When it comes to skin care, Joey Generoso of Side A, the Filipino band
said to be unsurpassable in popularity, trusts no other than The Skin
Specialist.
The crooner who has captured the hearts of audience of all ages has
put his whole trust on Dr. Jean Marquez, founder and owner of The Skin
Specialist Clinic and her Ulthera lifting and firming procedure.
Ultherapy is a nonsurgical cosmetic procedure for the face and neck
that uses ultrasound to specifically target the foundational layer of
facial tissue that doctors address in surgery. The use of ultrasound
also enables the doctor to actually see the layers of skin being
treated, allowing the energy to be delivered precisely to where it
will be most productive.
Dr. Jean, who has been practicing Clinical and Cosmetic Dermatology
since 1999, says that Ulthera is one of the most requested procedures
of her patients 40 years old and up, both male and female.
“Droopy eyebrows and sagging skin happens during this age. And this is
what Joey needs. Celebrities like him can age fast because they work
late, they put on heavy make up, and they’re always under intense
lighting,” Dr. Jean explains.
“Collagen is a natural protein that gives skin its youthfulness by
keeping it firmed and toned. As we age, collagen loses its strength
and its ability to stand up to the effects of gravity that pull the
skin downward. Ultherapy jumpstarts a repair process that strengthens
your existing collagen and produces fresh, new collagen,” the doctor
continues.
Dr. Jean, one of the main hosts of the show Pinoy MD at GMA 7, shares
that Hollywood celebrities prefer Ulthera because it has no downtime
unlike surgery. Patients can go back to work immediately after the
procedure. The result is instant and continues to improve within three
months. It is a one-time procedure and results can last until two
years. This procedure can hit the deeper layers of skin to get that
long lasting lifting effect.
The only side effects of the procedure is slight redness for a few
hours following the treatment, slight swelling, tingling or tenderness
to touch for a few weeks, but these are typically mild and temporary.
The majority of patients only need one treatment, but annual touch-up
treatments can help slow down the rate of skin aging.
Good candidates for Ulthera are those who want some lifting to look
more refreshed and toned but are not ready for surgery, younger people
who want to “stay ahead of the game,” and those looking to prolong the
effect of surgery.
For a performer like Joey G, it is important to look good.
“With my line of work, people look at me every time. If I look good, I
also feel good. It boosts my self-esteem and upgrades my confidence,”
says Joey, who is only open to non-surgical, non-evasive treatment
procedures.
It has only been a month and Dr. Jean has already seen in Joey a
remarkable lifting of jowls, smaller face and lifted eyebrows. The
resident dermatologist in the GMA show Unang Hirit says she cannot
wait to see the maximum results after three months.
Joey got to know Dr. Jean and her clinic through one of the members of
her staff. Since then, Joey, his wife and daughter have been regular
clients. For the Generosos, Dr. Jean’s credibility is unparalleled.
“I can see the mastery of her work. She recommends only the essential
treatments. She is also concerned about her clients. They actually
treat me not only as a client, but also part of the family. Dr. Jean
is a hands-on doctor. They always text or call us after the treatment
if we have any concerns or comments. She cares for her clients. You
can feel their warmth as soon as you step into their clinic,” shares
the distinct voice that gives Side A its unique sound.
The Skin Specialist Clinic, located at the ground floor of ESNA
Building, Timog Ave., Quezon City, offers a wide range of services
such as facials, anti-aging, skin lightening, laser treatments for
scars and birthmarks or other skin problem, slimming program, face
firming and lifting procedure among others. The clinic uses advanced,
effective and safe treatments, as well as cutting-edge and state of
the art technology and non- invasive techniques.
Joey G of Side A chose none other than the best—The Skin Specialist.
And his choice is perfect. #
