Ms Pia Wurtzbach was launched again as the face of Ultherapy at The Shangri-La Fort BGC

Making time for ourselves is necessary for our well-being. Exercising regularly, watching what we eat, getting enough sleep, taking care of our skin, tending to our spiritual needs and protecting our mental health is all part of self-care. 

Just like what Ultherapy celebrity ambassador Ms Pia Wurtzbach shared to her audience, together with Host Ms Issa Litton, Dr. Ed Tolentino, FPPS and board-certified dermatologist, Dr. Irene Gaile Robredo-Vitas. last September 8, 2022 at Shangri-la The Fort BGC. 

Pia Wurtzbach may have won Miss Universe back in 2015 yet she continues to inspire everyone with her beauty and strength. Amid the pandemic in 2021, it took a lot of strength for her to talk about her struggles growing up, as well as leading to and during her reign as Miss Universe in 2015 on her YouTube channel. 

It was the first time Pia opened-up about her mental health struggles in public because she wanted to paint a picture not of a perfect beauty queen, but of a real person with real-life experiences. There's no shame in admitting that you aren't perfect and there's no shame in admitting that you need help.

"I was determined to stay strong, to continue my mission, my purpose, and to turn things

around," she said. "I wanted to face my demons and finally take care of my heart, something

which I didn't do or never cared to do.

This was the topic of the talk when Pia was launched again as the face of Ultherapy at The

Shangri-La at the Fort Hotel last Sep 8, 2022. Hosted by Issa Litton, Pia shared the stage with

Dr. Ed Tolentino, FPPS and board-certified dermatologist, Dr. Irene Gaile Robredo-Vitas.

Reunited again as the 2022 ambassador for Ultherapy, Pia shared what it took for her to

overcome those challenges.

Psychiatrist Dr. Ed Tolentino shared a more current perspective, how these challenges have

been amplified with the pandemic and how people can help themselves to find ways to cope –

one of which is self-care.

Board-certified dermatologist, Dr. Irene Gaile Robredo-Vitas shared that she sees a lot of this

with her patients. When they’re stressed or want to relax, they go and get some me-time.

What’s important is that they see and feel the difference of the treatments they get. That’s why

they keep on going back for Ultherapy. With more than 2Million treatments worldwide with over

95% patient satisfaction one year after treatment rating, Ultherapy is the only non-invasive

ultrasound treatment that allows you to SEE below the skin’s surface, promoting safe and

effective treatments. That is why Ultherapy remains to be the Gold Standard in skin lifting and

tightening on the brows, chin, and neck areas, and improve lines on the décolletage.

 

Merz Philippines, General Manager, Jorge Libanan, also shared the first ever aesthetic app in the Philippines, the Merz Aesthetic Serendipity Journey or MASJ MYSELF app, proving how the company continues to be driven by our purpose: To fuel confidence and help Filipinos look better, feel better and live better, now at your fingertips.

With Ultherapy’s new campaign #ALL IT TAKES IS U, it focuses on overall confidence.

The genuine and authentic Ultherapy can help you be Confidently U this 2022

As the world re-emerges from the challenges of the pandemic, it is time to face brighter days ahead with full confidence. Prepare for those face-to-face meetings, Instagrammable travels, and catch-up sessions with friends by having glowing and youthful skin with the help of safe, trusted, and proven beauty science. The latest trends in aesthetics point to a natural-looking and subtle ‘glow-up’ as they call it on social media. This year, it is all about looking relaxed and rejuvenated as people start to re-enter a more social phase in their lives. 

Global-renowned company Merz Aesthetics, which is best known as the makers of Ultherapy and other aesthetics products like Easy Adapt dermal fillers and Pure anti-wrinkle injections, discusses the latest beauty trends, innovations, and solutions in aesthetic medicine with local experts to help more Filipinos to transition to the new normal of 2022 through the ‘Confidently U’ campaign. 

Merz Aesthetics Philippines General Manager Jorge Libanan says that the campaign is brought by the reinvigorated demand for self-care and enhancements, with more Filipinos looking for ways to look and feel their best as they begin to face the world anew. “We partnered with top aesthetics doctors to talk about trusted treatments that are meant to enhance – not change – one’s beauty, and help more Filipinos know more about how to grow their confidence with the best in aesthetics and skin care technology.” 

 
Dermatologist Dr. Gaile Robredo-Vitas, MD discussed new bespoke skin solutions for different skin needs using Easy Adapt dermal fillers and Pure anti-wrinkle injections, to address the evolving needs skin needs of patients especially after the pandemic restriction have been lifted. “I think skincare has become a trend especially in the last three to five years as more people are becoming aware of the importance of loving the skin. This is evident in the amount of skincare products available out there and in my practice, I now have patients coming to me for consult just because they want me to help them formulate a skincare routine.” 
 
She adds that people are now transitioning to preventive treatments with patients seeking 
dermatological interventions early on rather than having to deal with the signs of skin aging once they’ve formed. “Another thing is that many come to enhance their features, rather than wanting to look like someone else, my patients want to look and be the best version of themselves.” Online personality Kathy Hererra shared her beauty journey. “My eye bags were starting to make me look older than my age, so I consulted with Dr. Robredo-Vitas. I was also curious about Ultherapy® and I asked her how it can help me.” It was through their discussions that she tried out Ultherapy® and she says that she is happy with the results. 

