User Consultation Report

Consultation

Yuri photo

During the consultation, Dr. Benjamin discussed with Yuri her skin concerns and the most suitable procedure that could possibly treat her existing skin problems.

Yuri's main concern was her skin pigmentation. However, Dr. Benjamin ascertained that Yuri's pigmentation is still light. The more serious problem is her dull skin and small wrinkles around her eyes.

Thus, he decided to give Yuri a MOSAIC Treatment. To address her skin pigmentation concerns, Dr. Benjamin also added in an IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) Treatment.

Treatment

IPL + MOSAIC

An IPL Treatment gives the skin radiance by adding colour, while the MOSAIC gives the face a smoother texture and evens out one's skin tone.

The IPL Treatment is a type of photorejuvenation to address pigment skin problem such as freckles, sun spot, age spots and worsening melasma.

The MOSAIC is a form of fractional laser which requires no downtime and is complication-free. It is suitable for all skin types and is one of the more popular treatments in Singapore, as the results and effects are good. As a person ages, their collagen content reduces. The MOSAIC helps to stimulate fiber and promotes collagen growth. The equipment used for this treatment is FDA approved and has been clinically tested and accredited by MOH.
