AURA Clinic Singapore was featured in CNA Lifestyle’s “Rethinking What Self-Care Looks Like”, exploring how a more considered and personalised approach to aesthetic care can form part of the evolving conversation around self-care.
Self-care can mean different things to different people.
For some, it may involve taking time to support their mental and emotional well-being. For others, it could mean enjoying a nourishing meal, taking time to recharge or making considered choices about how they look and feel.
In its September 2026 feature, CNA Lifestyle explored this broader perspective on self-care through a selection of wellness, aesthetic and lifestyle experiences at Palais Renaissance in Singapore.
Among the businesses featured was AURA Clinic, where aesthetic care is approached through personalised assessment and treatment planning.
For Dr. Karen Soh, Founder and Medical Director of AURA Clinic Singapore, aesthetic care is not about following every new trend or trying to create dramatic change.
Instead, her approach begins with understanding the individual.
Every patient has different facial characteristics, skin conditions, ageing patterns, concerns and expectations. These differences can influence which treatment options may be appropriate and whether treatment is necessary at all.
This is why treatment planning at AURA Clinic begins with consultation and assessment rather than a predetermined procedure.
The CNA Lifestyle feature highlights this personalised philosophy, noting Dr Karen’s approach to developing treatment plans around the individual rather than adopting a one-size-fits-all approach.
Another idea highlighted in the CNA Lifestyle feature is Dr Karen’s perspective on ageing well.
For Dr Karen, aesthetic medicine does not necessarily need to be about looking noticeably different or trying to reverse every visible sign of ageing.
Instead, the focus can be on helping patients look refreshed, balanced and recognisably themselves.
With more than 20 years of medical experience, Dr Karen’s approach considers facial structure, skin condition and individual ageing concerns when discussing aesthetic treatment options. CNA Lifestyle similarly describes her philosophy as centred on natural-looking results and helping patients age with confidence while remaining recognisably themselves.
This philosophy also forms part of AURA Clinic’s broader approach to personalised aesthetic medicine, where treatment decisions are guided by the patient rather than by what happens to be trending.
Discover Dr. Karen Soh’s approach to personalised, natural-looking aesthetic medicine and why she believes treatment decisions should begin with understanding the individual.
