Beautiful skin for all

NOT EVERYONE IS BORN WITH porcelain skin. For some, birth­marks, blotches, acne, scars, and wrinkles further worsen the situation. But there is no need to worry as natural-looking beauty can be achieved with the latest scientific innovations and technological

marvels from The Skin Specialist. Founded in October 2002 by certified dermatolo­gist Dr. Jean Marquez, FPDS, the Quezon City skincare clinic counts the provision of safe, non-invasive and effective solutions for various skin concerns as its no. 1 mis­sion. Whether for medical treatment or simply a total aesthetic makeover, patients at The Skin Specialist are assured of profes­sional service handled by a staff of highly trained registered nurses. The Skin Spe­cialist offers a wide range of services: Anti-aging treatments such as firming and lifting procedures, slimming, whitening and laser treatments for scars, birthmarks and other skin problems as well as a comprehensive series of facials, peels and acne treatments. The products and services can be custom­ized to one’s needs. Using state-of-the-art, USFDA-approved equipment, results on enhancements look natural and do not come off starkly different from the previous look. Dr. Marquez has studied and trained abroad, attending master class trainings on anti-aging treatments and lasers to keep abreast of the continuous development in the industry. She also hosts a medical show on TV and is a frequent resource person for similar-topic events organized by media outfits and various organizations.
