Who will be Mariko's image model?

MANILA, Philippines - The picture is a painting of a Japanese beauty which aptly stands for the series of treatments at Mariko Tokyo Skin & Body Centre (The Science of Japanese Dermatology) which is the newest beauty clinic to open in the Philippines.

Very soon, the painting may be replaced by the picture of Mariko’s image model and, as Funfare has gathered, one of those being eyed is an international beauty-queen-actress who is engaged (daw!) to be married to an athlete-actor.

Any day now, the owners of Mariko will hold a press conference among movie writers (said to be effective in spreading the good word about beauty/skin care and some such “enhancements”) and, who knows, the identity of the Mariko image model might be finally revealed.

Mariko specializes in the finest and carefully formulated skin and body treatments perfected in Japan, designed for “the woman who is committed to stay beautiful at any age.” The Japanese, both male and female, are noted for their smooth, flawless skin. Mariko is practicing the beauty tradition of Japan that has a long and ancient history with spa culture dating back to 737AD when the first mineral springs were opened for their restorative properties.

Among Mariko’s treatments that’s getting to be popular with its growing clientele is the Body Surgery-Free Fat Removal (Ultra-Cavitation Non-Surgical Lipo-Suction), at P8,880 per treatment, P20,880 for five treatments and P35,000 for unlimited (seven months) treatment.

Mariko has clinics in San Juan City, Quezon City, Makati City, Pasay City, and Mandaluyong City. (For inquiries, call landline 519-7527 or celfone 0921-9758888.)
