Body concerns are three different problems that are often sold as one: fat, loose skin and muscle separation. Radiofrequency, cooling, ultrasound and prescription weight-loss medication each act on a different one, so the plan starts by naming which is present. This page lists the body conditions and treatments on the site.

Advanced body contouring in Singapore: what the phrase covers

Advanced body contouring in Singapore usually means combining devices rather than relying on one: radiofrequency microneedling for a compact deposit and the skin over it (the 4K Body Lift), microwave for fat with laxity and cellulite (Onda Pro), monopolar RF for skin that has lost recoil (VF Lift – Vertical Figure Lift) and electromagnetic muscle work (Z Sculpt). The plan starts by naming which of fat, loose skin and muscle separation is present; the concern page is sagging tummy, buttocks and arms.

How assessment works for the body

Dr Sin Yong examines the area himself, at rest and in movement, and names the mechanism before naming a device. The consultation process and how fees are quoted are described on their own pages; if something feels wrong after a treatment done anywhere, the complication care page explains what to do.

“Losing weight shrinks fat cells; it does not tighten the skin that held them.”

4K Body Lift: Dr Sin Yong’s radiofrequency body sculpting protocol on Secret Duo, for skin laxity and contour after weight change.

Dr Sin Yong’s approach on the body
Sagging tummy, buttocks and arms. Three protocols Dr Sin Yong developed cover most of the body work: VF Lift – Vertical Figure Lift (the body protocol) (Volnewmer monopolar radiofrequency along vertical vectors) where the skin has lost its recoil, Time Freeze Laser LCLR® where laxity and a thin fat layer coexist, and the 4K Body Lift (Secret DUO radiofrequency microneedles) where a compact, pinchable deposit is the dominant finding. Skin is treated before fat. Marked excess skin after large weight loss and abdominal wall separation are surgical questions and are referred. Concern page: sagging tummy, buttocks & arms.
