Hi guys! Doc Paolo here! I’m an Age Management Medicine Specialist from Metro Manila. I wanna share you a story of my journey of how I got here.
I started my aesthetics journey when I was a teen. In college, I had severe acne and my mother would bring me to different dermatology and aesthetic clinics around Manila. It was a long journey, having visited several clinics, trying to find a doctor who can cure my acne. I had several facial and laser treatments, together with oral medications that eventually resolved my acne.
I took up Nursing in UST and went straight into medical school in the same university. When I became a doctor in 2019, I worked as an emergency room physician in Pampanga and Manila, when the COVID-19 pandemic hit the world and put all of us in lockdown. As a new doctor, it wasn’t how I imagined my career would start, experiencing the challenges that come along the duty of saving lives. Eventually, I realized that the ER was not the right place for me.
Two years back, with a background and experience in having aesthetic treatments, I decided to train in Medical Aesthetics under the program of the Philippine Science of Skin and Aesthetic Medicine. After graduating from the program, I worked as an attending aesthetic doctor in a multi-branch clinic in Bulacan for a year. Now, I am offering home-based treatments in the comfort of your home in Metro Manila and Siargao.
Fast forward to the present, I am now treating my mom and people like her who values giving time and taking care of herself. (P.S. This is my mom in the photo, taken at the beginning of my aesthetics career in 2023)
Join me on my journey to help everyone understand aesthetic treatments, self care, health & wellness. See you around!
