Treatments — General
Dr. Sin Yong assesses your specific concerns, anatomy and goals at consultation and recommends the most appropriate treatment or combination. There is no one-size-fits-all approach at Atelier Aesthetics — every protocol is individually customised.
Pain levels vary by treatment. Energy-based treatments such as HIFU, radiofrequency and laser produce transient warmth or pressure sensations. Injectable treatments use topical anaesthesia. Dr. Sin Yong discusses expected sensations for each treatment at consultation.
Most treatments at Atelier Aesthetics have minimal to no downtime. Energy-based lifting treatments (VF Lift, Svelte Touch, Z-Lift) typically require no recovery. Laser resurfacing may involve 5–10 days of mild healing. Injectable treatments may cause mild bruising or swelling for 3–7 days.
Yes — many patients at Atelier Aesthetics receive combination protocols. The VF Lift is frequently combined with the Time Freeze Laser or R2 Glow; Profhilo is often paired with BTX. Combination treatments are carefully planned to sequence modalities optimally without over-treatment.
Pricing at Atelier Aesthetics varies by treatment type, product volume used and protocol complexity. Dr. Sin Yong provides a personalised treatment and cost estimate at consultation based on your individual concerns and goals. WhatsApp +65 8023 7170 to enquire.
This depends on the treatment. Dermal fillers and BTX produce visible results within 24–72 hours. Energy-based treatments such as the VF Lift and Time Freeze Laser LCLR® produce progressive collagen-remodelling improvement over 4–12 weeks. Laser resurfacing results continue improving for 3–6 months. Dr. Sin Yong provides a realistic timeline at consultation.
Most aesthetic treatments at Atelier Aesthetics are appropriate from age 21 onwards. Preventive protocols such as early BTX for dynamic lines may be suitable from the mid-20s. Dr. Sin Yong assesses each patient individually.

After Your Treatment
For most injectable treatments at Atelier Aesthetics: avoid strenuous exercise, alcohol and saunas for 24–48 hours. Avoid touching or massaging the treated area unless instructed. Mild swelling or bruising is normal and resolves within 3–7 days. Full written aftercare instructions are provided for every treatment.
Injectable treatment results are reviewed at 2 weeks. For ongoing programmes such as hair restoration or skin resurfacing, treatment intervals are typically 4–6 weeks. Dr. Sin Yong designs a personal maintenance schedule for each patient. WhatsApp +65 8023 7170 to schedule a review.
Specific Treatments
The VF Lift (Vertical Facelift) is a fully customised non-surgical facelift protocol pioneered by Dr. Sin Yong and presented at the CLASSYS APAC 2026 International Conference. It addresses lifting, puffiness reduction and volume restoration simultaneously in a single session — tailored zone by zone to each patient's individual anatomy.
Standard HIFU and Ultherapy apply uniform parameters to every patient. The VF Lift is individually customised — Dr. Sin Yong maps each patient's face and assigns specific energy type, depth and intensity to each zone. It also combines HIFU with radiofrequency in a single protocol, addressing lifting, fat reduction and collagen restoration simultaneously.
Svelte Touch is a non-surgical lifting and firming treatment at Atelier Aesthetics that delivers radiofrequency and ultrasound energy simultaneously. Together they lift descended facial tissue, firm the skin and stimulate collagen — on both the face and body. It is particularly suited to sagging jowls, double chin, nasolabial folds and body areas including the tummy, flanks and arms.
Yes, in many cases. Non-surgical lifting at Atelier Aesthetics uses energy-based and firming protocols — including the VF Lift, Svelte Touch and Time Freeze Laser LCLR® — to tighten skin and re-support descended tissue. It suits mild to moderate sagging especially well. For pronounced laxity with significant excess skin, Dr. Sin Yong will advise honestly at consultation.
Mild to moderate skin laxity on the tummy often responds well to energy-based skin tightening with radiofrequency and laser protocols. Dr. Sin Yong uses the 4K Body Lift and Svelte Touch to firm loose skin and refine abdominal contour. Very severe laxity or significant diastasis recti may still require surgical assessment.
HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) delivers focused ultrasound energy to the SMAS layer — the same deep fascial layer targeted in surgical facelifts. This causes immediate tissue contraction and stimulates new collagen over the following weeks, progressively lifting and tightening without incisions or anaesthesia. At Atelier Aesthetics, HIFU technology is used as a component of the VF Lift and Time Freeze protocols.
HIFU prices in Singapore vary by device, number of transducer shots, treatment areas and whether HIFU is combined with other modalities. At Atelier Aesthetics, HIFU is integrated into the VF Lift or Time Freeze Laser protocol rather than offered in isolation — a personalised quote is provided at consultation. WhatsApp +65 8023 7170 to enquire.
The best acne scar treatment depends on scar type. At Atelier Aesthetics, Dr. Sin Yong uses the 4D Scar Reconstruction protocol — combining subcision, TCA Cross, Tetra Pro Scar³ laser and LCLR® collagen stimulation for comprehensive improvement across all scar dimensions. Ice pick, rolling and boxcar scars each respond to specific modalities within this protocol.
The Luminescence Laser Lift is Dr. Sin Yong's proprietary zero-downtime laser protocol at Atelier Aesthetics. It achieves CO2-level scar resurfacing and skin improvement without ablation, without scabbing and with zero recovery time. It also incorporates a lifting component from the Time Freeze LCLR® protocol, delivering scar treatment and skin lifting in the same session.
Atelier Aesthetics offers H2LT (Hair Hyperstimulation Laser Therapy) — Dr. Sin Yong's proprietary non-invasive laser protocol for hair density restoration — alongside PRP growth factor treatment and FUE hair transplantation for patients requiring permanent restoration. Both male and female pattern hair loss are treated.
RegenMind is a non-invasive cognitive aesthetic treatment at Atelier Aesthetics that applies targeted electromagnetic neural stimulation to specific brain regions. It reduces chronic stress, improves mood and restores the mind-skin connection — producing both cognitive wellness and skin health benefits. It is available as a standalone session or as a complement to aesthetic skin treatments.
Atelier Aesthetics does not publish a standard price list. Dr. Sin Yong provides a personalised treatment and cost estimate at consultation, based on your specific anatomy, concerns and goals. This ensures treatment is appropriate and priced fairly for your individual situation. WhatsApp +65 8023 7170 to enquire or book.
