INOUE Health and Wellness Clinic Opens Doors in Quezon City

Good news for people in Quezon City as INOUE Health and Wellness Clinic finally opens its doors today, August 2 at their premier branch at the 2nd Floor of Casswyn Building in Timog Avenue, Quezon City. It sits right in front of GMA Network's main gate so you wouldn't miss it. This place is classy, very pleasing to the eyes and very comforting (I could say that because I've had treatments done during their soft opening). But overall, I'm glad they're finally opening their doors for the general public. 

INOUE isn't just for aesthetics (which they've got in the bag) but more of health and wellness, so the vibe you're getting here is YOU CAN TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF (if you haven't been doing that for ages). CEO Jiane Yu and COO John Mark Calinao says "We wanted this to be in a holistic approach so when you do come here, you will do something for your wellness. It's also about skin health, cellular health, something you could do overall. Before we even put something on the services, we tried it ourselves. We have something for aesthetics, resurfacing peel facials (without downtime), which you can do today and just go out the same day. We also have laser treatments, hair removals, botox, wellness drips, where you can go about your daily routine after it."

They talked about it lengthy on this video: 

They are FDA approved and also have doctors on site for most of their procedures. They also have hair procedures which I've done a couple weeks ago, and for those who are still contemplating of going to a place for pampering, you definitely should give this a try. They're accessible but feels very private since they're at the back of the building. The grand opening had Mayor Joy Belmonte's representative Councilor Vincent Belmonte, former PNP General Rommel Marbil and his wife, a few artists, suppliers, partners, all who wished them well in this very new venture. They know what they're doing, have the latest machines to do it, and do consultations before doing it. I feel comfortable there.

Now it's your turn to do the same. Congratulations! :)

A Day of Pampering at INOUE Health and Wellness Clinic

Here's the truth, I've never had any time for myself... I haven't had the "effort" to take care of my hair and skin lately. Problem is, my hair is thinning, and my skin hasn't been touched by anyone (not what you think) neither for cleaning. Sad I know, so I guess I needed this time for a little pampering. 

Good thing INOUE Health and Wellness Clinic sits right across GMA Network (Caswynn Building in Timog Avenue). I could literally walk there but it's raining a bit so I didn't. The place is new, relaxing, clean and super cozy. It felt like a spa rather than a super sterile hospital/clinic. It's my kind of vibe especially  when I want to relax. In a nutshell, this was all I asked for when I wanted a break from my stressful days, weeks, months and years.

Just like you, I knew I needed this. I had a few things I also wanted to address because my hair's crown part was thinning. I also had never had a serious facial aside from cleaning, so they recommended 2 things, the Hair Regeneration Therapy and the Facial Carbon Therapy. They have other kinds of services to address what you need and they talked to me lengthy about my concerns before they recommended procedures (thanks to Dr. Joey Sinchioco who's also on TikTok). I knew what I was getting into before I went there, and I have asked so many questions to pinpoint what I needed help with. Enhancing or improvement is something I'm open to, but these are all non invasive procedures, I'm so glad I did it at INOUE!

The staff were very professional. The procedures were done in precious time because I got in and out of the clinic quite fast (than how much I expected). The Hair Regeneration Therapy was done with care. Although it needed needles,  I didn't really feel anything while they were doing it. The process involves putting in lab made stem cell. The way the do it is more efficient since they do it by putting in the same amount in an area (volume delivery). This makes stem cell work more efficiently. While they have it for other procedures for anti aging and other skin issues, this one is specifically formulated for hair. The efficiency is higher, and it helps me with my issues. 

To help brighten my skin, I also went with the Facial Carbon Therapy which involves heat. While it was being done, I didn't feel much of it (case to case basis) but have seen the effects right after the procedure. They utilize a machine called Hollywood Spectra which does laser peel so you could tone, address discolorations, dark spots, melasma, and I've seen the immediate effect (like a powder finish). For me, they did a spirulina mask to close pores and calm redness. My other friends who went here did Hy Ocean mask which is meant for hydration. If you're into brighter skin, I'd gladly recommend this procedure!

Other procedures they have in INOUE Health and Wellness Clinic include IV Drips. They have options like Prime Detox (for brightening), Vital Recovery (if you feel you are about to get sick), Serene Restore (for calming and sleep), Core Balance (which they recommended for partners) and Immune Defense (for vitamins). They also told me about Pure Radiance, Timeless Essence, Platinum Glow, Energy Boost, and Holistic Regeneration, all of which are cosmetically done depending on what you need. All you need to do is ask.

