You can look naturally beautiful through aesthetic treatments – but here’s the catch

March 9, 2020

Does the idea of looking like our natural, best selves sound too good to be true? That’s because there is a catch: find a doctor with a a good artistic sense.

Table of Contents

One of the biggest misconceptions people have about aesthetic treatments is that there is a standard template that aesthetic doctors use and patients have to follow simply because society has dictated that beautiful people must look a certain way.

However, we forget that beauty standards are not real: you may think that the girl on the magazine cover looks beautiful, but the truth is that you’ll never look like the girl in the magazine; even the girl herself may never look quite like her on the magazine, thanks to the prevalence of photo editing!

While we encourage everyone to seek their own kind of beauty, it does not mean we cannot improve ourselves with the occasional self-care routine, facial, or aesthetic treatment.

These are not treatments that drastically change how you look; instead, they help you to perfect desired areas, much like how you would iron out the creases in your clothes or erase pencil lines in order to create an artwork that pleases your eyes – think of it as self-improvement, rather than plain vanity.

Does the idea of being able to look like our natural, best selves sound too good to be true?

That’s because there is a catch: you need to find a good doctor who has the medical know-how and an artistic sense to know what looks best on you.

HOW TO FIND A DOCTOR WHO CAN GIVE YOU NATURAL AESTHETIC TREATMENT RESULTS

Hands On Session Where Dr Ivan Puah Performed Injectables On A Patient

You can think of a good doctor as an artist who is trying to create a painting – he or she needs to know how to use the right tools and painting techniques and be able to visualise the best possible painting he or she can create.

Combining science with art is something that Dr Ivan Puah from Amaris B. Clinic strongly believes in when it comes to his practice.

Dr Ivan Puah is an accredited doctor in Singapore with indisputable technical skills: he has more than 15 years of experience in aesthetic medicine, giving FDA-approved cosmetic injectables under his belt, and even received training and guidance in syringe liposculpture, fat grafting, and thread lift by French plastic surgeon, Dr Pierre Francois Fournier. He also further honed his surgical skills in gynecomastia surgeries in San Francisco.

Coupled with his aesthetic sense and artistic mastery, Dr Ivan Puah works like an artist crafting masterpieces to create a sculpted, natural-looking body.

Since 2004, Amaris B. Clinic has been providing personalised body contouring treatments tailored to each client’s body type and desired outcome. They are 100% committed to helping clients achieve their desired results with skill-based treatments and clinically-proven technology.

AESTHETIC TREATMENTS THAT MAKE YOU LOOK NATURALLY BEAUTIFUL

Natural Aesthetic Treatments 1

Now that you know how to look for a doctor to help you create your most naturally beautiful self, the next question is: which aesthetic treatments should you go for?

Dr Ivan Puah shares his top recommendations for aesthetic treatments that will enhance your beauty so that you can gain confidence in looking like your best self everyday:

Pico Fractional Laser

If you ever thought that beautiful skin isn’t possible because of the damage done by environmental factors and genetics, Amaris B. Clinic’s signature treatment, Pico Fractional Laser, will help your skin to go back to its natural, healthy state.

Coupled with the SkinSOS! Botanical Facial Series designed by Dr. Ivan Puah, Pico Fractional Laser can treat many common skin concerns, including acne, scarring, rosacea, skin pigmentation and dullness, and prevent ageing before it even happens.

Note that laser treatments can only be performed by a medical doctor trained and qualified to operate a laser machine. For example, Dr Ivan Puah holds a Graduate Diploma in Family Practice Dermatology from the National University of Singapore and is the official appointed trainer for Pico laser in Singapore.

Vaser Liposuction

If you’ve been working hard to lose weight but have not been able to see results in targeted areas, you’re not alone.

Weight loss is usually noticed in the upper body, but lower body areas such as the hips, bottom, thighs, and abdomen do not show results as easily. This can result in an uneven distribution of fat and in turn an unnatural body proportion where certain areas have more fat than others.

Vaser Liposuction is an ultrasonic-assisted liposuction that you may consider if you would like to gain a more natural and beautiful shape. This treatment uses ultrasonic sound wave energy to liquefy selected unwanted fat cells without causing a disturbance or damage to surrounding vital connective tissues. Doing so allows the doctor to gently remove the fat cells, creating a smoother and more defined body contour.

Carrying out this treatment requires medical knowledge and an eye for body aesthetics. A skilled and experienced liposuction doctor should be able to decide where and how much fat to best remove for a body shape that fits you best.

You should find an accredited liposuction doctor trained in this field with decades of experience to create your ideal body shape. For instance, Dr Ivan Puah is one of the few accredited by the Ministry of Health Singapore to carry out this body contouring procedure.

ADR-C Breast Enhancement

According to research by UCLA and Cal State Los Angeles, nearly 70% of women are not satisfied with their breasts due to reasons such as size and breast asymmetry that may be caused by biological factors (weight loss, pregnancy, and breastfeeding) – if you count yourself as one of the 70%, you may consider doing breast enhancement surgery.

ADR-C Breast Enhancement is one of Amaris B. Clinic’s signature treatments. Fat tissue is first removed using liposuction from parts with a substantial amount of fat. Subsequently, the extracted fat is separated and purified. Lastly, the doctor will reinject the fat into your breasts.

Compared to breast implants, there is minimal scarring and less invasive. The chances of tissue rejection are null because it uses your body fat.

Ultherapy

if you notice that your skin has started to sag and would like to regain the tightness and lift, Ultherapy is an FDA-approved non-invasive procedure that may be able to do just the trick.

The procedure involves delivering focused ultrasound energy to areas under the skin to trigger your body’s natural response and restart collagen regeneration–collagen and elastin production gives you that desired firmer and younger-looking skin.

Ultherapy bypasses the skin’s surface and does not cause any adverse effects on your skin tissues. Hence, there is no downtime. You can resume your normal activities immediately after treatment – like a quick pampering session that you can have in the middle of your workday.

Amaris B. Clinic is one of the providers in Singapore to offer authentic Ultherapy treatment. Beware of providers that use counterfeit devices that may result in side effects such as burns to the treated area – not quite the natural result you want!
