Beverly Hills 6750 Unveils a New Logo

Tuesday, May 3rd, 2011

With the upcoming launch of its new branch in Quezon City, Beverly Hills 6750 is once again positioning itself as Asia’s premiere center for excellence in multi-specialty aesthetic services. Its new logo design echoes the institute’s expertise, tradition of high quality service, and dedication to its clients.

Each color in the logo represents the different values espoused by Beverly Hills 6750. Black symbolizes constancy and commitment. BH 6750 seeks to communicate the credibility of its professional team and the dependability and excellence of its services, as well as its pledge to provide client-centered services based on trust, respect, and clinic competence.

White represents the institute’s ideals of sincerity and transparency to the clients when it comes to each service, product, and treatment flow. It also refers to genuine honesty and open communication between the clinic and its clients. Likewise, white symbolizes the institute’s standard of cleanliness and hygienic ambience. Beverly Hills 6750 prides itself in maintaining hospital grade services while providing a homey, pleasantly comfortable and cozy ambiance for its clients.

Gold epitomizes the sophistication and class of the luxury aesthetic clinic. It also stands for the institute’s pursuit of technological knowledge, and the continuous personal and professional growth of the staff through education and opportunities. Above all, it is a symbol of kindheartedness – the staff’s attitude of generosity and compassion for clients.

The gold rings are an assurance of Beverly Hills 6750’s worthiness of trust, while the intertwined elements exemplify the unity of all stakeholders toward one goal: positive transformation.

The new logo debuts this summer as Beverly Hills 6750 renews its commitment to Beauty, Health, and Wellness for all.

Beverly Hills 6750 Multi-Specialty Aesthetic Institute is located at 11th Floor, 6750 Ayala Building, Ayala Avenue, Makati, Philippines. A new branch is opening this summer at Timog Avenue, Quezon City. For inquiries, call 893-8888 or text 0917-893-6750, or visit the website at www.bh6750.com.

The Beauty of Business

Monday, April 25th, 2011

One of the usual staples in a balikbayans’ homecoming itinerary, aside from the requisite family reunions, shopping and sun bathing in Boracay, is a trip to an aesthetics clinic for beauty and physical enhancement procedures. After working hard abroad, spending time in a beauty and wellness center is tantamount to a luxurious and cherished time-off, Filipino expats reason out.

“Indeed, there is so much market potential in the global Pinoy,” says Dr. Eduardo Santos, managing director of Beverly Hills 6750, a multi-specialty aesthetics institute located at the 6750 Building on Ayala Avenue, Makati. “In fact, 30 percent of our clientele are Filipinos who are based abroad.”

Given this huge prospect, Beverly Hills 6750 is all-revved up to bolster its market share by marketing to Pinoys abroad, especially to Filipino-Americans who are reeling under the impact of rising medical costs in the U.S.

EXPANSION

With the goldmine market of global Pinoys as an identified market, Beverly Hills 6750 is poised to conquer this market having perfected its service culture over the last 4 years of its existence.

“This May 2011, we are increasing our capacity by opening a new branch in Timog Avenue to cater to clients in Quezon City and nearby areas,” discloses Santos.

The multi-million-peso facility promises to bring new technologies and machines not found in other facilities in the country. They include solutions for beauty problems on skin rejuvenation, weight management and body contouring, hair loss, body whitening, anti-aging and new proprietary techniques in cosmetic surgery.

MAJOR, MAJOR INDUSTRY

The huge premium bestowed on good looks has made the business of beauty and wellness a worldwide phenomenon in the last decade. Yet, the competition is stiff because the pressure comes not only within the local beauty industry, but also from regional players like Thailand, Singapore and India

’’In India, for instance, business grows at least 30 percent every year and is expected to reach a whopping $1B in revenues by 2012. No need to mull over the price advantage: dental, eye, and cosmetic surgeries in Western countries could cost three to four times as much as in India,’’ Dr. Santos says.

The same is being said about hospitals in Thailand, which boast of medical professionals educated in the US and Europe. Last year Thailand projected to have earned at least 36.4 billion baht ($1.06B) from treatment seekers. Along with very attractive prices, their medical centers also boast of interpreters for over 22 languages.

Along with the Department of Tourism’s efforts to promote the Philippines as a premier medical tourism destination, things are looking up for the country’s beauty and wellness sector. “For any industry to thrive, it has to have support from the government and other agencies and partners,” says Dr. Santos.

