The verdict in three sentences
For an aesthetic or cosmetic clinic in Singapore, a website from a local agency typically converts to 8 000 to 40 000+ USD in 2026, with Orchard Road and CBD-facing agencies at the upper end. Kolonell builds the public clinic site at a fixed 2 900, 4 900 or 8 900 USD, with native English copy, a project manager scheduling calls in Singapore hours and delivery in 3 to 4 weeks (Premium: usually 4 to 6 weeks). In this sector the price gap matters less than one thing: every page must fit Singapore's healthcare advertising rules, and your medical director signs off before launch.
What do Singapore agencies and freelancers charge for a clinic website?
Singapore agencies quote in SGD and often publish minimum project sizes on Clutch.co profiles or their own pricing pages. The prudent 2026 ballpark below is converted to USD from that kind of public information and from freelance platform listings. Healthcare projects tend to cost more because of review rounds and compliance care.
| Option | 2026 ballpark (USD) | Typical delay | Usually included | Watch out for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Full-service healthcare marketing agency | 15 000 to 40 000+ | 10 to 16 weeks | Strategy, custom design, CMS, ads setup | Bundled monthly marketing retainer |
| Mid-size Singapore web agency | 8 000 to 18 000 | 6 to 12 weeks | Design, CMS, booking widget setup | Copy and photography extra |
| Boutique studio or freelancer (Upwork listings) | 2 000 to 9 000 | 4 to 12 weeks | Build, sometimes design | Little knowledge of healthcare advertising rules |
| Kolonell Starter | 2 900 | 3 to 4 weeks | Essential clinic site, native English copy | Mandarin, Malay, Tamil quoted |
| Kolonell Growth | 4 900 | 3 to 4 weeks | Full treatment catalogue, doctor profiles, request forms | Custom booking back office quoted |
| Kolonell Premium | 8 900 | Usually 4 to 6 weeks | Richest scope, bilingual EN/FR | Patient portal quoted |
The three formulas and what they include are on our international website offer.
What does an aesthetic clinic site in Singapore need?
Aesthetic medicine in Singapore is a competitive, tightly regulated space. Patients compare clinics on a phone between meetings, often reading about the doctor before the treatment.
- Advertising rules first: healthcare advertising in Singapore is regulated by the Ministry of Health, under the Healthcare Services Act framework and its advertising rules, alongside the Singapore Medical Council's ethical code and MOH guidelines on aesthetic practice. Commonly cited restrictions cover patient testimonials, before-and-after imagery and claims of superiority. Check the current text with your medical director or counsel; Kolonell writes factual, sober copy and never claims results.
- Treatment pages that inform: what the procedure is, who performs it, recovery time in neutral terms, consultation process. No prices unless you choose to publish them, no promotional pressure.
- Doctor and team profiles: qualifications and registration as published by the clinic, languages spoken.
- Booking: an appointment request form, or an embed of the booking tool the clinic already uses. A custom booking back office or patient portal is a custom application, quoted on request.
- Personal data: the PDPA applies, supervised by the PDPC. Health information is sensitive, so forms collect the minimum and never ask for medical history on a public page. A clear privacy notice is essential.
- Languages: English is the working language; Mandarin, Malay and Tamil speak to different patient groups. Kolonell writes natively in English and French; other languages are supplied by the clinic or quoted separately.

What will the site cost over three years, and how do you compare quotes?
| 3-year line | Mid-range Singapore agency | Kolonell Growth | Kolonell Premium |
|---|---|---|---|
| Build | 14 000 USD (assumed mid-range) | 4 900 USD | 8 900 USD |
| Included support after launch | Often bundled into a retainer | 3 months | 6 months |
| Paid maintenance (assumption 300 USD/month) | 36 months: 10 800 USD | 33 months: 9 900 USD | 30 months: 9 000 USD |
| Mandarin version | Often in the agency quote | Supplied or quoted | Supplied or quoted |
| Patient portal or custom booking | Separate quote | Quoted on request | Quoted on request |
| Indicative 3-year total | about 24 800 USD | about 14 800 USD | about 17 900 USD |
Kolonell maintenance after the included support period is quoted, so the table applies the same 300 USD monthly assumption across columns. When you line quotes up, ask each provider: who owns the domain (Kolonell registers it in your name), whether all access is handed over, how many revision rounds your medical director gets, who checks the copy against advertising rules, and the payment schedule (Kolonell: 50 % at start, 50 % at delivery, by bank transfer or Wise). Red flags: guaranteed rankings, a mandatory ads retainer bundled with the build, or a portfolio full of before-and-after galleries.
Mini case study
Need a professional website?
Kolonell builds websites that attract clients, optimized for the Sénégalese market. Free quote in 2 minutes.
Illustrative example, fictional persona: Dr Tan opens a two-doctor aesthetic clinic near Orchard Road. A local agency proposes 16 000 USD equivalent plus a 400 USD monthly retainer, so 16 000 + 14 400 = 30 400 USD over three years. She compares Kolonell Growth at 4 900 USD with 3 months included and applies her own assumption of the same 400 USD per month for 33 months: 4 900 + 13 200 = 18 100 USD. She adds 1 500 USD for a Mandarin translation by a medical translator: 19 600 USD, about 10 800 USD less, which she can direct to a scoped quote for online booking.
Kolonell's two public references are real: TR Signing Group (trsigninggroup.com), a bilingual EN/FR notary and apostille site in New Jersey with quote requests, a booking calendar, live chat and a back office, and Orven Properties (orvenproperties.com), a trilingual FR/EN/AR off-plan real estate advisory site in Dubai.
FAQ
Can you work in Singapore hours?
Yes. Singapore is GMT+8 and the team is based in Senegal (GMT): a 4 pm call in Singapore is 8 am for the team. Your project manager books Google Meet calls at a time that suits you and sends a written weekly update.
Can the site show before-and-after photos and reviews?
Healthcare advertising rules in Singapore commonly restrict testimonials and before-and-after imagery, so the default is not to publish them. Your medical director decides after checking the current rules.
Do you write Mandarin, Malay or Tamil?
Kolonell writes natively in English and French. Other languages are supplied by the clinic or quoted separately; bilingual EN/FR starts at Premium, 8 900 USD.
Is online booking included?
An appointment request form or an embed of your existing booking tool fits the site build. A custom booking back office or patient portal is quoted on request, on top of 2 900, 4 900 or 8 900 USD.
How long until launch?
3 to 4 weeks for Starter and Growth, usually 4 to 6 weeks for Premium with a written schedule, plus the time your medical director needs for review. To compare with your agency quote, request a free quote.
