Contours unmasks new face



by Robbie Pangilinan

Socialite-philanthropist Tessa Prieto-Valdes removed her masks, literally, as she was launched as the new face of Contours Advanced Face and Body Sculpting Institute, the first and only cosmetic surgery center in the Philippines certified to do VASER High Definition Liposculpture.

Twenty entertainment editors from major broadsheets and magazineswitnessed the “unmasking” of Tessa, who went through Contours’ Revalift procedure, a non-surgical facelift technology that uses the anti-lax machine in effectively stimulating collagen formation and delaying the signs of aging.

Sports anchor and personality Patricia Bermudez-Hizon hosted the masquerade attended by the country’s socialites. Guests, including artists Jhon, Mike Swift and DJ Archie, and Dr. Koko Roura had a great time with the feast of food prepared by Contours, as well as the presentations and fun games. Tv5 Juicy and TV5 News covered the event.

Tessa talked about graceful aging and her experience with Revalift. She revealed that she felt immediate lifting and tightening of the skin after the procedure. Dr. Claudine Roura, owner of Contours and pioneer of the VASER® Lipo System in the Philippines, gamely answered questions from the press people.

The procedure, developed by a Japanese doctor, has its machine manufactured in Korea, making it especially designed for Asian skin. It is a comfortable, outpatient procedure with no downtime and no risks, according to Dr. Roura.

Dr. Roura said that the Revalift is for men and women in their mid-30’s to early 50’s who are starting to show signs of aging like wrinkles, deep lines, sagging, nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and sagging neck. Tessa falls under this age group.

Even though Tessa appears to already possess a flawless face, Dr. Roura wants to enhance it with Contours’ advanced technology. “She needs an e-lite treatment for her freckles and facial veins, and the silkpeel treatment to deliver cosmeceuticals deep into her skin to treat fine line and wrinkles, pigmentation, and to improve hydration of her skin,” Dr. Roura says. #
