[Beauty Review] MesoLipo Fat Melting Injection @ Premier Clinic

Besides skin concerns, I bet many ladies out there have this same problem as me, flabby arms. I personally love wearing singlets and sleeveless dresses very much but I got really annoyed when I look at my flabby arms and so lost my confidence. I've slim down a lot since primary school but sadly I think my arms still remain the same. I've tried many ways of exercising to get rid of it but none of them work so I guess the only way is to seek for consultation for aesthetic treatment. 


Located strategically in Taman Tun Dr Ismail, Kuala Lumpur, Premier Clinic provides a comprehensive range of non-surgical aesthetic procedures and advanced laser treatments. They import the latest machines to provide their patients with the most cutting edge technology available on the market.



I love their interior designs are very classy-looking yet feeling cozy especially when they have excellent customer services and always greet you with big wide smile. :)


As usual, I was lead into the waiting room and given a registration form to fill in my details upon arrival. TV, brochures, magazines, a selection of CDs and DVDs, and drinking water are all provided to kill your boredom while waiting. After a while, I was brought in for consultation with Dr. Elaine. I first tell her that my major concern currently is my flabby arms which I can never get rid of no matter how hard I exercise, then she recommended me a few treatments which is suitable for me and explained to me how it works respectively.

She then advised me to do MesoLipo Fat Melting Injection which uses mesotherapy techniques specifically target localised fat and cellulite deposits. It is less-invasive alternative to liposuction and slowly dissolves the deposits with injections of fat-dissolving substances. The body will naturally eliminate the residue over the next 3 to 4 weeks. The injections consist of a natural soy bean lecithin and enzymes which are highly effective in dissolving small, stubborn fat deposits that resist diet and exercise.


Dr. Elaine will first examine which part of my arms contain the most fats, apply the ice pack on it for numbing effect, then only she will start injection on targeted areas. Meanwhile, her assistant will place a massager on my arms to distract me so that I feel less pain.


Before we proceed with the treatment, I was told that there might be some bruises and a rash of small red dots (needle holes from injection) formed on my arms afterwards and usually it will take about 1 or 2 weeks to subside. So far I've done two sessions of MesoLipo Fat Melting Injection; as you can see in the picture above, there's only a few small red dots on my arms during my first visit; however during my second visit, there's even more red dots and about 5 to 6 50 cent-sized blue-black bruises formed immediately.

I was given a post treatment cream to apply after shower to avoid infections due to injections and recovery. They also prepared a list of instructions of which you can and cannot do after MesoLipo Fat Melting Injections. You may feel soreness and discomfort on your first day, however you're allowed to do exercise even on the day of treatment if you feel comfortable.

As I've mentioned, I've done two sessions of MesoLipo Fat Melting Injections so far but sadly I think it doesn't work on me; there's not much differences on my arms before and after treatment. I personally think that it varies according to people's body condition as my friend's arms got 2 inch slimmer because of this treatment, hence I think you may give it a try if you're in the same situation as me, who has tried many ways of exercising but can never get rid of the flabby arms. Note that MesoLipo Fat Melting Injections is a fat loss (on targeted area) and not a weight loss procedure, therefore your weight will not reduce from this treatment. Besides arms, this treatment can be done on various parts of your body of which you wish to lose fats (eg. waist, thigh).

I guess many of you must have think that injection is very scary and can be very dangerous if something goes wrong. To be honest, I hesitated when Dr. Elaine first suggests me to do this treatment. I hate injections very much (those who are close to me should know) and I always cry during injections back in high school. However, you know girls would do anything to become prettier and slimmer and I've actually done research on Premier Clinic thoroughly beforehand and I saw many positive feedback from their customers, so I've decided to give it a try. I was well taken care of during the treatment that I only feel minimal pain. The feeling is very much different from all the injections I had last time. Dr. Elaine will make sure that I feel comfortable and ask me whether I feel pain and is it tolerable, from time to time.

MesoLipo Fat Melting Injection costs RM450 per session. However, in my opinion, just one session doesn't give you much differences and this treatment requires several sessions for better results unless you exercise and maintain it on your own. Currently Premier Clinic offers a 10+3 package for only RM4,500 but of course you will need to consult the professionals beforehand to see whether this treatment is suitable for you.

[Beauty Review] 4 in 1 Slimming Program @ esmé Clinic


Shorts is a must-have item especially in this country which has Summer all year round. I love wearing shorts but the shape of my thigh and fats concern me very much. I gotta say I'm so lucky that I have thigh gap but I don't have a pair of slim and slender legs. I've tried many ways of exercising but it just doesn't get rid of the fats especially on my inner thigh so I've decided to try out the slimming program offered by esmé Clinic.

esmé Clinic is an aesthetic clinic providing various treatments, from non-invasive to minimally invasive procedures. They have extensive experience in cosmetic dermatological procedures and they always strive to enhance one's appearance and treat the aging phenomenon so that people can look as good and as young as they feel.



esmé Clinic just feels like my second home because their staffs are all very friendly and helpful, together with the comfortable and cozy environment.

