Aesthetician for a reason Marlou Colina makes dreams come true

One can never be too old to be vain. At 56 years old ( proud of it), I have no plans whatsoever of going to an aesthetics salon for enhancement. Until Marlou Colina.

Whenever I see someone who has obviously done something to his or her face- invasive, or non-invasive alike, I would tell myself, this person is insecure and no not me! I will never resort to such treatments. But when I met Marlou, things changed. Because I saw how honest he is as a person. And, how he really wants to make everyone beautiful inside and out.

Before I let you see my transformation, get to know more of Marlou.

RE-SHAPE

This treatment protocol brings you back to your throwback photos where you don’t see those fine lines, wrinkles, and loose skin. Facelifts are now possible with advance state-of-the-art treatments that need no surgery. We call it the “lunch-facelift”.

Fight Melasma

Melasma is a discoloration of the skin and can cause dark spots on the face. Melasma is a common skin problem among women in the Philippines. It causes brown to gray-brown patches, usually on the face.

It has a significant emotional impact; such as feeling bothered, frustrated and embarrassed, and depressed about their skin appearance.

Most just “COVER” their face by:

Putting Makeup
Applying dangerous peeling solutions
Putting substandard creams
Doing self-medication
