Practice Philosophy
The emphasis in Dr Yuen’s practice is geared towards:
Obtaining optimal and sustainable results with minimal risk and harm to the patient.
Dr Yuen is not a proponent of chasing after brand names and fanciful marketing hype, but chooses to rely on tried and tested techniques that have been revised, improved and customized for Asian skin and patient preferences. The rationale behind this is simple: it is never the machine or brand that gets patients results. It is the doctor behind the machine and the doctor’s hands that get the results, and the doctor’s sense of aesthetics and logic that ensures the results are pleasing.
