The Doctor is In: Q&A with Dr. Goh

Ever wondered about the genius behind B+ Clinic's aesthetics wonders? In this installment of our ongoing Q&A series, we delve into the world of Dr. Goh, a leading aesthetician who combines a passion for science with the artistry of beauty.

What inspired you to pursue a career in aesthetics?

 

"My journey into the field of aesthetics was inspired by a profound interest in the science of medicine with the art of beauty. The ability to enhance a person’s appearance, boost their confidence, and improve their overall quality of life through non-invasive and minimally invasive procedures is immensely appealing. The rapid advancements in aesthetics, coupled with the opportunity to make a positive impact on patients’ lives, solidified my decision to specialise in this field. Additionally, the prospect of continuous learning and staying at the forefront of innovative treatments in dermatology and aesthetic medicine further fueled my passion."

How do you handle patient concerns or anxieties about treatments?

"Addressing patient concerns and anxieties is paramount in my practice. It forms the foundation of my work as an aesthetician. I prioritise ensuring that my patients feel heard and understood through open communication. This involves providing a comprehensive explanation of procedures, potential risks, and how to manage expected outcomes. I try my best to offer educational resources such as reading materials, videos, and before-and-after photos that are invaluable tools to help patients make informed decisions. I also tailor specific treatment plans to meet each individual’s needs, addressing their unique concerns. Furthermore, I encourage questions and provide reassurance to alleviate any fears about the chosen procedure. I advise them to maintain consistent follow-up, allowing me to monitor their progress, as the role of an aesthetician extends beyond the treatment room."

What are some common misconceptions about aesthetic treatments that you’d like to clear up?

"Aesthetic treatments have been unfairly stigmatised. One misconception is that these procedures deliver immediate results, but it often requires time to see the desired effects. This misunderstanding can lead to unrealistic expectations. Another misconception is that a single treatment works for everyone, which is not true. Every face is unique, so we always mandate a consultation before recommending treatments."



"The fear of looking "unnatural" or "overdone" also strikes fear to many, especially younger individuals who are looking into getting their first injectable treatment. However, modern techniques are designed to enhance your natural beauty rather than pursuing unrealistic beauty standards. Advances in aesthetic techniques and technology have made many procedures less painful with minimal downtime, contrary to popular belief. Moreover, post-procedure maintenance is essential for sustaining results, and understanding this helps in setting realistic expectations."

What’s the most rewarding part of your job?

"The most rewarding aspect of my job is witnessing the transformation in my patients, not just physically but emotionally. Observing their increased confidence and self-esteem after a successful treatment is incredibly fulfilling, not forgetting the gratitude expressed by patients and trust they place in me to guide their aesthetic journey. The opportunity of continually learning and honing my skills, whilst adopting new techniques is what makes this profession so gratifying."

What do you believe sets our clinic apart from others in the industry?

 

"Our clinic distinguishes itself through a persistent commitment to excellent service and cutting-edge treatments, prioritising our patients' needs and concerns. We invest in the latest treatments paired with comprehensive consultations to develop personalised plans ensuring optimal results and safety. We also provide guidance beyond sessions, believing that aftercare education is crucial for the best outcomes. With these standards at our core, we strive to be the trusted choice for aesthetic treatments and the home for anti-aging."