The irony, Dr. Santos said, is that local Class A-B Filipinos believe they can get better medical care in so-called more advanced countries, and yet here we have patients from Australia and Europe, for example, coming to the Philippines because of the quality of ‘beauty care’ we provide.

Beverly Hills 6750 prides itself in its professional staff. “We have an impeccable list of doctors who represent the ‘the stars’ of the medical profession,” BH 6750’s director muses. Thus, he said, their clients are assured of professional service and quality results.

Dr. Santos stresses that expertise is very crucial to be able to attract patients from other countries.

More Than Just Beauty: Dr. Abe Marinduque

Wednesday, December 29th, 2010

Hush is a word not needed by Dr. Abe Marinduque. Twenty years of practice, rigorous training at the Laser Vaginal Institute of Los Angeles and his share of celebrity as an aesthetic surgeon has made him an outspoken advocate for empowered sexuality and beauty. As cosmetic gynecologist and Medical Director of Beverly Hills 6750, he pioneered the groundbreaking BH Gynesthetics procedures in the Philippines.

A personal mission

Away from the limelight, Dr. Abe, as he is known to all, takes his advocacy to a deeper, more meaningful level – a personal crusade for women’s reproductive health. In the Philippines, where the mortality rate is dismal due to inferior healthcare systems, lack of availability of medicine, and poor delivery of health services, it seems a monumental task.

Yet Dr. Abe is determined. He tirelessly works with the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA, formerly the UN Fund for Population Activities), going to provinces and far-flung areas to perform tubal ligations for free in the communities. In his first year of medical missions, he has made the rounds of Ifugao, Isabela, Samar, and Surigao.

“I’ve met people who have six to eight children and are very hard up in life. Some of the patients I’ve had waited so long to have someone help them,” he says.

In one mission in Ifugao, he recalls, “a woman I had performed surgery on embraced me and it felt so good. It’s an awesome experience. It compensates for everything – the tiring work, the long trip, operating for morning till night.”

Challenges faced

In a country where Catholic sentiment is strong, advocating contraceptive methods is largely taboo, and heated debate on the proposed Reproductive Health Bill is ongoing, Dr. Abe is perplexed at the state of affairs.

“What’s curious is that in Rome, where population growth is low and the economy is good, birth control is not an issue. However, in the Philippines, where there’s poverty and the population growth is high, it’s a big issue!”

Dr. Abe leads the Philippine General Hospital’s Family Planning Department, and is in talks with other doctors in the Family Planning Consortium under UNFPA to organize a Family Planning Society for training, research, and delivery of family planning methods.

“We plan to invite organizations and individuals who practice and advocate family planning in the Philippines,” he explains. He adds that he hopes to talk with Health Secretary Dr. Enrique Ona regarding better coordination of family planning organizations in the Philippines.

The power of choice

When asked about his personal view on family planning methods, Dr. Abe answers, “What I want is for people to be able to consider their choices. My stand is that people should examine their conscience. If they have the resources to take care of more children, go ahead.”

Does the choice include the ultimate choice, then? He emphasizes, “I’m not for abortion; however, there are other options. They have free will. All they have to do is exercise it.”

Indeed, this is the same perspective that Dr. Abe brings to his practice at Beverly Hills 6750. He says, “The advocacy is very empowering; it helps women take control of their body and their lives.”

If encouraging people to weigh their options is tough, Dr. Abe is realistic in his expectations: “You cannot save the world. It’s one woman at a time.”

Asia’s New Aesthetic Destination: Manila

Tuesday, December 21st, 2010

From Asian Traveler Magazine

Beverly Hills 6750 (Multi-Specialty Aesthetic Institute) continues to fulfill its mission to benchmark the standard and level of advanced aesthetic services in the Philippines. It’s esteemed position within the industry is a testament to the viability of the unique propositions of the business namely: high caliber professional staff, advanced technology and innovations, hospital-grade facilities and a strong commitment to patient safety, personalized service, quality results and value.

In keeping with its promise of service excellence and innovation, Beverly Hills 6750 is introducing three new services that will surely pique the interest of savvy beauty and wellness enthusiasts.

Breast Enhancement Scarless Technology® (B.E.S.T.®)

Also known as transumbilical breast augmentation, BEST® is the latest exclusive surgical innovation offered at Beverly Hills 6750! This is performed using the latest in endoscopic technology to make one’s breasts fuller and enhance body shape.