A day of pampering was certainly not on my schedules, but I needed it and got it at INOUE Health and Wellness Clinic. Thank you so much to the kind folks who accommodated me during their soft opening. They'll be doing a grand launch of it very soon, and I'll tell you more about it. Stay tuned! 

Smile 360 Dental Clinic Holds SMILE360CON 2025

Renowned chain of dental clinics Smile 360 just held SMILE360CON 2025 at the F1 Hotel in Bonifacio Global City. This is an annual event for their corp, patrons and partners to celebrate their milestones every year. They've had very humble beginnings, from a quaint 20 square meter space, they now have a lot of branches in Metro Manila and nearby provinces. This is also the opportune time to introduce new brand ambassadors, folks who would want to put their message across because they want to do it quite differently.

Ms. Janna Miniella Gonzales the CEO of Smile 360 Dental Clinic says "All of our ambassadors and influencers are in one room, it's so nice to see that. We are celebrating a milestone, thank you to the press and new endorsers who you'll all see later. We believe that we need to cater to diverse kinds of clients, the dental care needs of Filipinos varies. The purpose of Smile360con is to get a range of influencers and celebrities that 

people an relate to. We have Tiktokers, veterans from film and TV, actors and actresses that could set examples, and let people know that we can do complex cases. Our company wants to elevate dental care in the country while making sure it remains affordable. We are very careful about our messaging and we want to tap the right market with the right brand ambassador. The goal is to bring affordable dental care that remains accessible for Filipinos."

Here's more of our talk with her earlier:

True to what Ms. Janna says, she has signed several artists like international actress Mercedes Cabral, veteran actor Mr. Rey PJ Abellana, the super cute Xia Vigor (whom we were quite surprised with because she's already a lady!), the folks from Star Image particularly Mr. David Bhowie aka Hungry Boss, viral gigil kid Carlo Mendoza, the very entertaining Vince Apostol aka Kapitan VJ plus the super famous "You Do Note Girl" MAJO who was such a spirited dancer! To date, they have over 20 clinics nationwide and the variety was evidently done to make sure there's representation so folks could see themselves with these individuals as they start their journey with SMILE 360 Dental Clinic. 

@kumagcow "Majo" is a nickname for Marjorry Lingat, also known as the "You Do Note" girl who gained popularity for her videos and is now building an online presence as an influencer. She was first known for her viral "You Do Note" video when she was 9 years old. #tiktokshowbizreporter #tiktoktainmentph #tiktoktainment ♬ original sound - John Bueno

 One thing I'd love to tell you is that when we talked to their resident Doctor/Dentist and partner Franchesca De Castro is that they don't really just do procedures like clockwork. They get to know their patients, show them the pros and cons, even treat them like family which for me is a huge plus. If you would like to try and see how they take pride with their work, visit their social channels or visit any of their clinics in Metro Manila. Another thing they announced is that they're planning to expand to United Arab Emirates (Dubai) as they see a huge demand for their services there too, especially for overseas Filipino workers.

 Congratulations Smile 360 Dental Clinic! Can't wait to visit soon!

BEAUTY GONZALEZ Hailed As New Face of Beautéderm's BeautéHaus

It was such a great morning to see Beauty being taken cared of some of the best in the industry. Her acting prowess is unquestionable and after a string of hit shows, Beauty Gonzalez isn't about to put the gloves off as she was just named as the femme ambassador for Beautéderm's new skin center, BeautéHaus.

 

It was established in 2016, a pet project of Beautederm CEO and President Rei Tan. BeautéHaus was first established in Angeles City in Pampanga. It was something she wanted to try, something she planned to do outside successful Beautéderm. If it didn't become a hit, she was willing to just have it for friends, family and herself since she also love treatments, but the rest as they say is history.

Today,  BeautéHaus stands as one of the most successful dermatology and aesthetic centers in Pampanga and nearby provinces. They've been sought after with services like Beautédrip, Snow White Laser, CO2 Renew Laser, Exilift and Ultherapy. Recently, they also have invested in the latest top of the line machines and equipment to make sure the center stays on top of their game benefiting hundreds of individuals who need procedures, help done.

