Yellowish patches around the eyes can be surprising and sometimes worrying especially when they appear without pain or irritation. These patches are often related to a condition known as Xanthelasma, which may be linked to how the body processes fats.

If you feel like your skin looks older than your actual age, sun exposure may be playing a role. Photo-aging refers to premature skin aging caused by long-term ultraviolet (UV) exposure, and it is one of the most common concerns assessed in aesthetic and dermatology clinics in Singapore.

Skin brightening refers to a range of treatments designed to improve uneven skin tone, reduce pigmentation, and restore a radiant appearance. Unlike skin “whitening,” which aims to lighten overall skin colour (and may raise safety concerns), brightening focuses on treating localised dullness or discolouration, such as dark spots, post-acne marks, and sun damage.

A thread lift is a minimally invasive aesthetic procedure that uses medical-grade threads to gently lift and reposition sagging skin. When used on the jawline, thread lifts aim to improve facial contours by reducing the appearance of jowls and restoring a more defined shape.

Melasma is a common skin condition that causes patches of pigmentation, usually brown or grey-brown, on the face. It’s more common in women, particularly during hormonal changes such as pregnancy or while taking oral contraceptives, but it can affect anyone.

Whether you’ve booked it to tackle pigmentation, smooth out uneven tone, or simply give your skin a refresh, it’s normal to feel curious (or even a little nervous) about what comes next.

Freckles are small, flat spots on the skin that contain higher concentrations of melanin, the pigment that gives our skin, hair, and eyes their colour.

Pigmentation concerns such as sunspots, melasma, and uneven skin tone are highly common in Singapore’s sunny climate.

Masks help reduce the spread of germs, but they can also disrupt the delicate balance of your skin. When you breathe and speak, heat and moisture build up under the mask, softening the outer layer of your skin. Add friction from fabric rubbing against your cheeks and nose, and you have the perfect recipe for barrier damage. Over time, this can heighten skin sensitivity, leading to redness, dryness and even small cracks that let irritants penetrate more easily.

No two faces age the same way. One person may notice early signs of pigmentation in their 30s, while another may struggle with skin laxity or dullness in their 40s and beyond. Some experience hormonally driven changes, while others see the effects of long-term sun exposure or stress.
