Ageless beauty
MANILA, Philippines - There’s an increasing number of Filipino doctors who are staying abreast with new trends. One of them is Dr. Francis Decangchon (photo) of the newly-opened Asian Center for Ageless Beauty (located at the second floor of the La Breza Hotel along Mother Ignacia St. in Quezon City, a stone’s throw from EDSA and the ABS-CBN compound).
A graduate of the UST College of Medicine and a practitioner of cosmetic dermatology for years, Decangchon has branched out into what is known as regenerative or anti-aging medicine. Although it might sound like medical mumbo-jumbo, it’s not: All it is, at its core, is a simple and straightforward theory that has been studied by experts and is now beginning to come to light.
Decangchon explains that during the ’50s and ’60s, those who wanted to stay young had to resort to radical measures that involved invasive procedures. Of late, however, the emphasis has shifted to minimally-invasive, less invasive or, in some cases, non-invasive ways of staying young or ageless.
The Asian Center for Ageless Beauty is one of the few clinics pioneering in these kinds of treatments. One service it offers that has generated a lot of interest falls within the area of regenerative medicine, which is the “in†thing in Europe and the US.
