How not to look your age
The “ber” months are upon us and there is no perfect time to work on how to look one’s best at all those upcoming reunions than now. Our faces and necks cannot help but show the effects of time and gravity. Besides wearing head-turning clothes and that perfect smile, look years younger without looking “done” with the help of The Skin Specialist. The skin care clinic is one of the first to offer Ulthera for men and women, considered the gold standard for non-surgical facelifts. Patients need only one treatment to look younger. Results are still visible after a year’s time following the procedure, but since the skin continues to age, yearly touch-up treatments are advised to help keep pace with the aging process. Newer anti-aging treatments are coming out in the market but Ulthera remains the most sought-after procedure as it is the only USFDA-approved treatment for lifting and tightening skin on the face and neck. Of course, beautiful, natural-looking results would depend on the hand performing the cosmetic procedure. It is a good thing The Skin Specialist founder, Dr. Jean Marquez, FPDS has an eye for beauty to match her technical expertise. Face the crowd minus sags and drooping eyelids without going under the knife. Now is the best time for the procedure — two to three months ahead of all those holiday happenings. The Skin Specialist is located at the ground floor of ESNA building, 30 Timog Ave., Quezon City with contact numbers 374-8087 or (0917)810-1319.
