The Symposium

The CLASSYS APAC Symposium is an annual gathering of dermatologists, plastic surgeons and aesthetic physicians from the region to share clinical insights and device innovations.

The 7th edition, held in Bangkok under the theme "Expanding Possibilities in Medical Aesthetics," drew KOLs from Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Australia — with a programme spanning device lectures, live demonstrations, and an in-depth panel discussion.

Volnewmer — The Non-Surgical VF Lift

Dr Sin Yong's contribution focused on CLASSYS's Volnewmer platform and its application in the Vertical Facelift (VF Lift) — a non-surgical protocol designed to address three distinct concerns simultaneously:

The Three Aims of the VF Lift

Laxity — targeting SMAS laxity and fascial descent that causes jowling, midface drop, and loss of jawline definition.
Fullness — addressing puffiness and excess volume in the lower face and submandibular zone.
Volume — directed at hollows in the temple, cheek and periorbital zones.

• Dr Bey-Leei Ling — Malaysia
• Dr Nititam Ratkasikon — Thailand

Discussion topics ranged from patient selection criteria for non-surgical lifting procedures, combination protocols using HIFU and HIFEM technologies, and the expectations of Asian patients considering non-surgical treatment.

The Award Ceremony

At the close of the evening, CLASSYS honoured its regional Key Opinion Leaders with formal awards on the main stage. Dr Sin Yong received his award — presented by a senior CLASSYS representative — in recognition of his clinical contributions and international advocacy for CLASSYS technologies across the Asia-Pacific region.

CLASSYS — A Long-Standing Partnership

Dr Sin Yong has been a CLASSYS International Key Opinion Leader for several years, and the technologies he presented at the symposium — including Volnewmer — are part of his clinical toolkit in Singapore. His work with CLASSYS platforms forms a core part of his non-surgical lifting and body contouring protocols.

Being invited to speak and participate as a panelist at the CLASSYS APAC Symposium reflects the trust CLASSYS places in Dr Sin Yong's clinical outcomes, patient communication approach, and contribution to advancing aesthetic medicine education across the region.
