REJUVENATE

Dr Shirley Yuliana Kwee is our medical director — MBChB from Glasgow, GDFM from NUS Singapore, and certified by the American Board of Anti-Aging and Regenerative Medicine. Depending on what your program involves you may also see Dr Muhammad Nadim for regenerative work, or Dr Andrew Uidjaja, who has practised in Bali since 2008. You'll know who you're seeing before you arrive, not on the day.

A licensed medical clinic. Our licence is registered as Klinik Utama, number 10092501114890005. The distinction matters more than it sounds: it governs who is legally allowed to perform procedures, how products are sourced and stored, and what happens if something goes wrong.

The diagnostics are fairly standard — you need much the same baseline picture whatever your goals are. What changes is everything after that. Two people booking the same duration can leave with very different protocols. Where we don't personalise is safety: if your bloodwork rules something out, it's out, regardless of what you arrived hoping for.

No. The pre-arrival call exists to map your goals and order anything that needs lead time. A lot gets decided on day one, once your doctor has your results in front of them, and protocols get adjusted mid-program more often than not.

Genuinely free, and there's no obligation to book afterwards. We'd rather establish on a video call that we're not the right fit than have you fly here to find out.

Less than most people expect. A single day runs roughly 09:00 to 17:00 with proper breaks. Longer programs are paced deliberately — usually a morning or an afternoon rather than a full day, so you still get Bali. Tell us what else is in your itinerary and we'll build around it.

Your results explained in person, rather than emailed as a PDF you can't interpret. A written protocol covering nutrition, movement, supplementation and any ongoing therapy. And a follow-up consultation three to six months out.

Yes, and plenty of couples do. Each person gets their own assessment and their own protocol — we don't run joint programs, because the entire point is that it's built around one person's results. Scheduling can be arranged so you're not waiting around for each other.

Tell us as early as you can and we'll move things. Some diagnostics are ordered in advance, so very late changes can carry a cost — but we'll say so plainly rather than surprise you with it.

Payment is direct, by card or transfer, in Indonesian rupiah. We don't bill insurers, though we'll provide documentation if you want to claim afterwards. Whether it's covered depends entirely on your policy, and most travel and health policies don't cover elective preventive medicine.

Come back in and we'll look at what happened. We won't promise outcomes in advance, because nobody honestly can, and a clinic that does should worry you. What we do commit to is measuring where you started, so the conversation afterwards is about data rather than impressions.

You should be cautious anywhere, and Bali has both excellent clinics and places you'd want to avoid. Reasonable questions to ask us or anyone else: Is the clinic licensed? Who performs the procedure? Where do the products come from? And can you see the batch details? We're happy to answer all four.

SŌMA is the first specialist longevity and anti-ageing clinic in Bali, funded by a UK- and Singapore-trained Medical Director, Dr Shirley Yuliana Kwee, with over 20+ years of clinical experience at top Asian clinics, implementing Singaporean standards of medical care. Our physicians are internationally trained in longevity, anti-ageing, and regenerative medicine and are members of the American Board of Anti-Aging and Regenerative Medicine.

That's the thing we work hardest to avoid. Our approach is conservative and layered, we'd rather you come back for a small adjustment than overshoot. Most clients report that people say they look great rather than asking what they've had done.

For skin quality and brightness, yes. For anything that relies on collagen building, you'll see the beginning of it here and the rest over the following weeks, that's simply how the biology works, and no clinic can compress it. Your take-home plan covers what happens after you leave.

Mostly, with some timing. Anything involving resurfacing or injectables means keeping out of direct sun for a period, and we'll tell you exactly how long for what you've had. Plan treatments for the start of your trip rather than the day before a boat day.

Because people notice all three, and because the underlying drivers overlap. Iron, thyroid and hormonal markers show up in skin quality and hair density alike. Treating the face while ignoring a thyroid issue makes little sense.

Ask us the questions you wish you'd asked before. Who is injecting, what are their qualifications, what product is being used, where was it bought, can I see the box, can I see examples of before and after photos. If any clinic hesitates on those, that tells you something.
