Refresh: One Face Medical Aesthetic Review

Did you read my post on One Face Skin & Aesthetics Clinic? Well if you haven't you can read more about them here. If you have, remember that I have found a fantastic place for pigmentation and adult acne concern? Yes! This is my follow up post about that!

My aunt Samantha just done her pigmentation treatment with Dr David from One Face Skin & Aesthetics Clinic formally known as One Face Medical Aesthetics Clinic. Before the treatment, as you can see from her image, her pigmentation issue is her biggest concern and it's also pretty obvious based on my personal view.

This image can tell you all how serious her pigmentation is

One Face Skin & Aesthetics Clinic is just conveniently located at Tanjong Pajar with just a few minutes walk from the MRT. If you haven't visit the introduction blog post, here is another few image of the clinic.

Cleansing her face for the treatment and photo taking.

I really like this corner which is used as waiting area cum pre-consultation corner.

Dr David appeared live on local TV program to talk about pigmentation

Samantha getting a pre-treatment briefing about the pros and cons.

After the briefing, she is than being ask to proceed to take picture before the start of the treatment.

After photo is taken, Samantha went to Dr David consultation room to have a consultation on her current skin condition.
Consultation was done in about 10mins and it's time for treatment!

Applying gel to her face

With the experienced hands, the yellow-orangey laser light is used to treat pigmentation, uneven skin tone and for skin brightening purposes, without pain or downtime.

Lately Samantha is also having some hormonal acne breakout and redness,
so Dr added the laser program to treat her acne problems as well.

The treatment was done very quickly.

Just look at the big difference without any editing or makeup! Left is before and right is after. Amazing right?

Samantha went back for a review 2 weeks after the treatment and was advised that she should continuing using the skincare product from One Face Skin & Aesthetics Clinic to maintain her face, as the weather in Singapore are too glazingly hot, as well as her pigment are those kind of stubborn one which will be coming back all the time. Using a good skincare and enough sunblock will be the most cost effective way to maintain after the treatment.

We would like to thanks Dr David and the team at One Face Skin & Aesthetics Clinic for this eye opening experience and their hospitality

So now you know more about One Face Skin & Aesthetics Clinic, I shall tell you what I'm actually doing there.

Actually the treatment which I'm invited to do is to treat pigmentation. However I don't have any pigmentation "yet", so I invited my auntie to receive the treatment instead.

What's Pigmentation and what's the cause of it?

Well regardless of your age, if you don't apply sunscreen or even if you have freckles since young, pigmentation will become an issue! Pigmentation is caused by sun exposure and specifically the UVA rays which penetrate deep into your skin and cause ageing. It is a skin condition where patches of the skin turn into a darker shade of colour due to excessive presence of melanin, found on skin surface. Melanin is produced by melanocytes and functions as miniature umbrellas to skin cells to protect the skin from sun and UV damages.

The best way to prevent pigmentation if you haven't have it now is to use the right amount of sunblock. Reapply it after a few hours throughout the day – these are what dermatologists consider the best way to prevent freckles, dark spots and of course, skin cancer but the truth is majority of us can’t keep up with this regimen or some are even lazy to do so.

In a sunny weather like Singapore, skipping sunblock is probably the worst thing you can ever do to your skin. Especially if you drive, you might notice that one side of your face is slightly darker and this is because UV rays have the ability to penetrate through glass windows. Similarly, office ladies are not spared from the brutal UV rays either. If your work desk is near the window panels, this is a clear sign that you have to step up on your sun protection efforts.

Research has found that UV rays are responsible for 80% of skin ageing – think premature wrinkles, pigmentation problems, less bouncy skin, rough skin texture and sallow skin!

You definitely wouldn’t want to look haggard when you are still in the prime of your life. So remember to layer on your sunblock even when you are home!! It's not just about the sunblock. It's also factor alot on choosing the right one!

Many have the misconception that the higher the SPF level, the better protection we will get. However, that’s not the case. In fact, using products that are too strong may cause stress to our skin. Generally speaking, SPF 20 provides adequate protection for most of us who stay indoors. You will only require sunblock with SPF 30 and above if you are out under the sun most of the time. Removal of freckles, dark spots and other pigmentation problems can prove to be a hassle. So practicing early intervention is the best way to keep yourself looking youthful and radiant.

For those of you already have serious issue from pigmentation, fear not as One Face Skin & Aesthetics Clinic is here to help!

My aunt "Samantha" met up with Dr David and team to have a consultation to see if she's a suitable candidates for laser treatment.

The clinic look really professional and felt really comfortable after stepping in.

Samantha was given a medicated cream name DPplus for pigmentation to apply at alternate week before going back after 3 weeks to see if she still need to proceed with the laser. Yes there's cream to apply pre-treatment. In some cases, if you are lucky you do not need to continue with laser treatment after applying the cream as it lightens your pigment.