As usual, I was required to fill up a registration form upon arrival and then brought into the consultation room. My beauty consultant is Miss Sylvia and she's very kind to explain to me my skin condition and analyse what type of treatment is suitable for me concurrently. If you do follow and read my blog, you should know that my main concern is always about my acne and acne scars. However, I just did laser treatment the other day so I just let my skin rest and move on to my second major concern, slimming!

I may look slim due to my height but I'm fat if you look carefully and measure it. I may have a pair of long legs but not a pair of slim and slender legs. You know angle does magic! :P So after consulting Miss Sylvia, she said that the shape of my thigh from the back view looks quite okay while the main problem here is my inner thigh, which can actually be tighten and improved. I just listen to her advice and recommendations because she is experts and has extensive experience in this field.


Without further ado, I was brought into the treatment room and was required to change into a long skirt, which will be easier for them when doing treatment.


This is the device which she will be using, Robolex Slimming Machine, mainly to reduce fatty tissue on targeted area (either on thigh, arm or tummy). As the name suggests, it combines 4 technologies in 1 platform:
  • Cavitations: Burst fat
  • RF: Melt adipose fat
  • Laser: Drainage fat and flush away cellulite
  • Vacuum: Firming


First, Miss Sylvia applies a special slimming cream on my thigh while doing fat pinching massage to achieve better results. Then she uses the ultrasound cavitation to destruct fat cells on my thigh, followed by multi radio frequency to dissolve destroyed fat cells and cellulite reduction by low level laser. You may experience some high frequency sound during step 2 but Miss Sylvia will first set it at lower level and see if you can bear with it. On last step, she uses the vacuum to drain the dissolved fat cells rapidly from the body to outside by the lymph drainage and blood circulation and maintain the elasticity on my thigh.



I don't really believe in measurements even though Miss Sylvia told me that my thigh has been reduced by 0.5cm and 1cm respectively. I only believe in what I see and what I feel. In fact, from what I see in the picture above and also when I stand in front of a mirror, my inner thigh has been tighten up and you can see more "space" in between. I was also surprised to see a huge difference on the outer part (like literally!). While when I touch it, it's totally firmed up and no more squeezable fats on my thigh when I standing up. (Y)!


I was totally amazed by this 4 in 1 slimming program because I can see instant results in just 1 treatment! Picture doesn't show much difference, but I can see and feel it on my own. No doubt it may go back to the original condition if you do not maintain it, but eating and sitting down all the while. If you're lazy to exercise, you may also go back to esmé Clinic for maintenance and achieve better results. It's a non-invasive treatment and no risk by liposuction, so it's very safe.

This 4 in 1 slimming program costs RM340 per session but currently they are having first trial promotion for only RM68 (you can either walk-in or purchase the first trial deal through MilkADeal.com).

Now here's another good news for my readers. If you've tried out their first trial and are interested to purchase more sessions, you may quote my name "Yuh Jiun" or show this blog post to them to get fast start program for RM388 for 3 session (up to 60% discount!). What a great deal, isn't it? I'm so tempted to get for myself one too :P Act fast because it's only valid to first 20 readers!

[Beauty Review] eTwo Sublative Resurfacing @ Renee Clinic

Every girls' dream is to walk out confidently with their bare face and I'm so proud to say now I can do that too! I used to have flawless skin but my face started to break out when I was Form 5 and silly me doesn't know how to take care at all. I don't use cleanser, mask or any serum to cure my pimples yet I like to pop my pimples with hands and sleep late every night due to SPM, which explains my awful acne and acne scars right now. I was so regret why I didn't take good care of my skin back then but complaining doesn't help. I've tried various products but it doesn't cure my acne and acne scars, so I've decided to seek for consultation from aesthetic clinic.


I was introduced to Renee Clinic, an aesthetic clinic situated in the heart of KL, providing a wide range of confidential, professional and personalized aesthetic services and laser treatments, from non-invasive to minimally invasive procedures.



Despite their very clinical looking glass door, they have such comfortable and cozy area on the inside.


Renee Clinic is established based on the core belief that "Everyone deserves to be beautiful", led by two experienced doctors who are passionate about aesthetics, Dr. Cheok Jia Rhong and Dr. Renee Law. These certificates are the proof of their continuance of participation in local and international aesthetic conferences to keep themselves up-to-date in the always-changing field of aesthetic medicine and achievements.

Upon arrival, I was given a registration form to fill in my details, concerns, medical backgrounds and etc. Then I was brought in for consultation with Dr. Cheok.

