The material and information presented on this web site is intended to educate. For more updates on skincare visit my IG page @drdavinlim or 101.skin. Use of this web site is not meant to serve as a substitute for a real time consultation. If you do have a history of challenging skin conditions, please consult a medical dermatologist for management. I do not give advice online (apart from third party sites like IMCAS & Real self however these are for complex procedural cases).

Great skincare products can make a difference, but it can not cure all skin related problems.

Note that running this website is NOT my occupation, I am not involved in upkeep, nor the administrative runnings of this site. My role is to provide updates in the Blog section and educational material only, as well as guidance as to suitable products based clinically. I am not responsible for the physiological effects of skincare products on your skin. You enter this site as a consumer & as a patient. The exception is my personal prescription of skincare post procedure as I understand your skin, based upon a real time examination & associated procedures I have performed.
