Episode 224 hosts Dr Felix Li (Cosmetic Physician from Singapore)

This is the sixth chapter of our miniseries, 'The Beauty Of The World'. (Please also listen to episodes 102, 107, 109, 113 & 118 for our other episodes and regions of the world)

In these episodes we host globally-renowned key opinion leaders to discuss their own regions beauty standards, aesthetic trends and the injectable market in their part of the world. We'll aim to understand what people find attractive, what influences this and celebrate the similarities and amazing differences amongst peoples faces and skin tones.

Felix is a trainer for Allergan Aesthetics across the Asia-Pacific region. We explore the beauty ideals of Singapore and some of the other influencial Asian countries.

We discuss how injectors in Asia might approach their patients and how local culture affects what is seen as beautiful. We also discuss a fundamental question posed by our Beauty Of The World mini series - are we as injectors guilty of stereotyping and assuming what beauty ideals would be suitable for our patients?

We discuss:

• Defining of the description term 'Asian'
• Singaporean demographics and how this influences the patient mindset
• The main aesthetic differences between Asian & Caucasian patients
• What the term 'baby face' means
• Who influences Asian beauty ideals
• The Chinese market and influence
• Common treatment requests when using fillers including the midface, nose, forehead and lower face
• The implications of treating high risk areas frequently
• Asian toxin trends
• Lower facial slimming
• The reverence of good skin in Asian beauty standards
• Common injectable skin treatments including Rejuran
• Korea's unique beauty standards
