The Wellness Complex wasn\’t hard to find as it was located along the road within the same compound of Medical Center. Or maybe I was too familiar with the place that I know exactly where to spot the Spa?
It was a bit nostalgic as I crossed the Times Street in Las Piñas, UPHD was my dear alma mater where I finished my 4-year degree, 12 years ago.
The last time I personally saw him is when we graduated waaay back, year 2003! And the last time I went here at Las Piñas is when I processed my diploma and TOR to be redribboned.
I was asked to fill-out a form for my personal details and medical history before proceeding to my facial and ultralipo treatment.
My Facial and ultralipo was done by Ms. Bianca, a registered nurse. I have to say that the facial massage was good, compared to other Spas I\’ve been to. The smooth and circular strokes made me want to try their full body massage to be done by a therapist.
During Facial, I asked Ms. Bianca to adjust the steam for I am wearing my contact lenses, the steam was continuously used while she perform the cleansing steps. I was told \’na hindi daw mahihirapan ang magpi- facial sa akin\’ because I don\’t have acne-prone skin. Actually, I seldom opt for a facial treatment, feeling ko kasi mag oopen lang ang skin pores, and I don\’t really need it, not unless I have visible and deep blackheads that I can\’t handle.
After she apply the collagen mask, she told me that we can start with the ultralipo while letting the mask sit for 15 minutes. I instruct her to focus on my flabby belly. As she pressed and rubbed the area, I heard a ringing sound. As explained, the sound waves means fats are being zapped on a certain area where she puts the hand pressure, literally, nabingi ako sa fats ko! =)
I asked what\’s the difference between Mesotherapy and Ultralipo, she answered that Mesotherapy treats unwanted fats thru medicine injection on targeted areas, thus brings instant and visible results. And they packaged the two treatments to make it more effective. The Price? it\’s PhP15,000 for 5-visit Meso plus 5-visit Ultralipo. But still, treatments alone cannot suffice your goal to have that \’beach bod\’ you still have to maintain proper diet and exercise.
When I told my husband that they offer a package of Meso plus Ultralipo for only 15k, he excitedly exclaims, \”Wow! talaga?\” (Uuuy… gusto! hahaha…)

As we nearly finish the 15-minute Ultralipo, I felt like rushing to the toilet to pee! As it expected to excrete the broken down fats through urine and feces. But then I managed to wait until we finished our facial with vacuum suction to close the pores and rinse off.
Bianca reminded me NOT to have cold drinks all through out the day and NOT to do workout or hard exercises.
After Facial and Ultralipo, I am ready to get my full-body massage. Ms. Victoria toured me at the Spa, and show me the single and couple rooms for body massage service. I love the privacy and relaxing ambiance, there\’s even a room with shower and sauna.
I wasn\’t able to see all of the eight massage rooms, but seeing some of it makes me instantly want an hour of massage. And hey, I can even try their body scrub for a complete relaxation and beauty treat!
After seeing the couple rooms, I changed my mind not to avail the full body massage at that time, but chose to tag along the husband on my next visit.
I personally suggest that they should came up with membership card to provide discounts for their loyal customers. She explained that their marketing dept. were already taking care of this matter.
