One of my skin woes is definitely enlarged pores. I had them since my secondary school days and I always thought that they were caused by my severe acne problems.

It was only until I did a research online that I realized that I was so wrong. Many people, like myself, have the misconception that the depressions formed on the skin due to acne scarrings are enlarged pores when they are really not. And according to dermatologists, the three main factors that determine pore size are whether we have oily skin, our age, and our gender, and our genetic disposition.

How do these factors affect our pore sizes? People who have oily skin tend to have larger pores because the excess sebum, dead skin cells, and dirt will collect in your pores and expand them, causing your pores to look bigger. And as we age, our skin tends to lose its elasticity and when that happens, our skin may sag, enlarging our pores at the same time. Bad news for men, men generally has bigger pores as compared to the ladies. And last but not least, your genetics can determine your pore size too.

So are there any treatments available that can help us decrease our pore size?
Rejuran Healer

Originating from South Korea, Rejuran Healer is somewhat similar to a skinbooster, except for the fact that the main purpose of the treatment is to anti-age. It is derived from salmon DNA polynucleotide and is injected into the dermis to stimulate collagen production. 
The advantage of this treatment includes:
1. Anti-ageing benefits
2. Excellent skin regeneration effects

3. Improved skin texture
4. Regulates sebum secretion and improves skin hydration levels
5. Proven for Safety with no adverse reactions
6. Quick visible results


Where can you try this treatment?
You can try this treatment at Astique. The Aesthetic Clinic. 
I started off with a consultation with Dr Ng Hong Yi to address my skin concern. He recommended me to try Rejuran Skin Healer. Dr Ng is very knowledgeable and experienced. He makes me feel at ease and I always feel very comfortable with him.

Waiting for the numbing cream application.
Do I look like a Mummy? Numbling in progress...
Numbling can help to minimise any discomfort when the Rejuran Healer is delivered into the skin via injections.

WHAT ARE POSSIBLE TREATMENT AREAS?
-Around the eyes
-Under the eyes
-Cheeks
-Around the jaw line





  

Can you see the small lumps on my skin? Those are all the areas on my face that were injected with the Rejuran Healer. The areas that the doctor injects is different for everyone since everyone is unique. Mine was done mainly on the cheek areas because my large pores are very visible there.



Immediately after the injections were done, the therapist put on a soothing mask for me. The mask is called the Rgnerin Mask and it is a modeling  Linmask that contains Linseed and aloe vera extract. Linseed provides oil and mucilage with soothing and softening effect. Aloe vera extract can stimulate the generation of new cells, helps to soothe and tone the skin, and it also has an anti-irritant effect on the skin.

HOW DO I FEEL AFTER THE MASK?

I feel that my skin is more calm and less red.




WHAT ARE THE RESULTS TO EXPECT FROM REJURAN?

After 1 month of treatment, I feel that my skin looks more radiant and hydrated. Post-treatment, you can expect progressive improvements with the final results peaking between 4 to 6 weeks.


AFTER 4-6 WEEKS

-Increased skin elasticity 
- Improvement in the overall appearance of the eyes and face
-  pores are getting smaller

- Smoother skin texture
- Clearer complexion
- Better oil balance and reduced sebum production

- Improved overall skin condition
- Skin looks noticeably healthier, brighter, and firmer


REJURAN HEALER TREATMENT IS SUITABLE FOR PEOPLE WHO WANT:
✓ Long-lasting skin renewal and healing
✓Restore the skin’s balance of oil and moisture
✓ Shrink their pores and improve the skin's texture
✓ Treat wrinkles around eyes area, smile lines and forehead, and want to improve aged skin
✓ Have natural alternative to treat wrinkles around the eyes/mouth/forehead wrinkles



HOW SOON CAN RESULTS BE SEEN?

Depending on the skin condition and type, you can see the effects after 1-3 treatments. For best results, doctor recommends 3 sessions in 3 weeks.



WILL THERE BE ANY DOWNTIME?

There is minimal to no downtime for the Rejuran Healer treatment.

For me, I only have some redness and slight swelling at the treated area and it subsided within 24 hours. I can still continue to go back to work after the treatment.

Don't skip your breakfast! This is simply because a good breakfast sets the body and mind right and provides the energy you need to get things done at work or in school. It does not have to be time-consuming because all you need is just the right ingredients and it makes a world of difference. It comes as no surprise that milk is a staple at breakfast all over the world as it is a convenient and delicious way to reap the benefits of this creamy nutrient-rich beverage to nourish the body. Milk provides calcium and protein for growth and strong bones.

Singaporean are crazy about local food, so much so that it is a MUST HAVE in every hotel buffet.

The Orchard Cafe has been an icon of Orchard Hotel Singapore for three decades, and has had a loyal following of fans who always return for their favourite local fare.

As part of Orchard Hotel Singapore’s complete enhancement programme, The Orchard Cafe was closed for a complete refurbishment and will be reopening on 19 Nov 2018. Of course, the buffet spread has been given an upgrade too and we’re expecting lots of tasty creations by Executive Chef Bryce Li and his capable team.


In fact, while The Orchard Cafe was undergoing refurbishment, Chef Bryce took the chance to try the local fare all over Singapore's hawker centres. I was honored to be able to join him on his visit to Newton Food Centre to check out two local favorite dishes which is the BBQ Chicken wings and the BBQ Sambal Stingray for inspiration on what to create at The Orchard Café.


Below are the food (BBQ Chicken Wings and Sambal Stingray) from different stalls which we tried on that day. 




During the food hunt, Chef Bryce shared with us what he like about the dishes from the different stalls he had tried and he shared that he was going to  use all this inspiration for his upcoming dishes at The Orchard Cafe.

I'm sure you can't wait to try Chef Bryce's enhanced version of the BBQ Grilled dishes and tasty, spicy sambals too!

When the restaurant reopens on Monday, 19 Nov, you can look forward to a refreshed buffet experience called “A SIGNATURE CLASS BUFFET” featuring:


  1. Golden favourites – Braised Pork Belly Bee Hoon in Opah Leaf Pocket, Asian Noodles like Laksa, Thai Boat Noodles, Prawn Mee, Roast Meats selection from award-winning Hua Ting restaurant and Charcoal Grilled Satay
  2. Heritage-Inspired Local Creations – Grilled Barramundi in Kampong Sauce, Lobster Roti John, Wok-Fried Slipper Lobster in Salted Egg Yolk, Tau Kwa Pau with Tea-Smoked Duck, Chendol with Gula Melaka Ice
  3. Chef-curated cuisines from around the world such as: Roast Beef and Lamb, House-smoked Salmon, Crispy-Skin Roasted Pork Knuckle

So make a date with your best makan buddies to savour delicious taste memories of The Orchard Cafe’s heritage-inspired local dishes, as well as many new chef-curated cuisines from around the world!
