinkles & welcome new high & fuller cheekbones.
I took a photo with Dr. Moon cos' I think he's very good looking. 
Many people accused me of having a fake nose. So, I went up to Dr. Moon infront of everyone who was at the senimar to ask him if he thinks my nose my fake. He immediately said NO, mine is real for sure & it's very pretty & unusual for Asian. I asked him how can we differentiate a real & nose job. He drew a simple illustration of me & I would like to share with all of you. Please spare me the harassement of commenting I have fake nose. Honestly, if I wanted to go under the knife, I would have done a boob job instead. I like mine to be a full C cup. LOL! Anyways, back to the conversation with Dr. Moon, he was saying that he could tell mine is real cos' there is a hump on my nose when he check my side profile. A well defined fake nose will have a smooth line, instead of a hump. Imagine snow skiing, the kind of angle... I hope we are clear now, stop calling me a fake beauty! I do have a little secret to share. I uses Shu Uemura highlighter to dust the centre of my nose to make it look more defined & protruding for cameras...

Actually I have something to share...
Below is a token from Dr. Moon to clear some air.
My nose line is lines with circles.
Top 2 lines shows the steep (angle) people usually want compared to what I have.
Bottom 2 lines shows a real nose VS a fake nose...