Advantages. Traditional breast augmentation methods require an incision and a resulting scar — usually either at the bottom crease of the breast, around the nipple or in the armpit. During Breast Enhancement Scarless Technology® (B.E.S.T.®), the breast implants are inserted through a small incision at the upper rim of the belly button and tunneled beneath the skin of the abdomen, using endoscopic technique, up to the area of the breast. The result is a fuller breast and enhanced contour with no scars on the breasts, a quicker recovery and less risk of sensation changes in the nipples and breasts.

Le Parisiene Duo-Lift Facial

QuadTech Duolift Expert. Using the new Advance Derma Method (ADM) of combining multiple technologies in one treatment, the Le Parisiene Duo-Lift Facial integratees vibratory soft peeling, ultrasound massage and stimulation, luminology (photodynamic light therapy) and vacuum drainage massage (called “Palper Rouler”). Together with the technology is the use of proprietary French cosmeceuticals for each specific phase of the facial treatment. The results are instantaneous skin clarity, tightening and a youthful refreshed glow and look!

These procedures in turn are coupled with proprietary French cosmeceuticals that are cleansing, anti-aging, whitening and regenerating.

Disease Susceptibility Gene Test

The Disease Susceptibility Gene Test is now available at Beverly Hills 6750!

Gene testing now allows an individual to know one’s susceptibility to more than 100 disease conditions — 25 cancers and 75 medical and metabolic conditions. Medical research and science indicate that while most diseases are determined by BOTH genetic constitution and various environmental factors, getting a heads-up on one’s disease susceptibility through gene testing can impact on how one manages one’s nutrition, weight, exposure to detrimental environmental substances and conditions and clinical decision- making.

Disease susceptibility genes are detected from tissue samples that are taken from the mucosal lining of the mouth and then shipped out to an international laboratory. An international laboratory that participated in the Human Genome Project — Genetic Center Company Limited is at the forefront of this entrepreneurial genomics business. Using gene biochip technology, DNA analysis is done and derivative information in identifying genes that underlie common, genetically complex diseases (“susceptibility genes”) are determined.

Beverly Hills 6750 is located at the 11/F Ayala Building, Ayala Avenue, Makati City, Philippines. Call +632.893.6750/+632.893.8888 or visit www.bh6750.com for more details.

Essential Ingredients in BH6750 Natural Dietary Supplement

Tuesday, October 26th, 2010

Beverly Hills 6750 has released a natural dietary supplement that contains L-Glutathione, Alpha Lipoic Adic, Vitamin C, and L-Carnitine, which are all ingredients helpful to the body. Let’s take a look at two of its most essential ingredients – Glutathione and L-Carnitine. What are the main effects of these two and how are they beneficial to the body?

Let’s start with Glutathione. Glutathione is a small protein made of three amino acids called cysteine, glutamic acid, and glycine. These ingredients aid in detoxification of harmful toxins by binding them and transforming them into a form that can be flushed out through the urine or bile. It also boosts the immune system by producing fighter cells known as B and T that can prevent sickness and diseases from developing.

Another important effect of Glutathione is its prevention of the activation of tyrosinase. Tyrosinase is what causes an overproduction of melanin, which can cause skin darkening and uneven pigmentation. Since the BH6750 Natural Dietary Supplement contains Glutathione and Vitamin C, it can reduce melanin production or divert the pigment synthesis from a black pigmentation to a red or yellow pigmentation. The overall effect will be that of a whiter and more even skin tone.

Glutathione also contains anti-oxidants that control the damaging effects of free-radicals. Free-radicals are known to cause aging. By acting as an anti-oxidant, the BH6750 Natural Dietary Supplement prevents these free-radicals from damaging the cells and helps slow down aging in the process.

The BH6750 Natural Dietary Supplement also has L-Carnitine. This compound is an important dietary ingredient that aids in the burning of fatty cells and converts these into sources of energy. L-Carnitine is essential when undergoing a diet program and exercise routine because of its ability to transform fatty acids into an ingredient that will breakdown fat and produce energy. It also increases fatty acid metabolism, so it can be used as an energy nutrient.

Through these two main ingredients, Glutathione and L-Carnitine, the BH6750 Natural Dietary Supplement indeed answers the growing need of consumers to maintain a healthy and youthful appearance. It not only addresses the problem of a dark skin tone and obesity, it also slows down the aging process and keeps one healthier overall because of its anti-oxidant properties. You can’t go wrong with the BH6750 Natural Dietary Supplement.

Finally, the Winners of the Beverly Hills 6750 Make My Day Anniversary Contest!

Wednesday, October 20th, 2010

We really were blessed by everyone who sent in the four things that made their day. Indeed, it’s the simple things that transform our day.