 

Beauty Gonzalez just exudes confidence, when she entered the room, she definitely has that aura that makes anyone feel her presence, and doesn't mind to talk about things that helped her through tough times, things that could help her maintain her looks especially in a very meticulous film and TV industry. She has done Exislim, a non invasive sculpting and slimming machine which you can walk off from after procedure. She also lauded Doctors in the clinic who advised her to use botox in some areas, to maintain natural looking skin, and not to over do it.

Beauty says "I am really grateful about being part of the BeautéHaus family. I've seen how Mommy Rei has taken good care of several of my celebrity friends, of people who want to make themselves be extra confident and beautiful. I'm not getting any younger and I need all the help I can get with BeautéHaus and my goal to age gracefully!"

 Here's the press conference on video, enjoy!

Ms. Rei Anicoche Tan talked about this endorsement and says "She was vouched by other celebrities that were already part of the Beautéderm family, one thing they reiterated was how Beauty was very kind. BeautéHaus is one of the most successful businesses under the Beautéderm Group of Companies, we are still surprised on how a lot of people went to our clinic. Now it is one of the most trusted in Angeles City in Pampanga. And in our new phase, Beauty Gonzalez is the new face. She embodies what BeautéHaus stands for, to love yourself is loving the people who matter the most. With so much pride, I am happy that Beauty Gonzalez Crisologo is now part of the BeautéHaus family!"

There are plans of expansion in the next few months/years so if you can't make the trip to Angeles City in Pampanga, Manila and nearby provinces will be next as divulged in the press conference. Thank you so much Ms. Rei for having us in this momentous occasion, congratulations to BeautéHaus and the Beautéderm Group of Companies. Choosing Beauty Gonzalez was certainly a no brainer!

Skincare YouTube Channel Launched: LUMINISCE by Dr. Kaycee Reyes

When skin and preventive medicine advise ain't reachable because of the pandemic, we find ways to get in touch with the experts. In fact, she's reaching out to you now via her own YouTube channel Dr. Kaycee Reyes, founder of famed Luminisce Holistic Skin Innovations.

I've witnessed a few friends and went to her clinic in BGC a few years ago, and I've seen really remarkable change in their skin. Her new YouTube channel is going to be more on programs about skincare and talk about how you can take good care of it with your family. You'll see her giving advice, including celebrities like the Legaspi twins, Carmina Villaruel and Zoren Legaspi. Of course, there are regular joes like you and me who may be featured in the show so don't hesitate to subscribe if you're interested in the topic. See how an expert does it especially if you're looking for skin solutions, hair too.

Doc Kaycee says "I'm a skin doctor, I pursued preventive medicine and cosmetic surgery in Germany. I appreaciate you being here today. 9 years ago, I didn't know we would be this big. The idea of being beautiful inside out is honestly difficult especially with the heightened stress we get because of the pandemic. We are reaching to patients so they could reach their goals. We started with online consultation, treatments in the clinic and send it to homes. Patients have loved it and now we're releasing 10 more treatments from Luminisce and products. Health is wealth, there's no one pill that can cure everything, but prevention is definitely better than cure. We also launched SOL REVIVE, mobile on wheels, to do preventive care. These are aesthetic treatments that can be scheduled and arranged with patients. The YouTube channel is also launching today, episodes will come out in the next few weeks. We hope you get to see it soon! I believe YouTube is still in its infancy, so we're testing how to reinvent ourselves in the channel. I've been writing for a couple of years now, the YouTube channel would be some place to inform people with evidence based medical procedures."

 

 

Luminisce has a branch in BGC (this photo), The Podium and Alabang

Innosense.ph (Innosense Organics) is also a health food store curated by Dr. Kaycee Reyes. It's part of the preventive medicine procedures, so we don't progress to diseases. Diabetes, depression, negative life events, it is activated by lifestyle choices. The food that we eat should not induce inflammation, nor should it be harmful food. We need a reset and be mindful how we could prevent it. We need to lessen toxicity, and prevent the activation of certain diseases. We need to age gracefully and Dr. Kaycee will take care of part of that as well. 

 

The first episode on the YouTube channel will include the Villaruel-Legaspi family. They've been with Luminisce for 6-7 years already as patients, they're very kind and have always given a very positive personality. Carmina, Zoren, Mavy and Cassy have had different skin conditions, they come once a month previously, but since they couldn't go to the clinic, they're given kits once a month so they would be able to take care of their skin even at the comforts of their home. There will be a few more episodes in the pipeline including aesthetics, preventive medicine, mental health, life in the pandemic, things that you could learn from so you become a better individual inside out. You may start by subscribing to her YouTube channel youtube.com/c/luminisceByDocKaycee

Congratulations Doc Kaycee! Can't wait to see the episodes!

