uis Barragan, a Mexican architect and engineer once said, Any work of
architecture which does not express serenity is a mistake. I believe
the same principle that applies to the design of a building applies to
the design of a face; any treatment done on the face which fails to bring out
the serenity and harmony of an individual is a mistake, says aesthetics physician
Dr. Anna Hoo Jen Shi.
In order to bring out the harmony of ones face, an aesthetics physician
needs to be an artist, who at the same time, uncannily masters many aspects
of science, for example, the science behind each treatment, the response of an
individual patients body toward the treatment, and how to combine different
treatment modalities to achieve the best results.
Indeed, her expertise in the use of injectables has led to her becoming a certified
Asian regional trainer in the botulinum toxin A brand of Botox, as well as the filler
brand Juvederm. Dr. Anna frequently presents talks, lectures and demonstrations
on injection techniques for the eye area in Malaysia, Singapore, the Philippines
and China.
Of her work, Dr. Anna says: The greatest joy is derived from seeing that my
work helps to improve the lives of my patients.
Born in Alor Setar, Kedah, Dr. Anna obtained her degree in medicine at the
University of Science Malaysia in 2002. A Diploma in Aesthetic Medicine from the
American Academy of Aesthetic Medicine (USA) followed in 2006. That same
year she obtained a Certificate in Serdev Sutures in Aesthetic Surgery from the
New Bulgarian University, Bulgaria.
Her hunger for knowledge in this area of special interest led her to obtain
a Fellowship in Dermatologic Laser Surgery from Mahidol University, Bangkok,
Thailand in 2008. Then in 2009, she was Board Certified by the American
Academy of Aesthetic Medicine (USA).

devised and which he is still improving

The K-Lift technique can be used
on any part of the face and body to
correct early ptosis and flabbiness of
the tissue. The K-Lift is the most recent
method for remodelling and rejuvenating
the body and the face. It is a less

leaving few puncture marks or no scars.
There is rapid recovery, less swelling and
less ecchymosis. Patients can rapidly
resume normal activities, explains Dr.
Kuljit.

Dr. Kuljit stands by the fact that we
live in a day and age where aesthetic
medicine has advanced in leaps and
bounds, but that is truly not enough as
we must also look after our nutrition
and our well-being. Therefore, combining
all this, he offers patients a customised
service which can enhance and rejuvenate
their looks as well as improve their
overall well-being resulting in more
confidence and happiness in the long

interest in anti-aging medicine. Dr.
Cheah says she thoroughly enjoys
aesthetic medicine because she finds
patient satisfaction especially gratifying.
She asserts, Medical aesthetics is
a natural progression in medical
expansion. Having a physician doing
these medical treatments gives us
credibility and public confidence. The
most rewarding part of medical aesthetics
is to see a patients glow of happiness
and boosted self-confidence after the
procedures. The results are often soft
and subtle, but at the same time truly
remarkable.
