Botox for Iliopsoas Syndrome, Psoas Spasm and Snapping Hip

Quick answer.  Botox (botulinum toxin type A), injected into the iliopsoas under ultrasound guidance, may relieve deep groin or hip pain caused by psoas spasm. It may also reduce a painful internal snapping hip when an overactive psoas tendon is responsible. Evidence is limited and comes mainly from spasticity and mixed myofascial pain studies, so […]

Breast Implant Cost in Singapore, Fees, Inclusions and Questions to Ask

The Clifford Clinic confirms two all-in prices, S$15,000 for Motiva Ergonomix (‘Ergo 1’) and S$18,000 for the Premium Motiva JOY programme with Ergonomix2 (‘Ergo 2’), both before GST. The cost of breast augmentation in Singapore is determined by the implant brand and model, the surgeon’s fee, anaesthesia, the operating facility and the follow-up care included. […]

Botox for Tight Hip Flexors and Anterior Hip Pain in Runners and Cyclists

Quick answer. Botox (botulinum toxin type A) may relax persistently overactive hip flexors, including the iliacus and psoas, when anterior hip or groin pain has not improved enough with stretching and physiotherapy. Evidence for this specific use is limited and mainly indirect, so treatment is reserved for carefully selected, resistant cases. Medically reviewed by Dr […]

Laser Circumcision in Singapore – How It Works and How It Compares

Laser circumcision uses a focused carbon dioxide beam to cut the foreskin and seal small blood vessels at the same time. This reduces bleeding during the procedure. It is the main method in the Singapore public system for children, where KK Women’s and Children’s Hospital performs around 1,100 to 1,200 childhood circumcisions a year using […]

Botox for Quadratus Lumborum (QL) Pain and Stubborn One Sided Back Spasm

Quick answer.  Botox (botulinum toxin type A) injected into the quadratus lumborum may relieve persistent one sided lower back or flank spasm when physiotherapy, dry needling and trigger point injections have provided only temporary relief. Direct evidence for treating this specific muscle is limited, so the case for treatment comes mainly from the muscle’s behaviour […]

Vasectomy Reversal in Singapore: Success Rates, Techniques and What to Expect

Medically reviewed by Dr Nathaniel Heah, Consultant Urologist, FAMS (Urology). Clinical focus: Andrology and Men’s Health. Last reviewed: June 2026. Next review: June 2027. Vasectomy is intended to be a permanent form of contraception, but circumstances can change. A new relationship, the loss of a child, or simply a change of heart can lead a […]

Breast Augmentation With Implants in Singapore

Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure that increases or restores breast volume using implants or, in selected cases, fat transfer. Implant planning is dimensional rather than cosmetic. Chest width, breast tissue thickness, implant diameter and projection, incision route and the plane the implant sits in each constrain the others, so the plan is built from […]

Knee Pain in Active Adults and Athletes: Regenerative Injection Options

Regular physical activity confers substantial health benefit, but it also imposes repeated mechanical load on the knee. Running, gym training, racquet sports and football load the joint repeatedly through the same arc of movement, and a proportion of participants reach a point at which knee pain begins to limit the activities they value. In this […]

Muslim Circumcision (Sunat) in Singapore – A Guide for Parents

Sunat, the circumcision widely observed in Muslim families, is performed in Singapore as a straightforward day procedure. At The Clifford Surgery, boys are treated from the age of 6, usually with numbing cream and local anaesthesia rather than general anaesthesia, and go home the same day. Most families choose the school holidays for their son’s […]

What to Expect Before, During and After a Knee Injection

A knee injection follows a predictable sequence, whether the preparation includes PRP, hyaluronic acid, Conjuran or a corticosteroid. Knowing what to expect from a knee injection reduces procedural anxiety and improves adherence to the aftercare and rehabilitation that determine the final result. This guide covers the knee injection journey before, during and after, with clinical perspective […]