Spoil Dad with the Luminisce Pour Homme Kit

Celebrating Father's Day yesterday without one was a little bittersweet for me, as I got to remember all the good memories my Dad and I made. To look back in those few years I've spent with him and share some of my skin care regimen so he too can take care of his skin. Let's face it, most men in the past only have had soap and water for grooming (also shaving). Other than that, they would experiment with women's products and other stuff that isn't necessarily designed for us. These days, there's tons out there that can address what men need especially if you're investing in yourself, to make sure you look good even as you age; because the last thing you would want to look like is a prune when you're already in your late years.

As you may understand, men's skin just isn't the same as with women. It's thicker, more oily (in some cases) and ages quite differently. Aside from that, not all men appreciate the scents that comes with women's products which are either flowery or fruit scented, not to mention what other harsh ingredients there are in them that don't really fit what we need. This week, I've had the pleasure of testing out the Luminisce Pour Homme Kit. For those who don't know, Luminisce is a skin care institute that also creates premium skin and body wellness solutions owned and operated by renowned clinical dermatologist Dr. Kaycee Reyes. I've had the chance to meet her a few years ago when I went to her clinic in BGC with some friends from the blogging industry. They have taken good care of their skin and I've seen how she personally tends to them whenever they visit her clinic.

They created the Luminisce Pour Homme line so men don't have to do guesswork if they want to take good care of their skin. The Luminisce Sunblock should be put on your face, neck and extremities when you plan to go out. This also would be good for those who have some amount of daylight going into their homes. I used the Luminisce Facial Wash in different times of the day to get dirt and oil off my skin. Before I do work or spend hours monitoring channels for entertainment news, I do this so I feel fresh while lounging around the my house. The Men’s Youth Fairy Cream would be good for those who need a little help in the aging department, it not only moisturizes but hastens your skin to renew a bit (unnoticeable peeling). Those fine lines would lessen, but I think I would need more time to see that happen in my case. They also have in the kit something they call D Cure (Once-a-month Vitamin D) and Glow Fuel C (Vitamin C Serum) which contain a good amount of anti oxidants which you can apply on your skin. My personal favorite is the Hair Rescue (Anti-hair fall spray) which has an active ingredient called Minoxidil to help promote hair growth and treatment in male pattern baldness (especially for thinning hair). I use it right after I come out from the shower and dry off my hair a bit because you need to apply this when its damp. Spray a bit and rub in lightly before you apply other styling products you need to use if you plan to go out. I didn't go out that much these days and just plainly use it after my cold showers because it's so hot where I am.

Now if you're thinking of spoiling your Dad, boyfriend, sibling or friend, I bet this would be a good place to start. It comes in pretty small packaging which you can carry around in small Men's Kikay kit if you have one in your man bags. Originally, this is priced at around Php 3,570 but they've got a promo running so that you can avail this for only Php 2,850 at Luminisce Holistic Skin Innovations branches nationwide. You may also call them via (0977) 804 4601 or get in touch with them through their social channels @luminisce on Facebook or @luminisce_official on IG. They're pretty responsive so ask if you need information about the products too.

Now go ahead and spoil your Dad, it's not too late! :)

/*Luminisce Holistic Skin Innovations branches are found at the 2/F Mercury Drug Bldg., 32 nd Street corner 4th Ave., Fort Bonifacio Global City. They also have a branch at the Podium located at the 4/F The Podium Mall, 18 ADB Avenue, Ortigas Center in Mandaluyong City. They also have one in Alabang at Unit 5 Bldg. 8 Molito Lifestyle Center, Madrigal Avenue cor. Alabang Zapote Road, Alabang, Muntinlupa City.

SvelTi Aesthetic Centre Outs LAVIEEN Machine

SvelTi Aesthetic Centre just opened its doors to bloggers this afternoon as they leveled up with services as they acquire new LAVIEEN Machine.

Ms. JM Matias, SvelT'i Operations Manager says 'We are a little tight today, but I would  to personally like to thank you all for coming. Most of skin problems we encounter in our clinics involve deep acne scars and we now have something to address it, this is Lavieen, it's skin rebirth. This would be best for Pigmentation."

