Quick Answer
Gardasil 9 protects against nine HPV types: 6 and 11, which cause most genital warts, and seven high-risk types behind most HPV-driven cancers. Adults from 15 receive three doses over six months, and the complete course at Hisential is S$840 inclusive of GST. It is registered for ages 9 to 45; vaccination past 45 is assessed case by case. An existing HPV infection does not rule you out, because the other eight types still matter.

How much does the HPV vaccine cost in Singapore?
One price for the whole course, quoted up front, so you are not comparing per-dose figures across clinics and discovering the total later. Everything needed to finish the schedule is included.
MediSave covers only the older bivalent (2-strain) HPV vaccine under the national programme. The 9-valent course given at Hisential is not MediSave-claimable and is payable in full at the visit.
Prices last updated . Prices include GST unless stated otherwise and are confirmed by your concierge before anything is booked.

Why men are vaccinated too
There is no routine HPV screening test for men, and HPV drives anal, penile and a growing share of oropharyngeal cancers. That makes vaccination the main preventive tool available to men, rather than one option among several. If you are also reviewing your wider risk, see STD testing or a health screening.
How your course runs
Short consultation
A doctor checks your history, current HPV status if known, pregnancy status and any previous doses, then confirms the right schedule for you.
First dose the same visit
The injection takes a minute. We keep you in the clinic briefly afterwards, as with any vaccination.
We track the schedule
You are reminded when dose two and dose three are due, so a six-month course does not quietly lapse at dose one.
The two questions most people arrive with
I already have HPV - is there any point vaccinating?
Usually yes, and the reasoning is simple arithmetic. Gardasil 9 covers nine HPV types. Almost nobody who tests positive is carrying all nine, most are carrying one, sometimes two. Vaccination does nothing about the type you already have; it protects against the seven or eight you have not met yet, several of which are the high-risk types linked to cervical, anal, penile and throat cancer.
Two caveats worth stating plainly. The vaccine is preventive, not therapeutic, so it will not clear a current infection or treat existing warts, which is a separate pathway covered on HPV and genital wart removal. And expected benefit is lower than for someone with no exposure at all, because part of the panel is already spent. Lower is not zero, and that is the judgement your doctor talks through with you rather than deciding for you.
I am over 45 - am I too late for the HPV vaccine?
Gardasil 9 is registered for ages 9 to 45, so past 45 it stops being a routine offer and becomes an individual decision made at consultation. Age itself is not a hard biological cut-off. The registration boundary reflects where the trial populations sat and where population-level benefit is clearest, not the point at which the immune response stops working.
What actually shifts the balance is your exposure profile: new or multiple partners, a recent change in relationship status, immune suppression, or a history of HPV-related disease. Someone newly single at 50 sits in a very different position from someone in a long monogamous relationship. We will tell you if the case for vaccinating is weak, rather than selling you a course.
What to expect on the day
The injection
Given into the upper arm and over in about a minute. No fasting, no preparation, and you can return to work straight afterwards.
Common effects
Usually local: soreness, redness or swelling at the injection site, sometimes with mild headache, fever or fatigue for a day or two.
Before you leave
We keep you in the clinic briefly for observation, as with any vaccination, and book your next dose before you go.
Tell us if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy or breastfeeding. Vaccination is deferred during pregnancy; breastfeeding is not a reason to delay. Cervical screening continues at the recommended interval for your age, because the vaccine does not cover every oncogenic type or act on an infection acquired earlier.

At Hisential the complete Gardasil 9 course is S$840, inclusive of GST. That is the whole course rather than a single dose, and it covers the doctor consultation, every dose in your schedule, administration and the reminders that keep the course on track.
In most cases yes. Gardasil 9 covers nine HPV types, and someone who tests positive is usually carrying only one or two of them. The vaccine cannot clear an infection you already have, but it can protect against the other high-risk types you have not encountered - which is the point of vaccinating after a positive result rather than instead of it.
Gardasil 9 is registered for ages 9 to 45, so vaccination beyond 45 is not a routine offer. It is assessed individually at consultation, weighing your exposure risk, relationship situation and history against the reduced expected benefit at older ages. Your doctor will tell you plainly if the case is weak.
Gardasil 9 has a long safety record across large post-marketing populations. The usual effects are local - soreness, redness or swelling at the injection site - sometimes with mild headache, fever or fatigue for a day or two. We keep you in the clinic briefly after the injection, as with any vaccination.
MediSave covers only the older bivalent (2-strain) HPV vaccine under the national programme. The 9-valent course given at Hisential is not MediSave-claimable. Fees are private and payable in full at the visit. MediSave, CHAS and Healthier SG subsidies do not apply. Some insurance plans cover consultations and investigations on a reimbursement basis: you pay the clinic and claim back from your insurer afterwards. The concierge provides the documentation you need and helps with the claim paperwork. Instalment payment is available: ask the concierge about the options before your visit.
