Welcome to Xiglo, Belo Medical Group’s first aesthetics and wellness clinic
for Belo
MANILA, Philippines — Thirty six years ago, Dr. Victoria “Vicki” Belo, M.D. pioneered aesthetic medicine in the Philippines, advancing it at a time when it was unheard of among Filipinos.
By trailblazing and democratizing the industry, the Belo Medical Group made “Belo” synonymous to beauty. Decades later, it is poised to do the same for its next chapter: wellness and precision longevity.
Xiglo: Where outer radiance meets inner vitality
The approach to aesthetic medicine has evolved over time, with patients not just prioritizing how they look, but also how they feel.
Outer radiance is now closely linked to inner vitality, and the Belo Medical Group stands at the forefront of this with Xiglo, the group’s first aesthetics and wellness clinic.
Here, the approach to holistic beauty isn’t one-size-fits-all: It’s physician-led, science-backed, evidence-based, and personalized to your own needs and goals.
“We’ve wanted to move into longevity for a few years now, and the reason we did it only now is because we’ve been researching, we’ve been studying and we really don’t do anything halfway,” said Dr. Vicki Belo, founder, chairwoman of the Board, and chief medical advisor of Belo Medical Group. “We want to make sure that everything is science-based, so we’ve partnered with the experts on longevity.”
Located in Rockwell’s 1 Proscenium, Xiglo is a premium and private space featuring aesthetic treatment rooms and a dedicated wellness wing with wellness rooms.
By design, the Xiglo experience is absolutely personalized: by-appointment-only access and no shared spaces, with a dedicated personal concierge guiding you throughout the entire process.
At the helm: Global longevity expert Dr. Dominik Thor
The science is clear: looking your best is strongly connected to how well you’re aging. And improving how you age, based on your specific biology and by establishing your personal baseline through doctor-led tests, is what precision longevity is all about.
Xiglo’s clinical framework for precision longevity was created together with an internationally-recognized authority in longevity and regenerative medicine: Dr. Dominik Thor, founder and president of the Geneva College of Longevity Science, the world’s first institute of higher education dedicated exclusively to longevity science.
Dr. Thor co-directed the world’s first doctoral program in medicine specializing in longevity sciences at Ovidius University in Romania, holds patented breakthroughs in cell regeneration and skin rejuvenation in Europe and the US, and is currently a visiting professor at the Mayo Clinic Center for Aesthetic Medicine and Surgery in the US.
Through Dr. Thor’s expertise, Xiglo paves the way for world-class, personalized precision longevity medicine in the Philippines.
"It is always going to be ultra-personalized. You have to understand what the patient is made of: their genetic makeup, their epigenetic makeup, their history, their environment. Only then can you build the journey," Dr. Thor said. "This is a long-term process, not a one-off treatment. It has to be built on scientific evidence, rooted in ethics and oversight. You are influencing the trajectory of a patient's life."
The signature experience: Private, premium and personal
When you deal with inflammation, hormonal imbalance, and metabolic fluctuations at the cellular level, it becomes visibly seen in healthier skin, hair and body.
At Xiglo, you can expect to experience Belo’s signature treatments—including the signature, non-invasive Belo Genesis Lift, the intimate-area-focused Belo ExoBloom, and the Belo Body Reset program—alongside new therapies that address the most common Filipino health concerns: poor sleep, chronic stress, sluggish energy, difficulty focusing, weight issues, aging skin, and other conditions specific to women’s and men’s health.
"We listened to our patients, and what they were asking for changed," said Gina Lorenzana, CEO of Belo Medical Group. "People still care about aesthetics, and we're very good at that. But now they're also concerned about what's happening on the inside.
Lorenzana added, "The number one thing we heard was sleep. People are tired, yet they can't sleep. Then perimenopause and menopause hit women, and they don't have a place to talk about it. Men go through the same thing, and they won't even talk to their friends about it. These aren't people who are sick. They're well, and they want to live longer. Xiglois our response to that."
These personalized treatment plans are designed with a panel of specialists bringing in precise expertise to XIGLO:
- Sleep doctor Dr. Jimmy Chang, the current president of the Philippine Society of Sleep Medicine
- OB-GYN Dr. Patricia Kiziler, a diplomate with the Philippine Obstetrics and Gynecological Society
- Orthopedic doctor Dr. JJ Pua, a member of the board of trustees of the Philippine Orthopaedic Association
- Urologist Dr. PJ Fernandez, the current chief of Cardinal Santos Medical Center’s Department of Surgery-Urology
- Precision longevity specialist Dr. Rainier Mozo, the current president and CEO of Clearbridge Medical Philippines.
The Xiglo journey begins with a consultation with a precision longevity physician, where your medical history is discussed and health goals are set. From there, specific diagnostic tests are recommended to establish your personal baseline, and to build your personal treatment plan with a panel of specialists.
This plan can include signature Xiglo therapies such as custom IV infusions, at-home sleep studies, exosome-based treatments for intimate care, and Exomind brain technology to clear brain fog and increase focus. Every result is discussed with you, and consistent monitoring and support as you progress is ensured.
When health and vitality is cared for on the inside, radiance naturally translates outward. Belo revolutionized beauty. Today, Xiglo is setting the standard for wellness and precision longevity.
