Aivee Teo bags Ulthera Premier award

For the third consecutive year, Dr. Aivee Aguilar-Teo of the Aivee Institute was presented the prestigious Ulthera Ultra Premie r Awa rd, celebr at i ng he r achievements and contributions to the field of aesthetic medicine. Heralded as one of the single top users of Ulthera worldwide three years in a row, Teo was cited for using Ulthera in delivering youthful- looking skin to patients.

Maintaining youthful-looking and firm skin has always been one of the toughest challenges women around the globe face. From using creams, skin-tightening lasers, to invasive surgical facial lifting procedures, more and more women have jumped into the beauty bandwagon to help delay and blur the signs of aging.

True youthful skin resembles that of a baby’s — smooth, blemish-free, lifted and contoured, and plump. Resurfacing lasers with anti- aging creams powerfully pack a punch against superficial blemishes, while fillers guarantee the ideal facial volumetry. However, one of the hardest battles is how to defy the pull of gravity exhibited by sagging and jowling. Traditional radio-frequency and other non-invasive skin tightening devices only penetrate up to the upper dermis to stimulate collagen, producing a slight lift. Ulthera is reportedly the only device in the market that could reach up to the SMAS (Superficial Muscular Aponeurotic System) — the same structure plast ic surgeons pull when doing Rhyt idectomy (facelift) — producing a significant directional lift on the skin. Many doctors agree that Ultherapy in the hands of a qualified and highly skilled doctor is an invaluable tool in delaying and even eliminating the need for surgical counterparts.

Many medical practitioners have adopted the technology Ulthera offers, but just like Botox and Dermal Fillers, Ulthera is an exercise of one’s artistic eye perfected through experience.

Proud patients of the Aivee Institute who swear by the wonders of Ulthera are The Philippine STAR’s Tim Yap, multi- awarded actor Coco Martin and news anchor Karen Davila.