Real Matters 

The Ultherapy® treatment uses microfocused ultrasound imaging to deliver the precise amount of energy needed at the proper depth to ensure the best treatment outcomes when it comes to lifting and tightening skin. Dr. Jonathan Nevin Yu, MD says the Ultherapy® treatment remains as the Gold Standard in non-surgical lifting and skin tightening. “It is U.S. FDA-cleared, non-invasive procedure with real time visualization that lifts the neck, chin and brow, and improves lines and wrinkles on the upper chest. With three treatment tips of varying depths, one can specifically target the essential layers of the skin to achieve superior, natural-looking results that improve over time,” says Philippine Dermatological Society Fellow Dr. Jonathan Yu. “With the ability to see in real-time, your treatment provider can maximize the value of each shot delivered while ensuring safety.” 

To ensure safe Ultherapy procedures, Merz Aesthetic Philippines has likewise taken proactive and stringent measures to counteract the counterfeit treatments that fraudulently use the Ultherapy brand name. It ensures that patients are led to the authentic Ultherapy centers by sharing the different authenticity touch points like the machine emblem, authenticity seal, clinic certificate of authenticity, and patient certificate of authenticity. 
 
The 2022 authenticity certificates were symbolically awarded by Merz Aesthetics® Philippines GM Jorge Libanan and Sales Director Ludovico Perez Jr. to accredited partner clinics in an event held in Peninsula Manila, Makati City last June 23. The event also featured a workshop on marketing via online short-format videos held by digital marketing expert Gian Reyes, in order to help more Filipinos discover the benefits of an authentic Ultherapy treatment.  This is in line with the regional-led Ultherapy authenticity campaign entitled #RealMattersToMe, which aims to call out fake providers, highlight the risks and dangers of getting fake treatments, and ultimately prove why only the genuine and authentic Ultherapy can help you be Confidently U this 2022. 
 
There is no one-size-fits-all approach to beauty and to help Filipinos tailor-fit their aesthetic needs, has also featured its first patient loyalty app called the MASJ Myself App. The app features information about leading beauty treatments and their benefits. For a truly personalized touch, the Face The Journey Beauty Filter shows the effect of different types of enhancing treatments under the Merz Aesthetics® Serendipity Journey® (MASJ), such as the MASJ Enchanting Eyes which refreshes eyes for a desired natural look; MASJ Perfect V that redefines your cheek contour and chin projection; MASJ Flawless Angles for a contoured jawline and lifted chin; MASJ Luscious Lips for fuller and kissable softer lips; and MASJ Alluring Smile that lifts mouth corners for a happier and positive outlook.

Take away years off your face through Ultherapy

Who wants to stay young forever? Given the substantial amount of money and guts,  I for one would like to turn back time by trying the anti aging procedures like Botox and fillers, Thermage and now the non-invasive, non surgical facial rejuvenation, Ultherapy. It is by far the safest method as of this writing and has a lasting effect within a year, you can see the results after 2 to 3 months after the procedure or it depends on your collagen producing body.

Ultherapy is a safe, non-surgical ultrasound treatment that counteracts the effects of time and gravity on your skin. Ultherapy uses the body's own regenerative response to gently and gradually lift skin on the eyebrow, under the chin and on the neck, and smooth lines and wrinkles on the décolletage.

Ultherapy is a process that involves and produces new collagen. The treatment relies on your body's own collagen-building process for younger, looking skin.

The  “Natural Youthful Skin Through The Beauty Of Sound with Ultherapy" was launched last July 17 at Le Jardin, the event was hosted by Ms. Angel Jacob and graced by Drs. Hsien-Li Peter Peng, M.D., Venzo Viceral, M.D., Z Teo, M.D. and Ronaldo G. Elepano III, M.D.

(Two of the best ) panel of doctors who were present during the Ultherapy launch;

Dr. Peter Peng is a board certified Dermatologist and the Director of Dr. Peng’s Dermatological , Cosmetic and Laser Clinic (P-Skin professional Clinic) in Taiwan.

He received his medical education at the National Defense Medical Center in Taipei, Taiwan, before completing his residency at the Department of Dermatology, TriService General Hospital in Taipei.

Dr. Z Teo on the other hand is a doctor husband to his equally famous celebrity dermatologist wife Dr. Aivee Teo, According to his bio, Dr. Z Teo,  completed his basic medical training at the University of Glasgow, United Kingdom.  Dr. Z Teo took a keen interest in medical aesthetics. After witnessing the clear physical and psychological benefits when principles of wellness and beauty come together he decided to pursue medical aesthetics as his main practice focus. Dr. Z Teo trained under the mentorship of regionally renowned cosmetic surgeons and dermatologists with the aim of perfecting his skills.

Dr. Z Teo believes in enhancing his patient’s appearance and improving their body image using minimally invasive non-surgical methods. Dr. Z Teo’s approach is based on fully understanding his patient’s needs, goals and lifestyle before he proceeds to recommend the appropriate treatments.


Ultherapy requires no downtime, however, before the procedure, let your doctor do some test on you or discuss what you would expect after the treatment.