Dr Rowena Aguilar-Joven adds "How long is the healing period? They always ask that. People are so afraid of procedures, this is the first of our BB Lasers. This is a machine with a 1927mm Thulium laser to target pigment lesions or photo damaged skin. Lavieen can be used in sub ablative mode, to target the junction between the epidermis and dermis. Coagulation and denaturalization mainly for whitening but with less downtime. No more fear of not going out and live a normal life like when you do other fractional lasers. Clinical trials show epithelial cells remain, have thermal effect of upper dermis, it would be best for skin rejuvenation. Pigment problems are cured, pores reduced and elasticity in your skin improves. On the day of treatment you'll get slight swelling, scab formation on second day, elimination of scab on third day and after 5 days you're all done. Scabbing are as small as dots of a ballpen, and it would dry out after a few days."

Here's how they did part of the procedure:

She adds "We also call this the BB Laser, at the same time it reduces fine wrinkles and large pores."

According to panelists who have undergone the procedure, you will see results right after it. You come in and in a few minutes you're done. Some patients who suffer from Melasma, enlargment of pores, look like they have BB cream without using it. It's like getting three results in one. They also do organic and fruit based facials, contouring, all you have to do is ask.

SvelTi Aesthetic Centres are found in 61 Timog Avenue in Quezon City and the other one at the GF of the Millennium Building in Ortigas Center Pasig. 

New Online Skincare Shop: Exuviance by Ross

We met with Ms. Ross Licup over lunch the other day for the launch of Exuviance by Ross, a new online health and beauty store over at http://www.exuviancebyross.com. She's the owner, but I felt how very passionate she was about the products that she carry. Her success in the beauty industry didn't come easy as it has stemmed from her near death experience. To cut the story short, she had a rare immunity and health problem in the past which she and her husband survived from. She was told by local doctors to only have  few months to live after being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, but then she sought for cures outside the country. 



She participated in programs, unconventional clinical tests and procedures and kept herself positive all throughout the ordeal, ultimately to find a cure and successfully battling that against the odds. This experience not only made her better, but exposed to find the best solutions from around the world which she saw was effective. All the results with these products made her realize to start advocating how people should take care of the body and our largest organ, the skin. She then knew how they introduced proteins, nutrients that can be naturally absorbed by the skin without relying on anything artificial. She saw how these products were good to slow down aging, to reverse it, and result to younger looking skin in a process called skin buffing, which is a treatment for your DNA which she pronounces are not new discoveries. These are just probably one of the few things that doctor's wouldn't tell you so you would go back to their clinics. 

Heliocare has once a day dietary supplements made with natural extracts. It's packed with antioxidant properties which may help your skin protect itself.

Ms. Ross Licup for Exuviance by Ross says “As we age, the skin’s regenerative cycle including our body’s functions slow down and deteriorate. The same happen to our skin’s ability to regenerate and naturally repair itself.”

Ms. Licup says "We want to get to our consumers get the top quality products from our health and beauty online store in a very affordable price. I have personally tested them, I used these products and apply it on me, my family and friends. We have products that we exclusively distribute so if you compare them with other online stores you won't get it the same price as we have. We have water based foundations, anti aging treatments, no surgery involved. We have foundations that firms up the skin, which you can wear the whole day as it stays for the longest time even under a spot light. You won't have to cover anymore, just a few touch ups, some of the best regimens which would cost you thousands of pesos, you could get it at a better rate in ours. If we can afford to look for these treatments and we can't have access to it, what more with other people? We are very happy about the results of our products, and I wish people see that when we have it in our store. I hope they see the value in that."

In order to get registered in the new online store, you must add to cart and purchase products from the store first. It will later on ask you for your details so take note of that. If you see some products that are listed there but without an add to cart function, chances are it's already sold out. You may find alternatives there because they have various SKU's from different brands. Mind you these are handpicked by Ms. Ross Licup herself.

Each purchase online would actually also earn you points and you can use that to get free services from their salon, which can be scheduled and availed by appointment on a later date. You can also purchase services on the site and get points as well, so you definitely get more.

They also have BiRetix Duo gel and mask used in the treatment of acne to lower inflammation, to clear, unclog pores and reduce redness in the skin. This would be good for oily ones like me.

They also have Endocare creams which promote skin regeneration, that would be good for aging or damaged skin. Fix those eye bags for you before you put on make up in the morning.

