Plastic Surgery Singapore
If you are new to plastic surgery, you're likely to start with Google search by Googling plastic surgery related keywords. This is an example of the Google search results...

 So, how do you decide based on the above sample search results? 

Bear in mind that the plastic surgery clinic's high ranking on page 1 and visible advertisements on Google (using Google Adwords) may not be truly reflective of the doctor's skills and experience.
The plastic surgery clinic's ranking and visibility depends on their Google Adwords advertising, Google's search engine algorithms and also can be manipulated by some SEO (search engine optimisation) professionals and tools. 

In summary, you need to rely on your own online and offline research as well. Other considerations include:
  • Feedback from other doctors and patients needs to be incorporated. 
  • Its also important to take into consideration ‘where’ the actual visit is, as the management of the hospital or the clinic plays an important role to provide crucial support to the practising plastic surgeon.
  • Is the medical centre well equipped and has a resident anaesthetist?

Here is a list of plastic surgeons and plastic surgery clinics/centers organised by hospital and center for your easy reference...

10 Best Natural Ozempic Alternatives 2024

By Dr Frank Yap, MD -
Image
If there's anything the Ozempic craze has taught us, it's that people are hungry for weight loss solutions. But as the world leans into wellness, many are now looking beyond pharmaceuticals, turning their gaze to nature's arsenal for blood sugar balance and metabolic health. The 2023 report from the World Obesity Federation estimates that the economic impact of overweight and obesity will surpass $4.3 trillion annually by 2035. In the U.S., the CDC  reports the prevalence of obesity in adults was 41.9% measured from 2017 to March 2020. This represented an increase from 30.5% from 1999 to 2000. The estimated annual medical costs were roughly $173 billion in 2019 dollars. Prescriptions for semaglutide have doubled since mid-2021, rising to more than 1.2 million. In April 2023, a spokesperson for Novo Nordisk, maker of semaglutide, said the drugs are now available in pharmacies nationwide. Semaglutide is sold under the name Ozempic as a diabetes dr

What do they have in common? They all died from 'cancer'. Prevention holds greater value than both cure and early detection.

This tendency is reflected in the limited coverage of preventative strategies within mainstream media channels. Can foods and diet influence your risk of getting cancer? What types of foods reduce your risk and types that might increase your risk? What about vitamin and mineral supplements?

10 Best Cosmeceutical Ingredients of 2024

By Dr Frank Yap, MD -
Image
A cosmeceutical is essentially a skincare product that contains a biologically active compound that is thought to have pharmaceutical effects on the skin. Both pharmaceutical and cosmeceutical grade skin care products actively effect skin at a cellular level, whereas cosmetic products have a shorter-term effect. They are usually used by doctors to restore pH, remove pigmentation, or restore the skin barrier. Cosmeceuticals must scientifically verify the claims stated on their packaging; as it is accepted that these formulations are backed by science, clinical studies, and rigorous testing. The main areas of concerns that these formulations address are ageing skin, sensitive/sensitized skin, sun damaged skin, acne/oily skin, loss of tone and elasticity, as well as superficial lines & wrinkles to encourage rapid cellular turnover that will renew and re-texturize the skin. Peptides composed of chains of amino acids give proteins their structure, and transport nutrients and signal mess

How Your Microbiome Influences Your Dietary Recommendations

By Dr Frank Yap, MD -
Image
In the ever-evolving field of bioenergetic medicine, the relationship between our diet, microbiome, and overall health continues to unveil complex and intriguing connections. At the heart of this exploration is the legacy of Ray Peat, Ph.D., whose theories on sugar intake and metabolic function have sparked widespread debate and interest among researchers and health enthusiasts alike. In this interview below, repeat guest Georgi Dinkov, a bioenergetic medicine researcher and I delve into the nuanced understanding of how our microbiome influences dietary choices, particularly the contentious decision between starch and fruit as preferable sources of carbohydrates. Dinkov also reviews groundbreaking research and innovative treatments that aim to manipulate cellular energy pathways to combat cancer. My Take on the Fruit Versus Starch Controversy Many of Peat’s followers believe that he advocated large amounts of sugar, but that’s not the case. Sugar, or glucose more specifically
