Circumcision at 40, 50 and Beyond – Never Too Late

There is no upper age limit for circumcision. Men in their forties, fifties, sixties and beyond are circumcised safely every year, and age alone is never a contraindication for circumcision. Age does not change whether the procedure can be done. What changes is what needs checking first, such as diabetes, blood-thinning medication and general healing […]

Can Pico Laser Make Pores Look Smaller? A Practical Guide for Singapore Skin

Written by Dr Bernard Ong. Medically reviewed by Dr Gerard Ee Pico laser can make pores less conspicuous, but it cannot close or remove them.

In one controlled Asian study, three sessions […]

Laser Toning vs Pico Toning in Singapore: Same Technique, Different Pulse

Written by Dr Bernard Ong. Medically reviewed by Dr Gerard Ee Laser toning and Pico toning are closely related, but they are not identical. Both spread low-energy treatment over a broad area and build improvement over a course, rather than trying to erase one brown spot in a single pass. Traditional toning is usually performed […]

How Common Is Circumcision in Singapore – The Statistics

Most men in Singapore are not circumcised.

How Surgeons Plan Breast Implant Size and Profile for Your Frame

Breast implant size is not chosen from a cup-size chart. It is planned from measurement of the breast, chiefly breast-base width and tissue thickness, and then refined by profile, gel cohesivity and lifestyle. Cup sizing is not standardised between bra brands, or even between styles from one brand, so a request for a C cup […]

Types of Breast Implants in Singapore, Silicone, Shape, Surface and Profile

Breast implants are not a single product offered in a range of sizes. They differ across several independent characteristics, namely fill material, shape, surface, gel cohesivity, diameter, projection and shell construction. The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) classifies implants by fill, size, shell, surface texture and shape, and each of those variables changes […]

Why Keloids Come Back After Surgery and How to Reduce the Risk

Excision of a keloid is intuitively appealing. The lesion presents as unwanted tissue, and the obvious remedy is to remove it. That intuition is the source of one of the more damaging errors in scar management. Keloids treated by excision alone recur in the great majority of cases, and the recurrent lesion is sometimes larger […]
