Your Cinderella Moment
Makati City, Quezon City, Pasig City
I am the first daughter of Dr. Vicki Belo, a Doctor to the Stars and founder of the Belo Medical Group. I am also wife to my loving husband Justin Pitt, an Australian hotelier. But most of all, I am a shrewd businesswoman at the head of the Belo Essentials skin care line under The Intelligent Skin Care, Inc. Alongside my mother, I've helped sustain the growth of the Belo Medical Group empire. I work to continue my mother’s own vision of “[making] the Philippines the most beautiful country in the world, one person at a time.” I'm bringing you to the fairy godparents behind the beautiful faces on-screen, so you too can have a Cinderella moment. After all, only Belo touches our skin.

Tiño has suit-making down to an art! They bring tradition and a creative spin to each piece, fit perfectly for its wearer. For the sartorialist who prefers something more indigenous, Tiño also honors the Barong Tagalog (a traditional dress shirt made of pineapple fibers). Whatever the next occasion is, set to match with a dapper suit.

From Weight Management and Botox to Hair Removal and Skin Lightening, the Belo Medical Group goes a step beyond getting you comfortable in your own skin. The Glycopeel Cleaning followed by the Revlite Laser Treatment is a must! The 45-minute Glycopeel Cleaning extracts what people in the business call “comedones”, little bumps that form from blocked pores. It’s not the most relaxing of procedures, but the clean feeling after is well worth it. After a rigorous cleanse, the 15-minute Revlite Laser Treatment minimizes the pores and rejuvenates the skin. In just an hour, you’re good to go!
