The Plastic Surgery & Aesthetic Clinic

The Plastic Surgery & Aesthetic Clinic is the private practice of Dr Andrew Tay, located at the Pacific Healthcare Specialist Centre, #19-01, 290 Orchard Road, Paragon, Singapore 238859 — a prestigious address on Orchard Road housing specialist practitioners across multiple medical disciplines. The clinic is situated on the 19th floor of Paragon, with access to surgical facilities within the same building as well as admitting privileges at the major private hospitals in the area.

Dr Andrew Tay's philosophy is distinctly patient-centred, recognising that each patient has different aesthetic goals and ideals. The clinic's approach is to work collaboratively with each individual to understand and achieve those goals, rather than applying a standardised approach. This philosophy of personalised and individualised care guides every aspect of the practice, from initial consultation through surgical planning and post-operative recovery.

The clinic provides both aesthetic (cosmetic) plastic surgery and reconstructive plastic surgery. Aesthetic surgery shapes and moulds the face and body to improve appearance and enhance confidence, while reconstructive surgery addresses deformities arising from trauma, congenital birth defects, and medical conditions such as cancer. This dual capability reflects the breadth of training in plastic and reconstructive surgery that Dr Tay brings to his private practice.

A key advantage of the Paragon location is that the clinic is equipped with dedicated in-house laser rooms and procedure rooms for minor surgery, allowing a range of skin and minor surgical treatments to be delivered at the clinic itself. More significant surgical procedures are performed at the surgical facility within Paragon or at Mount Elizabeth Hospital and Gleneagles Hospital — both conveniently nearby.

The Plastic Surgery & Aesthetic Clinic offers a comprehensive range of cosmetic and reconstructive plastic surgery procedures, complemented by non-surgical facial rejuvenation and body sculpting treatments.

Aesthetic (Cosmetic) Facial Surgery includes Rhinoplasty (nose reshaping — augmentation, reduction, tip plasty), Blepharoplasty for upper and lower eyelids including Asian double eyelid surgery, Facelift and Neck Lift for facial rejuvenation, Brow Lift, Otoplasty, Chin and Jaw Augmentation or Reduction, and Fat Grafting to the face for volume restoration.

Breast Surgery covers Breast Augmentation with silicone gel implants, Breast Reduction (reduction mammoplasty), Breast Lift (mastopexy), Breast Asymmetry correction, and Gynaecomastia surgery (male breast reduction). Post-mastectomy Breast Reconstruction is provided as a reconstructive service.

Body Contouring includes Liposuction for targeted fat reduction, Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) for abdominal laxity, and Arm and Thigh Lift procedures.

Reconstructive Surgery covers post-trauma reconstruction, management of congenital deformities, scar revision, skin grafting, and flap reconstruction for complex wound coverage. The clinic's reconstructive capabilities are available for patients referred following cancer resection or injury.

Non-Surgical Rejuvenation services include laser skin treatments (delivered in the clinic's dedicated laser rooms), Botulinum Toxin injections for wrinkle and facial slimming treatment, Dermal Filler injections, and other non-invasive skin enhancement procedures.

The Plastic Surgery & Aesthetic Clinic at Paragon is a well-equipped specialist facility that distinguishes itself by having dedicated in-house laser rooms and minor procedure rooms within the clinic itself — allowing a range of treatments to be delivered on-site without requiring hospital admission.

The in-house laser rooms allow delivery of skin laser treatments including fractional laser for resurfacing and acne scar treatment, Q-switched Nd:YAG for pigmentation, pulsed dye laser for vascular conditions, and diode or Alexandrite laser for hair removal. Having laser rooms within the clinic enables efficient scheduling and more personalised treatment planning.

Minor surgical procedures — such as excision of skin lesions, mole removal, earlobe repair, and minor scar revision — can be performed in the clinic's procedure rooms under local anaesthesia, avoiding the need for hospital attendance for these straightforward procedures.

Major surgical procedures under general anaesthesia are performed at the surgical facility within Paragon Medical Centre or at the nearby Mount Elizabeth Hospital or Gleneagles Hospital, both of which are within a short distance and with which Dr Tay holds admitting and operating privileges. All surgical environments are accredited and equipped to the required standards for safe general anaesthetic surgery.

The Plastic Surgery & Aesthetic Clinic at Paragon Medical Centre is a well-positioned destination for international patients seeking aesthetic or reconstructive plastic surgery in Singapore. The Paragon address on Orchard Road is internationally known and easily accessible by patients from Indonesia, Malaysia, and across the Asia-Pacific region who choose Singapore for specialist medical care.

For international patients, initial consultations can be conducted in person. Patients from Indonesia and Malaysia in particular may find the clinic's Paragon location convenient, as it is situated near major Singapore hotels and transport links. The clinic communicates in English and Malay, with Malay being accessible to patients from both Malaysia and Indonesia.

Comprehensive written treatment plans with cost estimates are provided before any treatment commences, allowing international patients to make fully informed decisions about their care. For surgical procedures, international patients are advised on the minimum recommended Singapore stay (typically 7-14 days for facial procedures, up to 2-3 weeks for body surgery) before safe return travel.

Post-operative telemedicine follow-up is available for international patients after they return home, allowing wound monitoring and advice to be provided remotely. Itemised receipts are provided for insurance reimbursement or corporate medical claim purposes.

The Plastic Surgery & Aesthetic Clinic is operated by Dr Andrew Tay, a plastic surgeon registered on the Singapore Medical Council's Register of Specialists in Plastic Surgery. The SMC specialist register confirms that Dr Tay has completed the approved specialist training pathway in Plastic Surgery and meets the standards required for specialist practice in Singapore.

The clinic is licensed by the Ministry of Health Singapore under the Healthcare Institution Licensing framework for medical clinics, ensuring compliance with MOH standards for clinic governance, staffing, equipment, and infection prevention. In-house laser devices and medical aesthetic equipment comply with Health Sciences Authority (HSA) Singapore approval requirements.

Surgical procedures are performed at accredited facilities — the Paragon surgical centre and the JCI-accredited private hospitals Mount Elizabeth and Gleneagles. The combination of specialist registration, MOH-licensed clinic, and access to accredited surgical facilities ensures a comprehensive quality and safety framework for patient care.

Dr Tay adheres to the Singapore Medical Council's Ethical Code and Ethical Guidelines in all aspects of patient communication, informed consent, treatment planning, and advertising of medical and aesthetic services.