Basically he will first ask what's my major concern, then he will analyse my skin condition and recommend which treatment is suitable for me. For my case, I've always wanted to get rid of my acne and acne scars so he gave me two options, Carbon Peel and eTwo Sublative Resurfacing. He then suggested me to do eTwo Sublative Resurfacing, which will be more effective but the process will be more pain and the redness and swelling will be last for few days.

eTwo Sublative is a treatment which stimulates new collagen growth in the deep dermis and is used to treat textural irregularities, wrinkles, acne scars and sun spots. It doesn't involve lasers, but they can totally resurface the skin, stimulating the same effects of various similar laser treatments. No doubt, I chose to do eTwo Sublative because it's more effective and the effect is permanent and improves with every session (however, the result may deteriorate if skin condition is not maintained properly), unlike Carbon Peel, which requires maintenance every 3-6 months.

Before we move to the treatment room, I was required to sign a consent agreement, which will explain what's eTwo Sublative, stating all the possible effects and after care instructions.




They will first help me to apply numbing cream for about 20 minutes. According to Dr. Cheok, the pain is bearable but he's afraid that I might can't take it since it's my first time doing aesthetic treatment.

Of course you're allowed to move around freely after applying numbing cream and there's a private area prepared for patients too. TV, magazines, biscuits and even coffee are provided for you to kill the time.


After 20 minutes, Dr. Cheok then come in and start to do the eTwo Sublative treatment. He will first tested it on my face carefully and ask me whether is it very pain or bearable. It feels like an ant bite in the first place, then when he place it on the same spot for second time, it is much more painful, perhaps about level 8 out of 10. I got pretty nervous after that but Dr. Cheok keep comfort me, asking me to relax and the whole process done within 2-3 minutes.

Then his assistant uses the same machine for after care to calm my skin and reduce redness. She also help me to apply recovery cream and sunblock, which will be my only skin care routine for the next few days until the redness subsides.


Taken right after the treatment. Significant redness and swelling on my face, which is also the only downside of eTwo Sublative.

*click in for larger image*

As I've mentioned, significant redness and swelling on my face right after I did the treatment as if I got sunburn. You may experience some pain even after the treatment but no worries, it will be gone in a while. Remember to clear all your appointments for the first two days as you cannot expose to sun and apply make up yet. If you apply make up immediately after, you may risk infecting the raw wounds on which they did the treatment on. In these two days, I only apply post laser cream and sunblock after I've washed my face and no toner, moisturizer etc.

On day 3, redness and swelling subsides and that's when I can go back to my usual skincare routine and no need to apply post laser cream anymore. Mild scabbing started to form and remember do not peel it as it will fall off automatically when you wash your face. On day 5, there's only a little scabbing remaining on my face and it's recovering bit by bit.

PS// I've labelled my picture wrongly. It should be day 1, day 3 and day 5 respectively.


I was monitoring the recovery of my skin from redness and scabbing these few days and tends to forget the 'before' look of my skin condition, so I was quite disappointed when I see there are still some acne scars on my face after recovered. However, when I compare the 'before' and 'after' picture side by side, I can see huge improvement on my skin condition and I can feel it myself too. As you can see, my face is much more clearer especially on my chin and lighten my acne scars. It does reduce my laugh lines and firm up my skin. Totally loving my skin condition now even though it's not perfect yet! Even my friends say my skin looks smoother and glowing too :P

Since it's my first time doing aesthetic treatment, I was pretty scare and worry about the outcome and when will the redness and swelling subsides. In fact, you just need to treat it as normal, following the dos and don'ts stated by doctor and you can have flawless skin in a week!

eTwo Sublative Resurfacing costs RM1,250 per session. If you have serious acne problems, I may suggest you to take up their buy 3 free 1 package but of course you will need to consult the professionals beforehand.

Photo opportunity with Dr. Renee and Dr. Cheok. :)

I will definitely recommend Renee Clinic due to their excellent customer service and professionalism. All their staffs are very friendly yet serious when come to work. Dr. Cheok also gave me a lot of advice on how to take care of my skin, what type of product should I use etc. (Y) If you have any skin concerns, you may contact Renee Clinic at 603 4040 0778 and make an appointment with them for consultation. Cheers to flawless skin! :)

[Beauty Review] Restyle by A Cut Above, Sunway Pyramid


Good morning peeps! June is truly a blessed month because I've finished my exam & we have 3 weeks break after that (the longest break I've had!), traveled to Macau with boyfriend, had a hair makeover by professional stylist and many more blogging opportunities! So today I'm going to blog about my hairdo makeover at Restyle by A Cut Above, Sunway Pyramid two weeks ago.

