The other day, I was at my nephew's wedding, and ended up talking to a very nice lady who asked me what I did for a living.
I told her I was an aesthetic doctor and a aesthetic clinic owner...
Her attitude immediately changed.
“Oh, you do Botox injections?” She replied, shaking her head. “I’m not into that. I don’t want to change my face.”
It’s a concern I hear a lot, both from strangers and from patients who come in for skin treatments, but are wary of injectables.
So in case you feel the same way, I want to share with you what I told this lady.
The truth is, your face is changing the whole time.
After the age of 18, you lose 1% of the collagen in your skin every year. That’s the key protein that keeps your skin firm and taut - so you can imagine what happens to your skin when you’ve lost 15% or 20% of it...
Meanwhile, once you hit your 40s, the ligaments which support your skin start to loosen, and the fad pads which keep your skin nice and plump start to shrivel and move around.
Your skin will also get thinner.
Put all that together, and your skin will start to sag. You’ll also start to see lines and wrinkles that just weren’t there before.
Very gradually, your face will look noticeably older than it did in your 20s and 30s. That’s what aging looks like!
We use injectable treatments like anti-wrinkle injections (eg Botox) and fillers to stop your face from changing for as long as possible.
It’s about preserving your face...
...Making sure that when you look in the mirror, you still look like YOU - not some stranger who looks much older than you feel!
So it’s not about changing your face. Rather the opposite.
Why do people get the wrong end of the stick?
Because there are so many injectors out there who are working with minimal training (I mean, literally a day or two).
These under-qualified people treat clients’ faces without understanding facial anatomy, without much skill or experience, and end up over-injecting or injecting in all the wrong places.
Their clients end up looking unnatural.
And that’s why people like the very nice woman I was speaking to at my nephew's wedding believe that anti-wrinkle injections and fillers make you look different.
That does not happen at our clinics (Enhanze Clinic and Luminous @Pavilion KL), where I have over 20yeasr experience in injectables and are fully certified by training and by Ministry of Health. In face I ahve conducted these treatments so often over the years I can almost predict what can happen and how it will turn out.
We use a light touch and work to slow down change in your face - not create it!
We’ll look at your face and how it’s aging, and discuss what we can do to preserve your youthful looks for as long as possible.
Our mission is make our clients look good feel good , in the safest most comfortable manner with the best natural outcome.
