[Vogue Singapore] Treatments to try: try a non-invasive sculpting facial at IDS Clinic, and more
Technology in the beauty sphere has evolved in spades—and it’s one we don’t seem to mind. Historically, beauty brands have had to operate and adapt to specific definitions of skin types, textures, and tones, undoubtedly leaving numerous folks out in the dust. Many took a trial-and-error approach to figure out what complemented their skin the best. However, with the integration of technologies like Augmented Reality (AR), brands and aesthetic clinics have been able to provide more intelligent approaches and specialised experiences for their customers. In the same vein, these technological advancements have also widened the net of treatments one can opt for, each one suited to one’s preferences and needs. With the beauty and aesthetics scene rapidly developing every day, 2026 beckons a wealth of experiences; think high-impact devices for improved scalp health; increasingly less invasive tweakments for lifting and skin rejuvenation; and recovery spaces in response to the zeitgeist’s marked interest in wellness.
To sieve out the most exciting of the lot, Vogue Singapore’s team ventures out into the beauty landscape, putting each of these procedures and addresses to the test.
As far as the aesthetics space is concerned, a non-invasive skin tightening and sculpting treatment is par for the course with IDS Clinic’s Onda Pro Face.
Below, peruse the best beauty treatments and more to try in Singapore, as recommended by Vogue Singapore’s beauty desk.
Onda Pro Face, $392.40 for 60 minutes at IDS Clinic
Who it’s catered for: Individuals looking to further define their facial contours, and/or are dealing with skin sagging.
Vogue’s review: The sheer number of positive reviews surrounding Onda meant that I entered the treatment room with high hopes. Regarded as the gold standard for skin tightening and lifting, IDS Clinic takes it a step further with Onda Pro Face, which is equipped with newfangled technology designed to sculpt even the most delicate areas, such as the jawline and chin. I’m also told that the Onda Pro Face procedure utilises upgraded Precision-GigaWave (PGW) technology to facilitate more selective, deeper energy delivery into fat cells, which allows for more noticeable results. More good things, all in all.
The treatment began with a thorough double cleanse. My therapist was cognisant of the fact that I was sensitive to heat, and thus I was instructed to inform her whenever the pressure and temperature got too much. Despite my considerably low tolerance for discomfort, I found that the entire process was very much manageable; imagine a warm wand gliding over your face, pushing and kneading at it in soothing motions to boost collagen production as well as firm lax areas. A mere hour later, I emerged with a noticeably smaller visage, though I am told that I would observe the best results in three weeks. There’s no need to set aside time to recover from its effects either—while it’s best not to apply make-up right away, you can pretty much go about your day post-Onda. In short? Its non-invasive nature paired with immediate, discernible results means you can add it to your rotation of maintenance procedures with no fuss or need for deliberation.
