By trailblazing and democratizing the industry, the Belo Medical Group made &quot;Belo&quot; synonymous to beauty. Decades later, it is poised to do the same for its next chapter: wellness and precision longevity. </p><div style="line-height:1"> </div><div style="line-height:1"><strong>XIGLO: Where outer radiance meets inner vitality </strong></div><div style="line-height:1"><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:960px;display:block" width="960"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/178693868793320260814090840_SYN_1176_v2.png" style="width:960px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"/><span class="fr-inner">Precision longevity starts with understanding you. <em>Photo source: Belo Medical Clinic </em></span></span></span></div><div style="line-height:1"><br/></div><div style="line-height:1"><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:960px;display:block" width="960"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1786938664633BeFunky-collage (1).jpg" style="width:960px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"/><span class="fr-inner">Precision longevity starts with understanding you. <em>Photo source: Belo Medical Clinic </em></span></span></span></div><p style="line-height:1">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 linked to inner vitality, and the Belo Medical Group stands at the forefront of this with XIGLO, the group&#x27;s first aesthetics and wellness clinic. Here, the approach to holistic beauty is not one-size-fits-all: It is physician-led, science-backed, evidence-based, and personalized to your own needs and goals. </p><div style="line-height:1"> </div><p style="line-height:1">&quot;We have wanted to move into longevity for a few years now, and the reason we did it only now is because we have been researching, we have been studying and we really do not do anything halfway,&quot; said Vicki Belo, Founder, Chairwoman of the Board, and Chief Medical Advisor of Belo Medical Group. &quot;We want to make sure that everything is science-based, so we have partnered with the experts on longevity.&quot; </p><div style="line-height:1"><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:960px;display:block" width="960"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/178693858393120260814090840_SYN_1670_v2.png" style="width:960px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"/><span class="fr-inner">Personalized care for beauty, wellness, and longevity. <em>Photo source: Belo Medical Clinic </em></span></span></span></div><p style="line-height:1">Located in Rockwell&#x27;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 personalized: by-appointment-only access and no shared spaces, with a dedicated personal concierge guiding you throughout the entire process. </p><div style="line-height:1"> </div><div style="line-height:1"><strong>At the Helm of XIGLO: Global Longevity Expert Dr. Dominik Thor</strong></div><div style="line-height:1"> </div><p style="line-height:1">The science is clear: looking your best is strongly connected to how well you are aging. Moreover, 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. </p><div style="line-height:1"> </div><p style="line-height:1">XIGLO&#x27;s clinical framework for precision longevity was created together with an internationally-recognized authority in longevity and regenerative medicine: Dominik Thor, founder and president of the Geneva College of Longevity Science, an institute of higher education dedicated exclusively to longevity science.</p><div style="line-height:1"> </div><p style="line-height:1">Thor co-directed the 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 United States, and is currently a visiting professor at the Mayo Clinic Center for Aesthetic Medicine and Surgery in the United States through Thor&#x27;s expertise, XIGLO paves the way for world-class, personalized precision longevity medicine in the Philippines.</p><div style="line-height:1"> </div><p style="line-height:1">&quot;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,&quot; said Dominik Thor, President of the Geneva College of Longevity Science and Belo Medical Group&#x27;s longevity consultant. &quot;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&#x27;s life.&quot; </p><div style="line-height:1"><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:960px;display:block" width="960"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1786938550891BeFunky-collage.jpg" style="width:960px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"/><span class="fr-inner">Personalized care for beauty, wellness, and longevity. <em>Photo source: Belo Medical Clinic </em></span></span></span></div><div style="line-height:1"><strong>The Signature XIGLO Experience: Private, premium, and personal</strong></div><div style="line-height:1"> </div><p style="line-height:1">When you deal with inflammation, hormonal imbalance, and metabolic fluctuations at the cellular level, it becomes visibly seen in healthy skin, hair, and body. </p><div style="line-height:1"> </div><p style="line-height:1">At XIGLO, you may expect to experience Belo&#x27;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&#x27;s and men&#x27;s health. </p><div style="line-height:1"> </div><p style="line-height:1">&quot;We listened to our patients, and what they were asking for changed,&quot; said Gina Lorenzana, CEO of Belo Medical Group. &quot;People still care about aesthetics, and we&#x27;re very good at that but now they are also concerned about what is happening on the inside. The number one thing we heard was sleep. People are tired, yet they cannot sleep. Then perimenopause and menopause hit women, and they do not have a place to talk about it. Men go through the same thing, and they will not even talk to their friends about it. These are not people who are sick. They are well, and they want to live longer. XIGLO is our response to that.&quot; </p><div style="line-height:1"> </div><p style="line-height:1">These personalized treatment plans are designed with a panel of specialists bringing in precise expertise to XIGLO: sleep doctor Jimmy Chang, the current president of the Philippine Society of Sleep Medicine; OB-GYN doctor Patricia Kiziler, a diplomate with the Philippine Obstetrics and Gynecological Society; orthopedic doctor JJ Pua, a member of the board of trustees of the Philippine Orthopaedic Association; urologist doctor PJ Fernandez, the current chief of Cardinal Santos Medical Center&#x27;s Department of Surgery-Urology; and precision longevity specialist doctor Rainier Mozo, the current president and CEO of Clearbridge Medical Philippines. </p><div style="line-height:1"> </div><p style="line-height:1">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 may 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. </p><div style="line-height:1"> </div><p style="line-height:1">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.</p><p style="line-height:1">Your new chapter in science-backed beauty, wellness, and longevity begins today. Book a private consultation at XIGLO by Belo Medical Group in 1 Proscenium, Rockwell.</p><div style="line-height:1"><br/></div>
