2024. Blooming into the new year as the best version of myself, one tiny step at a time.
This 2024, I decided to kickstart my beauty regime with a bit of skin booster and facial lifting, at none other than Kaiteki Skin Aesthetic Clinic.

Again, if you've missed out on the previous write-ups, this series of aesthetic treatments are part of my self care regime, to not only minimally enhance my appearance here and there, but also ultimately as a confidence booster.
A good night's sleep is so important for me.
Do you that we spend one-third of our life sleeping? I'm probably not the most reliable source to throw out numbers here, but uncle-google tells me otherwise. Figures aside, I think I found my holy grail. I havn't slept that well in the past couple of months.
I'm sure you've heard of Keto Diet by now. I mean, it's all the rage these days. In addition to weight loss, keto have also been shown to enhance energy levels, improve blood sugar control, reduce inflammation, boost brain health and a great alternative for those who are diabetic.
This is a continuation of my self-care journey. Read Part 1 : Regaining A Youthful Appearance At Kaiteki Skin Aesthetic Clinic SS2 Here.
Two weeks later, I went back to Kaiteki for the filler treatment.
I'd also like to note here that filler treatments are typically used add volume to the face, body and to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Fillers are typically made out of hyaluronic acid, which is a substance that can be dissolved by the body overtime, hence it is not permanent in nature, lasting for about 9-12 months depending on type and care.
Fillers also tend to 'expand' when mixed with bodily fluid within the skin, so it's important to seek advise from a professional beforehand and not to over-inject. And as for me, Dr. Xiao Chien only administer 2cc of filler to add volume to my forehead (imagine 20% of a teaspoon), in 2 seperate sessions, within a span of 1 month.
#2 Session : Filler TreatmentA teeny amount of Filler (Juvederm) was filled into 3 sunken areas on my forehead, through 2 very tiny incision on my hairline. using the cannula method. I did not apply any numbing cream in the process, as local anesthesia was administer on the injection point. It took only about 30 minutes to complete the session. Optimum results can be seen after 10-14 days and can lasts for about 9-12 months with proper care.
