[Beauty Review] Restylane Fillers for the Chin by The Clifford Clinic on 19 Jul 2017

Is it possible to get a 'new' chin every two years within 5 mins?  Yes, it is and I just got my 'new' chin from The Clifford Clinic... yeah!

Actually, I had short and receding chin, which made my side profile less than perfect.  To push the chin out, there are a few options, namely:

1. Chin Augmentation or Implant 
2. Jaw Surgery to push the chin out 
3. Using Fillers

When I first visited The Clifford Clinic and told Dr Gerald Ee about my short chin, he advised me to do fillers to see if I liked the results, before considering any chin implant or jaw surgery.  I thought this was a better idea as it was a temporary solution for about a year plus, without any risk to the body as it would be absorbed by the body without any harm.

Since I could see my temporary 'new' chin first, I said, "YES, let's do it!"

I even documented it in a blog post as I was very happy with the result.  Check out my previous blog post at: https://elaineheng.blogspot.sg/2015/07/juvederm-fillers-at-clifford-clinic-by.html

It had been close to two years since I did my chin fillers and most of it were absorbed already, so I went back to my favourite Aesthetics Clinic, The Clifford Clinic, to get my 'new' chin.

Let's take a look at the before photos, taken a few minutes before Dr Ee injected the fillers in the chin area for me.  My chin didn't look defined and yup, it was short and receding.

 Dr Ee used Restylane fillers for my chin which is safe for the body.

Don't be scared by this needle cos it was super thin and everything was done under 5 mins.  So you can zip into The Clifford Clinic during lunchtime to get a 'new' chin and zip out to grab your lunch and no one will know but yet they will wonder why you suddenly look pretty!

 Dr Ee is one of the most meticulous doctors I have ever seen.  Just look at how he did his 'measurement' to ensure that the area where he injected the fillers would make my 'new' chin look even and project out nicely.

 And yes, the needle went in.

So was it painful?  I would say that it felt like an ant bite.  Anyways, it was done under 5 mins so everything was worth it when I saw my 'new' chin.

After the fillers were injected, Dr Ee has to use his judgement to knead the fillers in place.  I think this step is extremely important to get the nicest looking chin.

Hence ladies and gentlemen, if you are thinking of getting a 'new' chin like me, please find an experienced doctor like Dr Ee, who can create beautiful chins ya.

Look at how Dr Ee kneaded my new chin... he took a lot of care to give me my beautiful chin back again after two years.

 

And yes, we were almost done.  I couldn't wait to see my 'new' chin!

Check out my 'new' chin!  It looked so beautiful... OMG!  I am so loving it!

Now my chin looked more defined with a better projection when looking at the side profiles of my face.

Dr Ee has never failed me all these while hence I always go back to him whenever I need help with beauty aspects.

 Super love my chin and so glad that it can long me for another two years before I redo it again.

Thanks Dr Gerald Ee for giving me a 'new' chin yet again!  Don't really know what to do without you.

[Media Drop/Beauty Review]Hadawaka Gel from AMPLEUR

To be frank, I used to be a skeptic when I hear of skincare products that claim to achieve multiple effects.  But this year, my opinion has changed after coming in contact with a few skincare products from Japan and Hadawaka Gel is one of them.

Hadawaka Gel is made in the lab, from AMPLEUR, by a renowned doctor.  It is sold under the cosme brand in Japan.  As it is made in a Lab, it is on a higher price range.

Hadawaka Gel from AMPLEUR

Hadawaka Gel is a multifunctional 'Anti-aging and Brightening' gel cream, created for protection against sun spots and wrinkles.  It has the most perfect combination of effects as these are what I want to achieve due to my age.

This product is thoughtfully designed with a small spatula hidden inside the packaging.  This way, we won't need to use our fingers to dip into the gel at all.

Hadawaka Gel is totally free of colourants, mineral oils, alcohol and parabens.  For me, I am super scared of mineral oils as I used cleansing oil from a certain Japanese brand before and my skin broke out into pimples the new few days after using it.  I always wonder why and when I looked at the ingredients and checked them out, I found out that mineral oil will cause blockage of the pores, leading to pimples.

Alcohol is bad as well as it tends to dry the skin up, causing more problems like flaky skin, irritated skin and fine lines.

So thank goodness, Hadawaka Gel is free from such ingredients.

The main ingredients in Hadawaka Gel includes:

•    Arbutin (Hydroquinone deribvative) for Brightening

•    Dipotassium glycyrrhizinate for Rough skin prevention

•    Emollient, squalane for Moisturize

•    Hyaluronic acid Na for Water retention

•    Ceramide for Support on barrier function

•    Vitamin C derivative for Resilience, elasticity and firming (promotion of collagen production)

•    Waltheria indica leaf extract, ferulic acid, daisy flower extract, creatinine and saxifraga stolonifera extract for Transparency

•    15 amino acids(taurine, glutamic acid, serine, proline, aspartic acid, etc.) for Skin empowerment

•    Chrysanthellum indicum extract (golden chamomile),vitamin E for Anti-oxidation, promote blood circulation

After cleansing my face, all I need to do is to take an appropriate amount (slightly more than an average pearl-size amount) and gently massage into my entire face from the center to the side.  If your skin is leaning more towards to the dry type, you may want to add a little extra amount.

See how glowy the skin looks after the Hadawaka Gel is applied to it.

This gel is suitable for the body too.  All you need to do is to apply it to cleansed skin after shower.  Scoop an appropriate amount and gently massage with your fingers focusing on the areas where dryness or dullness are seen.

I love Hadawaka Gel for its non-oily texture that blends into my skin smoothly without any sticky feeling.  It is absorbed by the skin quickly so for working ladies like me, I can put on my makeup immediately after using it.

The Hadawaka Gel gives my skin a brightening effect and impacts translucency to the skin.  At the same time, it also helps to prevent roughness and flaky skin, extremely suitable for mature skin like mine.  Through long term usage, I am very confident that Hadawaka Gel can help me slow down the appearance of fine lines.
