Belo Medical Group hailed as the No.1 Thermage user in the Philippine­s and Southeast Asia

-

In 2005, Belo Medical Group introduced Thermage to the Philippine­s. It is an anti-aging treatment that uses a patented radiofrequ­ency technology that revitalise­s and tightens one’s dull skin, resulting in a more defined and smallerloo­king face. One session boasts of immediate, evident results that only get better in the months to come. Belo has since then been the top user of the procedure in the country and was even awarded a Global Leadership Award in 2007 for the most number of Thermage procedures performed worldwide. These accolades and more have merited the Belo Medical Group its third Black Diamond Award in the Philippine­s. They have received the highly-coveted award for three consecutiv­e years. Spearheade­d by Solta Medical Inc, the global leader in the aesthetic energy-based device industry, the award is bestowed on dermatolog­y centres who have provided the most number of Thermage and Fraxel treatments in the country. For 2018, Belo was also named the Top Thermage User in the ASEAN making it the only clinic to represent the Philippine­s in the region. The company also possesses a 46 per cent market share for Thermage as per Solta Medical, making them the most dominant player in the industry.

With 35 Thermage-certified doctors under its helm, Belo is the top choice for patients as they are always assured of quality results from the treatment. Thermage is also a non-invasive procedure that requires no downtime, making it a favourite amongst celebritie­s and famous personalit­ies.

Thermage is beauty queen approved, as Miss Universe 1993 Dayanara Torres is known to undergo the treatment herself. At 44 years old, she looks as fresh-faced as she did when she won the crown more than 25 years ago. Her good genes coupled

with a bit of Belo’s Thermage magic has allowed Torres to age with utter grace.

Multi-awarded broadcast journalist Korina Sanchez-Roxas also goes through a Thermage treatment once a year. She underwent at least three sessions before unveiling her new look last year, which left everyone in awe. Sanchez-Roxas found that the procedure best complement­ed her fitness journey. With her weight loss, “gravity beckoned,” she said. The solution to this was of course, Thermage, as it visibly tightened her skin.

The actress Iza Calzado also finds that Thermage is a worthy and practical investment. “You do it once, and you’re done for the year,” she says. An advocate of body positivity and selflove, Calzado believes that loving herself involves taking care of her physical beauty as it is part of the job she is passionate about. She also found that Thermage helped in making her look her best when she wed Ben Wintle last December. “When it comes to treatments, as long as it’s preventive, not invasive, and I don’t end up nit-picking myself, I fully support it. After all, true beauty is in how you feel about yourself.”

With almost three decades worth of experience in the aesthetic and dermatolog­y industry, Belo Medical Group continues to lead the pack. This is only emphasised by their expertise in Thermage, which they have been recognised for region-wide. As a three-time Black Diamond Awardee, Belo Medical Group will only continue to realise their dream of making Filipinos beautiful one person at a time.
