💲 Transparent Pricing
All fees listed upfront (see below for examples). You will receive a detailed quote with no hidden costs.
Consultations
I require at least two consultations (see below) before any cosmetic surgical procedure, in line with international best practice. Singapore MOH also recommends a cooling off period of at least 1 week (mandatory for liposuction; except for foreign tourists) and up to 10 days for procedures requiring sedation or general anaesthesia. During this time, the patient is also advised to seek a second opinion before proceeding.
First consultation: $200-250
Explore your concerns, assess suitability, and discuss all options including non-surgical alternatives or no treatment at all.
Second consultation: $0 (if you wish to proceed)
Surgical markings, photography and consent. Minimum one week after first consultation (see above).
Your consultation is an investment in understanding your options. It is NOT a sales pitch.
Surgical Fees
Surgeon fees only. Consultation and aftercare package fees are charged separately. All prices are in SGD and exclude GST.
As with the majority of modern plastic surgery, I perform all of my procedures in Day Surgery centres only. This represents not only further cost savings to patients as inpatient admissions and round the clock nursing care are not necessary, it also reduces the risk of hospital acquired infections.
Anaesthesia and facility fees however, are still required by Day surgery centres. They have advised this to be approximately 30 to 40% of the total surgeon fee (the difference, if any, will then be refunded); medications (if required) may be charged separately.

Revision surgery is priced at approximately 30-50% above primary fees, reflecting increased complexity, operating time, and technical demand.
If the procedure you are considering is not listed above, please enquire directly. Fees for unlisted procedures will be discussed transparently at consultation.
Combining procedures is possible (e.g. brachioplasty + abdominoplasty) and often more cost-effective than individual pricing. If you are considering multiple procedures, please enquire directly for a personalised quote.

These are illustrative estimates. Your personalised quote will be provided at the end of your first consultation to help you decide if you'd like to proceed. Medications (if necessary) may be charged separately by the facility.
Aftercare
All surgical patients are required to complete the full aftercare programme. This ensures your recovery is monitored personally by me at every stage.
4 post-operative visits:
-
Day 1 or 2 (clinic or house visit, if preferred)
-
1-2 weeks (usually for stitch removal, depending on procedure)
-
2-3 months (early-intermediate result)
-
6-12 months (final result)
Depending on individual circumstances, teleconsultations can replace clinic visits. The aftercare fee is non-refundable for unutilised visits.
Not included: post-operative garments, physiotherapy, manual lymphatic drainage (MLD), red light therapy, or other adjunct recovery treatments. Referrals arranged only when clinically indicated.
Unlike surgery abroad, your actual care doesn't end in the operating theatre. Day 1 or 2 post-operative review can be conducted as a home visit if preferred (no extra charge) because the mornings after surgery are when questions are greatest, and you deserve direct access to your surgeon.
Revision Policy
Within the first year following surgery, surgeon fees for revision will be waived where revision is objectively clinically indicated. Anaesthesia and facility fees remain payable (please note, this does not go to the surgeon). After 12 months, standard fees as above apply.
Payment
-
A deposit of $2,000 is required to secure your surgery date
-
Deposits are refundable minus a $100 administrative fee if cancelled more than 3 weeks before the procedure date
-
Deposits are non-refundable for cancellations within 3 weeks of the procedure date
-
Full payment is due before the procedure (this is a Day Surgery facility requirement)
-
PayNow and bank transfers accepted
Transparent pricing. No hidden costs. No surprises. No salespeople. Just honest surgery and practice.
Reconstructive & Hand Surgery Cases
Fees for reconstructive and hand surgical procedures (i.e medically indicated cases) are determined with reference to the Table of Surgical Procedures (TOSP) published by the Ministry of Health Singapore. Medisave and insurance claimability will be discussed at consultation where applicable.
Non-Surgical Aesthetics Fees
Many patients are keen to explore non-surgical aesthetics but are often confused and unsure of what they want or need. For those who are set on certain treatments, sometimes there are alternatives that they may not be aware of, or considered before. That is why a consultation is the starting point, rather than an ala carte menu of treatment offerings. Regardless, Dr Ng's goal is to help you to look yourself, refreshed and not someone else through a combination of fillers and botulinum toxin.
Fees (consultation included):
Facial Rejuvenation - $1,500 (choose one of the following)
-
Up to 1ml hyaluronic acid filler + up to 50 units botulinum toxin
-
Up to 100 units botulinum toxin (e.g. microbotox of face & neck, or masseters + upper/lower face)
-
Up to 1ml hyaluronic acid filler only (including non-surgical rhinoplasty)
Body Contouring with Botulinum Toxin - $2,000-3,000 (choose one of the following)
-
Trapezius reduction (Traptox / Barbietox) - for shoulder and neck slimming
-
Calf slimming - gastrocnemius reduction
Such treatment requires higher unit doses (typically 200–300 units) so exact dosing and fees determined at consultation based on muscle bulk assessment
For other non-surgical aesthetic treatments not listed above, including lasers, chemical peels, and microneedling, please enquire directly.