After a tough day of picking the winners, and taking votes over and over again (this is why it took us so long to post), here are the winners to our Facebook and Twitter Make My Day! contest.

A BIG thank you to all of you who made our fourth year of Beauty, Health, and Wellness a smashing success. Fabulous treats from Elizabeth Arden, Marriott Hotel Manila, Beverly Hills 6750, and more await these winners!

Blanca Santos Dela Cruz

Dear Beverly Hills 6750, the four things that make my day are:
  1. Going to work. I love my job which is teaching. It brings me in the company of kids and kids at heart (my co teachers) which can pass up as natural beauty enhancers. They give me that youthful glow that can only come from sheer happiness of being with th…em everyday.
  2. Getting my one hour workout (which is actually just walking non stop along the street in front of our house) I love it because it has become my “me” time where I sometimes pray, dream, plan and imagine. It is the only time where I let my thoughts run freely. Usually after that, I never felt so good.
  3. A tight hug and kiss from my hubby that can melt all the stress and tiredness away leaving me only with a bounce in my step and a silly smile pasted on my face.
  4. That gentle little voice calling me mommy when she is unsure of something, when she has questions in her mind or when she has nice stories to share. =)

Breast Enhancement Scarless Technology® (B.E.S.T.®)

Friday, September 17th, 2010

Innovative Belly Button Breast Augmentation Surgery

Breast Enhancement Scarless Technology® (B.E.S.T.®) also known as transumbilical breast augmentation (TUBA) is the latest exclusive surgical innovation offered at Beverly Hills 6750! This is performed using the latest in endoscopic technology to make one’s breasts fuller and enhance body shape.

Advantages. Traditional breast augmentation methods require an incision and a resulting scar — usually either at the bottom crease of the breast, around the nipple or in the armpit. During Breast Enhancement Scarless Technology® (B.E.S.T.®), the breast implants are inserted through a small incision at the upper rim of the belly button and tunneled beneath the skin of the abdomen, using endoscopic technique, up to the area of the breast. The result is a fuller breast and enhanced contour with no scars on the breasts, a quicker recovery and less risk of sensation changes in the nipples and breasts.

Technique. Breast Enhancement Scarless Technology® (B.E.S.T.®) is usually performed with local anesthesia and IV sedation. Numbing medication is administered so that patients can feel pressure, but no pain, in the area of surgery. Under sedation, patients remain conscious but are sedated to the point of a light sleep.

A starburst-shaped incision is made at the top rim of the belly button, leaving only a small scar inside the navel’s upper rim. The surgeon then uses an endoscope fitted with a surgical camera to create a channel from the incision to the tissues behind each breast. A tissue expander with a long fill tube is inserted through the channel, positioned over the chest muscle (subglandular) or partially under the chest muscle (subpectoral) and filled with either saline or air to expand the breast pocket. The expander is filled to approximately 1 1/2 times the volume of the permanent implant to create a pocket large enough for natural movement.

After the breast pocket is sufficiently expanded, the tissue expander is deflated and removed. The empty breast implant is rolled up, inserted in the same manner as the tissue expander and filled with saline water. The breast implants can be placed over the chest muscle (subglandular) or partially under the muscle (submuscular). Implants placed over the muscle create a more distinct cleavage and a more rounded appearance to the breasts. If the implants are placed under the muscle, the breasts are usually less rounded with the upper portion of the breasts having a more natural shape.

Once the implant is in place and filled, the surgeon uses the endoscope to examine the implant and check for bleeding. The incision is then closed and a small bandage applied. The entire surgery usually takes from 45 to 60 minutes.

This is an outpatient procedure.

Breast Implants. These are medical devices that are used during breast augmentation to enhance the size and shape of the breasts. Breast Enhancement Scarless Technology® (B.E.S.T.®) is performed using saline breast implants because they can be rolled up and inserted through the narrow channel created by the endoscope before being filled with saline water. This type of implant is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Saline breast implants are available in a variety of sizes, profiles, shapes and textures. The options as to which implants are to be used is best discussed with the surgical team so that size choice and breast implant style can be determined in order to meet one’s goals for breast augmentation.

Recovery. After BEST® breast augmentation, patients are able to return to the comfort of their home after spending time under medical supervision in the recovery room.

Though complications are rare, they can and do occur, as with any surgery. The biggest drawback is that the BEST® incision usually can’t be reused if an implant

must be revised or removed due to a complication, requiring an incision at the breast crease or around the nipple. There is also a risk of changes in sensation, though this risk is less than with other breast augmentation methods.
