Maker of pill for cellulite coming to RP this month

Dr. Gianfranco Merizzi, the Italian doctor who made Cellasene, the world’s first all-natural capsule for cellulite, will be in Manila for the first time this month.

Merizzi will be sharing new evidence that show how Cellasene addresses cellulite. The latest study was conducted by Dr. Leonardo Celleno, an established Italian academician who has published over 100 articles on dermatology and cosmetology in European journals.

Merizzi is a sixth-generation pharmacist born in Turin, Italy, who established, in 1986, the Sant’ Angelica Institute of Cosmetic Medicine which produces a range of products that take on beauty problems from a medical perspective.

In 1990, he founded Medestea Internazionale, a Turin-based company established to manufacture and market a range of highly effective products based on natural ingredients.

After creating products to combat weight gain, weak blood circulation and depression, Merizzi would go on to produce what would become one of its most popular product, Cellasene.

Members of the Philippine media met with Merizzi in a press conference in Turin in 1999. Two years later, it’s the good doctor’s turn to come over and reinforce Cellasene’s advantages. He will present the results of clinical trials conducted independently in various countries.

Merizzi, who races his own Formula One in his spare time, has a wide range of career achievements, such as involvement in research groups that develop natural, biological products and do scientific investigations into aging and diseases related to such condition.

Last July, he and two groups of scientists patented a special type of stem cell for the production of blood vessels and a new vaccine against HIV slated for market release next year.
