Dr. Tyngyuan Tan

Dr Tyngyuan Tan, known as Dr Tyng Tan, is the medical director of Dr Tyng Tan Aesthetics and Hair Clinic on Orchard Road, Singapore 12. She obtained her MBBS from the University of London in 2006 and a diploma in dermatology from Cardiff University in 2012 2. The clinic says she trained in anaesthesiology in Singapore before moving into medical aesthetics and hair restoration surgery 2. It says she has more than ten years of hair restoration experience in Singapore 3. The clinic also offers facial and body aesthetic treatments 1.

The clinic offers fully shaved, partially shaved and no-shave FUE, as well as FUT 3. It says FUE grafts are taken with a 0.8 to 1.0 mm punch under magnification, using Cole Instruments equipment 3. It says density, angle and distribution during implantation are controlled directly by Dr Tan 3. It says she does not take other patients on transplant days 3. For no-shave FUE, the team trims grafts one by one while the surrounding hair is left untouched 3. The clinic says young patients whose hair loss is moving fast are usually advised to try medication first 3.

The clinic says FUE costs SGD 6.00 to 10.80 per graft, including GST 3. It says totals usually run from SGD 6,000 to 20,000 or more, and most procedures need 1,500 to 3,500 grafts 3. A surgical fee of SGD 800 is included for no-shave FUE and charged on top for shaved and partly shaved FUE 3. The page does not say which per-graft rate applies to which technique 3.

An in-person consultation with Dr Tan is required to assess suitability 3. The clinic says all packages include eight follow-up reviews over 12 months, from day one to month twelve 3. It says the first hair wash is done at the clinic within 24 hours and scab removal at two weeks is free 3. It gives about three days of downtime for no-shave FUE and two to three weeks for fully shaved FUE 3.

The clinic says she completed an ISHRS graduate fellowship at an ISHRS-recognised training centre, which it does not name 3. It says she is one of a few doctors approved by the Singapore Medical Council to perform both FUE and FUT 2. It lists memberships of the ISHRS, the AAHRS, the A4M and the AAAM 2. She has co-written book chapters and ISHRS journal articles on hair transplantation in Asian patients 2. Registry records list her as an ISHRS Full Member at the clinic's Orchard Road address 4.