The store also has the Sparitual line, a vegan - eco friendly product line from nail polish to body lotions to bath tonics... they have it.

For those who want smooth shiny hair, the online store also has Neu Du hair treatment products and shampoo, so you get clean as a whisk and stay gorgeous all day.

These Endocare C Pure products have Vitamin C which would brighten your skin, helps in skin regeneration and is anti aging. Best of all, it's oil free so those with oily skin like me don't have to worry.

I was specifically interested about these Sparitual Bath scrubs and salts. It will be the perfect way to spend my staycation at hotels because I usually spend a LOT of time in the bath tub. That's where I usually get lots of rest. Now I can make my skin even better as it is!

Revitalash products are known for their mascara primers, thickening mascara agents and other lash products. If you're a girl who needs this on their face, their's is cheaper than in stores in the country because they source it directly and supply them with it.

Last but not the least are the dermatologist developed skin care by Exuviance called NeoStrata. They have something for your skin concerns as this line addresses aging, wrinkles, pigmentation, oily skin and others.

If you're out for taking care of your precious face, they have pure collagen in a mask form. Theirs is more affordable than the ones out in the market. So if you want to save a few bucks, this would be a good place to start.

Now you know her story, you could take a trip to the new online beauty portal http://exuviancebyross.com/ today so you could take your skin regimens to another level. She's used these products herself and vouches of their effectiveness because she's done the legwork of picking each piece that had made her well and still gorgeous at her age over the years. I have tried ordering through the website and currently they have BDO balance transfer and over the counter as payment method. Soon, they'll also be adding other banks and a corporate Paypal account so it would be easy for online transactions. I've already seen some of the items on the website have been sold out so if I were you, avoid the holiday rush and get your skin, bath and hair essentials now at Exuviance by Ross' online store. They also have free delivery for orders Php 10,000 and up. Aside from that, they have clinic and spa services which also can be purchased at a huge discount on the website. Their physical clinic is just at Arnaiz in Makati, just a stones throw away from the SM Makati-Glorietta- Greenbelt area.You may schedule your appointments there.

 Cheers to good skin!

Getting Rid of Acne: Try SkinTrends!

We all have skin problems during puberty, or our lifetime. Some less, some more seen but overall, we get to that one point when you just don't want to see it anymore especially when you need to go out to study or work. You get to break that normalcy because if you've got acne, you'll be ridiculed, looked upon and worse, treated like a freak coming out of a laboratory. I've met Dr. Herbia Joy Gonzales-Mongcal a couple of months ago and she did an excellent job answering questions about how the simple problem of pimples can be resolved by regular, time tested procedures she has been doing in clinics for a throng of her clientele.

Skintrends was started years ago by Dr. Joy in the city of Sta. Rosa, Laguna. It was called HCG Face and Body Clinic then and was a haven for wanted skin services at an affordable and reasonable cost. With further studies, training, and technology by her put in on the clinic, Dr. Joy got more clients from the southern Metro Manila area. The clamor to have more clinics that would be also closer to other cities became stronger and so they expanded branches to accommodate those who need the same level of service and quality products that would solve the real undeniable problem of acne. Her efforts were evidently bearing fruit because after her old clients saw how successful their treatments were, they had the next generation to also try their clinic later on. The sons, daughters, friends and family all became accustomed to what Skintrends provided these past few years, They heavily relied on word of mouth and since they've opened up a couple of more clinics nearby, they wanted more people to benefit from what they have inside their clinics. 

When I saw the list of their services, I thought it was going to be a little expensive, but no. I didn't even see anything ridiculously priced at all. Then they go on and told us that we could individually treat our readers too.

If you print this out and show it to them in their clinics, you'll get 100 pesos off your services (one voucher per day/transaction only). I think I even saw a 200++ basic facial on the list, now with this, you can get that same procedure at half the cost! Isn't that crazy? I know. Anyway, if you're still having problems with pimples, acnes or just plain want to get something done on your skin, try out SkinTrends in their branches at Sta. Rosa Laguna, Eastwood City, SM Fairview, Ali Mall, Festival Supermall in Alabang, and Pacific Century Tower in Quezon City. She's got strict training done on all her people so you won't be sorry if you avail their services. Aside from that, she know what she's doing and even if I did my research about it, she accommodates questions from people as crazy as me. So think about it, would you not want to treat yourself today? Print the image above and enjoy your time there... it'll be worth it especially if you're still suffering from acne. :)
