Last fact-checked: 18 August 2020

On holiday in Malaysia and want to make the most of the lower cost of living here? Then consider a facial rejuvenation in Johor Bahru. 

Book with Medical Departures and look forward to seeing those lines and wrinkles fade away with a tailor-made plan that can include fillers, chemical peels and laser treatments.

Is a Facial Rejuvenation for Me?

Fine lines, deep wrinkles, blemishes, age spots, scars all make the face look older and the skin dull. Blotchy and pigmented skin can mar a smooth complexion. This is the time when you should consider modern facial rejuvenation techniques that are easy and non-invasive or minimally invasive, relatively safe and still give good results.

Even if you have taken the best possible care of your skin, sun exposure, the inevitable effects of time and the stresses of modern life eventually take a toll on the skin. While regular care always helps stave off these signs, you may need help at one time or another. There are many different facial rejuvenation techniques now available thanks to advances in technology and clinical techniques.

Why Consider Facial Rejuvenation in Johor Bahru?

If you want to get a number of cosmetic treatments done then the cost may not be financially viable. In Australia, such treatments can be quite expensive. Or if you are already planning a holiday in Johor Bahru and have been thinking about having work done, cosmetic treatments like this can be obtained for a fraction of the price. 

Johor Bahru is one of Malaysia’s fastest-growing cities and now welcomes more medical tourists than ever before. It caters well to international visitors with all the city facilities and amenities that visitors want, including great accommodation options, dining and entertainment. The city is also popular with golfers and offers a range of other outdoor activities, including paintballing and off-road motorsports. Johor is just a 30-minute drive over the causeway into Singapore. In fact, many Singaporeans cross over into Malaysia to save money on cosmetic and other medical treatments.

Why Shouldn’t I Book on My Own?

All cosmetic treatments can potentially have adverse effects when not performed carefully or under a certified doctor’s supervision. Whether you want Botox®, fillers, peels or any other treatment, you should know that all may have potentially serious side effects, so it's always worth ensuring that your clinic conforms to internationally-recognized health and safety protocols, as well as employing qualified and skilled staff.

How Long Do Facial Rejuvenation Procedures Take and What Is the Approximate Recovery Period?

Certain facial rejuvenation procedures and treatments can be carried out in just half-an-hour and are usually minimally invasive. As there are a number of treatments available to redress the problems you may have, it is important that you have an in-depth consultation with the doctor to decide what is right for you. 

You may want one or more treatments to treat your skin condition. Among the treatments available are:

• Dermal fillers – these can help you get rid of deep wrinkles and folds, enhance your lips, add volume to your cheeks and more. As there is a wide range of fillers available, your doctor should see your medical history and then decide on the right one.

• Botox – relaxes the muscles that cause the wrinkles, resulting in smooth skin.

• Chemical peel – used in different strengths, this technique peels off layers of the skin and the new skin that grows back is clearer and firmer.

• Laser peels and resurfacing – these use lasers instead of chemicals but work in a similar manner.

• Dermabrasion – another technique that ‘wounds’ the skin in different ways, rendering the new skin more youthful-looking.

Other treatments can be used, like photo rejuvenation, thermage, laser skin tightening, radiofrequency that use various devices to achieve positive results.

The majority of these treatments do not require any significant downtime, but you may need to take it easy for a day or so. If you have deep dermabrasion or deep chemical peels then you may require rest for up to a week.

What Is the Cost of Facial Rejuvenation?

As there is a great difference in the cost of the varied procedures, it is difficult to set a figure for the cost of facial rejuvenation, particularly if you have more than one. However, you can safely assume that if something costs AUD 1,000 in Australia, it will cost considerably less in Johor Bahru – between half and a third of the price.
