My clinical practice is grounded in anatomical mapping and millimetre precision, utilising high-resolution Point-of-Care Ultrasound (POCUS) to deliver structural balance and tissue integrity across facial aesthetic, breast, body, and complex revision surgery.
I was awarded the ISAPS Bronze Medal for Rhinoplasty at the 2025 World Congress in Singapore, an international competitive award reflecting the micro-anatomical discipline I bring to every procedure. This work was recently published in the European Journal of Plastic Surgery. In rhinoplasty, I operate strictly with autologous cartilage grafts, avoiding synthetic implants to ensure long-term stability and natural harmony.
Alongside cosmetic surgery, my work in reconstructive and functional surgery, including gender affirmation, hand surgery and nerve decompression for migraine, directly informs my delicate handling of soft tissue, ensuring long-term health and natural longevity across all cases.
How I Approach a Consultation
Seeking a consultation can feel like a big step. Many patients come having done significant online research, or consulted elsewhere. Please do not feel like you have to know what your exact diagnosis or problem is, or what procedure you need. That is my job and what I am trained to do.
My consultation will help put all that information into context - what applies to you, what does not, and what is realistically achievable. I do not follow a fixed menu of techniques or a standardised aesthetic template.
Over a private 30-45 minutes discussion, I will:
-
clarify the underlying concern - functional, aesthetic, or both
-
discuss options, including non-surgical treatments or no surgery even
-
explain trade-offs and long-term implications
-
discuss expectations, timing, and next steps clearly if treatment is appropriate
There are no sales consultants, coordinators, or conversion targets here. You will speak directly with me throughout. As your surgeon, I will also personally look after you postoperatively. Every dollar goes towards your treatment, healing and comfort.
Consultation Fees (Net):
Cosmetic, Reconstructive or Hand Surgery
New - From $300-350
Follow-Up - $200
No obligation to proceed with treatment. Surgical fees (if applicable) will be discussed transparently.
Who is this for?
Structural
Facial Aesthetics
You value anatomical preservation and long-term harmony over artificial trends. Whether planning a cartilage-only rhinoplasty, or deep plane face/neck lift, every procedure is mapped under ultrasound.
Comparing Singapore vs overseas
You're weighing up China, South Korea, Thailand, Vietnam, or Taiwan against staying in Singapore. I'll give you an honest perspective about the real trade-offs - costs, follow-up access, and revision options.
Revision & Complication Salvage
Something isn't right after a previous procedure. I founded Doctor Stitch, a specialist aftercare service for patients returning from surgery abroad. This has given me first-hand insight into what can go wrong (see below).
Hand, Nerve &
Gender Surgery
From peripheral nerve surgery for migraines to wide-awake hand surgery (WALANT) and gender affirmation, I am able to provide these treatments with microsurgical precision in a private and discreet manner.
Thinking about surgery overseas?
The cost difference is real (but not always). So are the trade-offs: wrong procedure, follow-up access, revision options, and continuity of care. I founded Doctor Stitch specifically to support patients returning from surgery abroad, so I understand this perspective from both sides.
