The beauty industry is fast-paced and ever-evolving, and everyone wants to be the pioneer of a new discovery or service – but a slow burn worked for Belo Medical Group, the Philippines’ pioneer in aesthetic medicine.

Case in point? The freshly opened Xiglo clinic, Belo’s first regenerative aesthetics and wellness clinic, is mainly focused on precision longevity. 

Located on the 11th floor of 1 Proscenium at Rockwell, it is the latest reflection of Belo’s long-standing medical expertise and world-class care, spanning skin health and aging, focus and sleep, weight management, performance and recovery, women’s health, and men’s health.

“I’m sure you’re wondering, ‘Why did Belo only get into this now?’ Because there have been a lot of people who’ve been doing longevity for a few years,” Dr. Vicki Belo herself said during the launch event. 

“The reason we did it only now is because we’ve been researching, we’ve been studying, and we really don’t do anything halfway. We want to make sure that everything is science-based,” she said, explaining how they’re the only clinic that has partnered with the experts in longevity – this includes the Asian Hospital and Prof. Dr. Dominik Thor, the president of the Geneva College of Longevity Science, who serves as Xiglo’s international medical advisor.

Backed by science and careful planning

“I know a lot of doctors, hundreds that we train; a lot of them are actually afraid of their patients nowadays because they come in with tons of ideas. They have peptide stacks put together by AI, they have their trackers, they have their Oura Rings, they have all that information,” Dr. Thor said about longevity, and the quest to make sense out of everything to create a meaningful journey. “I’m happy to say that Belo really has a mission of bringing that together in a responsible fashion[…]”

He added, “Longevity is integrative; there are so many components that are important: lifestyle, psychology, and obviously, there is a medical component to that, too. And we need great people that guide us.”

Regenerative wellness should naturally go hand in hand with aesthetics. This is also what Belo Medical Group CEO Gina Lorenzana highlighted: “Xiglo by Belo Medical Group is all about outer radiance meeting inner vitality[…] Because what good is it that you look great on the outside, but you actually feel bad on the inside?”

“But more than just a feeling, this is not just about wellness. Because wellness is something that you can feel inside you, right?” she said. “What we’re talking about in Xiglo is something different. We’re talking about precision longevity.”

Lorenzana also stressed that enjoying the clinic’s benefits doesn’t mean a one-time fix. If anything, they’re focused on the continuity of care – whether their patients are in their 20s, 40s, or whatever age group.

“As we take care of our patients on the outside – to give them something and make them feel beautiful, look beautiful – we also want them to feel good on the inside. Not just because of confidence, but also what’s happening biologically, inside their bodies.”

Ultimately, Xiglo values individuality; acknowledging that each person needs a specific set of treatments or interventions.

Dr. Belo explained, “We’re going a level up in terms of longevity. We want to make sure, the first thing to do is to test you properly: Your GlycanAge, your methylation age, etc. Because if you don’t know where you’re going, how will you get there? […] We don’t give a one-size-fits-all for everybody because that’s not the way.”

A sacred space for wellness

This personalized and doctor-led approach is powered by Xiglo’s roster of experts waiting in the clinic: OB/GYN doctors, orthopedic surgeons, specialists in women’s and men’s health, urologists, and precision longevity medicine doctors. 

While Xiglo offers so much to explore, the clinic itself never feels overwhelming. Its space feels intimate, calm, and almost sacred. Thoughtfully separated areas offer privacy at every step, so even the most personal parts of your visit feel discreet and entirely your own.

The Xiglo team itself revealed that in strategizing the location, they considered many people’s concerns about feeling shy about walking around the mall after undergoing treatment. 

The entirety of the experience is tailored to a fuss-free environment. For privacy and discretion, Xiglo operates on an appointment-only system, with a dedicated personal concierge ready to escort each client from arrival to exit – no walk-ins allowed.

The journey to holistic care happens through these phases: comprehensive assessment; understanding of results; creating a personalized wellness plan; and progress monitoring and support.
