DR.SUTINA "Discovering Beauty with Science"

My Webinar on Women Urinary Incontinence. For those who are suffering from urinary incontinence and need to understand it better, the webinar tries to explain what it is, why it happens and how can it be treated. As aging occurs, women go through changes in their appearance. Most obviously is in the face. But aside from the face and facial features, our body goes through changes as well in it shape as well as function. From babyhood to girlhood to young lady then a woman and middle age and elderly lady, these changes is affected due to physical changes as well as hormonal changes.                                                                                                                  ...

Recently we had an old patient of mine, SL, a beautiful young model who has landed an acting job which required her to expose her arms and legs. So she wanted them sculpted to slimmer limbs but did not want to undergo any surgery. She wanted something effective and yet not invasive, with little downtime as she still had modeling shoots to go to, and does not require too many visits. I proposed to her Laserlipolisis using my favorite technology of all time - the Smartlipo Laserlipolisis. The Smartlipo laser is from Deka, a prominent laser company based in Florence, Italy. It uses the 1064nm wavelength which is sensitive to water and fat. By using this laser to melt the unwanted fat, turning it into oily discharge instead, making it easy to extract if desired through small incisions on the skin. This is the journey : The Patient SL is a young lady who is of normal weight with some areas of stubborn fat. She works as a model and actress and exposes these areas during work so...

I realised recently that our centre carries the top of range lasers and many clients do not know this. They sometimes compare prices and when they find ours to be somewhat more pricey then others , think that we are more expensive. This is not true. Our lasers are imported and are the gold standards for it's treatment range. Unfortunately though lasers have different wavelenghts to cater for different needs and any 1 laser system can only have 1 wavelenght. This makes it expensive for the client if they have multiple conditions that needs to be treated on their facial skin. For eg : acne scars with melasma and some wrinkles with facial hair. We thus decided to introduce these lasers to our members and came up with limited time "Unlimited" laser treatments with any lasers for any condition scheme. The following are the laser types that we have : 1. Duolite by DEKA : a Q-Switch Nd-Yag laser for skin lightening, hyperpigmentations, pore reduction, skin rejuvenation ...

The Isolaz is here and we had a round of demonnstration as well as training today for our drs as well as nurses. It was fun to try it out on Dr Angeline who has been having quite regular breakouts since she started her Masters course in Aesthetic Medicine and Ima our pharmacist who has been suffeing from pustular and cystic acne for many years. I've written about Isolaz before (under Photopneumatic Therapy) but today I see it's potentail use even better. Now we can treat active, inflammed, red, painful and cystic acne fast and without systemic intake of Isotretinoin and oral antibiotics. So what is Isolaz ? It is a machine that uses broadband light and vacuum to clear acne. It is a safe and comfortable procedure and this is important especially for those with red, painful, swollen acne lesions with or without pus. It works on ALL skin types so no matter what skin color you are, Isolaz can help. This is thus different for Chemical peeling and lasers which are more risky f...

Recently attended the 1st Gender Aesthetics Conference in Singapore. I attended as I was interested to hear views from colleagues as well as learn new things on treatments and procedures related to differences in gender (male and female) as well as directions in treating female sexual specific problems - an area now termed "Cosmetic Gynaecology". What turned out was a meeting of old friends, making new acquaintances, catching up with supplier representatives, meeting new ones and buying more books!! It was a fulfilling 3 days for me as although there were not many new things, it was nice revision and recapping time. The best part of all of course was being able to personally meet Dr Pierre Fournier - the "inventor" of liposuciton under tumescent anesthesia. If not for him, liposucton would n't be what it is today. At 84years old, his mind was still sharp and his sense of humor remarkable! He made his wife take all the pictures with us and informed her that he w...
