Aesthetic Skin Treatments

Medically supervised aesthetic skin treatments by Dr Chen Qiping including laser therapy for pigmentation and resurfacing, Botox, dermal fillers, and chemical peels for skin rejuvenation.

Aesthetic skin treatments at Chen Dermatology are delivered under the medical oversight of Dr Chen Qiping, a FAMS dermatologist with specific training in both medical and aesthetic dermatology. This distinguishes the clinic from standalone aesthetic centres where procedures may be performed by non-specialist practitioners. Laser treatments form a cornerstone of the aesthetic menu: pigment lasers (Q-switched Nd:YAG, picosecond variants) address sunspots, melasma, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, and Hori's naevus; ablative and non-ablative fractional lasers resurface textural irregularities, enlarged pores, and acne scars; and vascular lasers can target facial redness and capillaries. Injectable treatments include botulinum toxin (Botox) for dynamic wrinkle reduction (forehead, glabellar, crow's feet, jaw slimming) and hyaluronic acid dermal fillers for volume restoration and contouring (nasolabial folds, cheeks, lips, tear trough). Chemical peels using salicylic, glycolic, or trichloroacetic acid are used for superficial to medium-depth skin renewal, targeting uneven tone, dullness, and mild photodamage. All treatments are preceded by a medical consultation to assess skin type, contraindications, and realistic outcome expectations — an approach that reduces the risk of complications such as post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (particularly relevant in Asian skin tones) that can arise from poorly calibrated laser settings in less experienced hands.
