Dr Hooi keeps abreast of current developments in Cosmetic Medicine and has special interests in cosmetic injectables, bio-stimulator treatments, non-surgical skin rejuvenation and hair restoration. With his long experience in the use of point of care ultrasound in emergency medicine, he has brought his experience over to cosmetic medicine and the use of ultrasound to improve injection safety and complication management.