Restyle is actually a sub-line of A Cut Above group and their services are more affordable, which mostly targeted on students or those who are from a moderate family. Restyle offers various packages while A Cut Above offers a la carte services only. Nonetheless, you can be assured of enjoying only quality services at Restyle as their stylists are trained and supervised by A Cut Above group.


Simple yet cosy environment here and they can accommodate up to 18 people.


This branch at Sunway Pyramid is using Loreal Paris products only, from shampoo, treatment and even hair dyes.

The hair wash area.

While waiting patiently for my hairstylist. Look at my black roots T_T

Magazines and tea are prepared for pastime.


It's my second time dying my hair so I thought of going for brighter colours before I start working next year. Hence I told my hairstylist I prefer pink brown or purple colour without bleaching but he said it's very hard to achieve fashion colours without bleaching so he mix and match some purple brown, magenta, pink and few more to achieve my desired outcome.



I gotta say they all are very professional, from the way they applied the hair dye, put a cap on my ears to avoid irritation and I don't feel itchy at all unlike the previous salon that I went to.


Tadah! I was so excited to see that popping red colour after hair wash yet worried the colour might not suit me. But guess what, I just fell in love with my hair afterwards :3


Say hello to my hairstylist, Edmund Hee. He's very kind to offer me to do treatment and style my hair with big wavy curls.


With my hairstylist, Edmund Hee. Thank you so much for this wonderful makeover! :D

What a huge transformation of before and after, isn't it? No more frizzy hair and split ends yay!



The outcome after sitting there for 5 hours, how do you think? :P I'm absolutely loving it and the copper red colour makes me look fairer teehee.

Overall I had a pleasant experience here and all the staffs are very friendly. Remember to look for Edmund Hee as he's a very friendly and easy-going person and he will try his best to achieve your desired outcome. He also gave me a lot of tips and advice me on how to take care of my hair. (Y) Not forgot to mention, I'm also surprised to see so many walk-in customers especially on a weekday so I would recommend you guys to book in advance to avoid disappointment. The package that I did will be RM405 including hair cut, colour and treatment (for my hair length). You can always check out their full price list here or visit their outlet for consultation.

Eyelash Extensions @ Pink Passion, Sunway Mas Commercial Center


"Sexy, dramatic and rich eyelashes, you can have it now by visiting Pink Passion!"

I've never notice the importance of makeup and I always do not understand why people couldn't live without makeup and what they mean by "naked face". After I did my first eyelash extension back in December last year, finally I've realized the power of makeup (Y). If you haven't tried eyelash extensions, you should do at least once in your life because they are real amazing. Located in the heart of the city, Pink Passion has been operating for 6-7 years and they do offer various services apart from eyelash extensions like body massage and facial.


As the name suggests, its interior designs are all in pink colour with dim light, gives me a very warm and romantic feeling.


Small corner to display articles and reviews from customers.



After registration, I was brought into a cozy room playing some jazz music. Before I start doing eyelash extensions, the beautician was explaining to me the types of extensions they offer and which one would suit me the best for daily life. I did Rich Lashes Extension which is suitable for those with fine, short and less lashes, where a bundle of lashes will be paste to our own lashes with some glue. I chose the 8mm and 10mm lashes to create a natural look as I seldom makeup.


First she has placed a surgical tape under my eyes to prevent the glue stain over my eyes and separate my upper and lower lashes, then put on the bundle lashes one by one carefully. The whole process takes about 45 minutes and I do not feel pain or itchy at all! So now let's see the before and after photo for comparable results. Say hello to my sexy and voluminous lashes ^_^

*front view*


*side view* 



Overall, I'm very satisfy with my rich lashes extensions and I'm loving it! For the first day, I feel like there's something blocking my eyesight and the beautician said it's normal that I will get used to it later. Then the second day, I've totally forgot that I have my eyelash extensions on and start rubbing my eyes, which explains that it's really natural and no, I did not feel any weight or itchy if you're wondering.

Having eyelash extensions is really convenient that I don't have to spend much time to apply eyeliner or mascara anymore when I go out. However, do bear in mind that you shouldn't rub your eyes, go to sauna and use cotton bud to remove makeup instead of cotton pads. Normally it can be last up to 4 weeks and more depending on how well you take care of your eyelashes and fyi, mine lasted for about 1 month. In my opinion, it's really a very good investment and worthwhile that I can have pretty eyelashes all the time. YAY 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


And here's a good news for you guys; Pink Passion is now offering 60% off for Rich Lashes Extension at RM88 instead of RM228 for my readers!!! Besides that, you will get free touch up services within 7 days from your eyelash extensions. Such a great deal, isn't it? You may print out the voucher, screenshot and show on your mobile devices or even just mention my name to enjoy 60% off! Remember to make an appointment in advance to avoid disappointment. Cheerios!
