Obesity in Singapore: The Social and Psychological Impact
In Singapore, obesity is defined by a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 27.5 or higher, while a BMI of between 23 to 27.4 is considered overweight.
According to the National Population Health Survey 2022, among residents
aged 18 to 74 years, there has been a gradual increase in obesity prevalence from 2010 to 2022,
rising from 10.5% to 11.6%.
Beyond physical health risks, obesity can significantly impact
mental and emotional well-being. Individuals struggling with obesity may experience social
stigma, discrimination, and negative self-perception, which can affect their social relationships,
work productivity, and overall quality of life.

How Does Our Weight Loss Programme Work?
Many weight loss programmes promise quick results but may not be sustainable. At Medical Aesthetics, we provide a personalised approach under the close supervision of Dr. Robert Ong. Starting with a detailed consultation to assess your medical history, lifestyle, and goals, we customise a plan that may include dietary adjustments, exercise guidance, and, if necessary, prescription medications like weight loss pills (slimming pills) or injections. Our aim is to help you achieve weight loss safely and sustainably. With regular follow-ups, we monitor your progress, make necessary adjustments, and provide ongoing support and motivation throughout your journey.
Weight Loss Medications
Weight loss medication comes in various forms, including pills and injections, and are prescribed based on individual health needs. They are used under medical supervision to ensure safety and effectiveness.
Weight Loss Pills Singapore
Weight loss pills are oral medications that typically act as hunger suppressants, reducing cravings, and boosting metabolism. Some pills may prevent fat absorption to lower calorie intake. They are convenient, suitable for those who prefer an oral option, and often recommended for individuals who need support in sticking to dietary plans or enhancing their metabolic rate.
Weight Loss Injections (GLP-1)
GLP-1 (Glucagon-Like Peptide-1) receptor agonist injections offer a different approach by mimicking hormones that regulate appetite and glucose metabolism. Administered by healthcare professionals, they may be ideal for individuals who have not found success with oral medications or require a more potent appetite suppressant. Regular injections, along with lifestyle modifications, can be effective for those who require medical assistance for more significant weight loss.
