Don’t be surprised if you see someone suddenly sporting a much-improved version of themselves. And you can’t say it’s AI when you see the person up close. Chances are, they “got something done,” but perhaps done so well you cannot really tell.

“We are entering an era of undetected aesthetics — meaning more natural-looking aesthetics. That’s why natural boosters are more in,” Dr. Paul Francis Verano told DAILY TRIBUNE in an interview.

The co-founder and lead dermatologist at Renewplus Medical Aesthetics, a newly opened beauty and wellness clinic in Makati, added that there is a full spectrum of aesthetic treatments that range from dermatological procedures to high-tech lasers and body contouring solutions, all carefully designed to support natural results and overall well-being.

It is why he and businessman John Bilaos created in 2024 a modern sanctuary for those seeking subtle, effective beauty solutions, and their clinic on the second floor of The Lerato offers a holistic, cutting-edge approach to aesthetic care that centers on enhancing your natural features, not masking them. What’s unique to them is a menu of services, head to foot, that combine treatments to you give you the desired results suited to your needs.

Minimalist space that feels

like a sanctuary

Reflecting the clinic’s philosophy of simple yet refined beauty, the space is minimalist and calming, with wood accents and soft finishes.

The interior design was completed in collaboration with luxury surface provider Pieni, featuring Archi+ Pietra Intonaco in the reception area and Archi+ Argilla finishes in the restrooms — creating a serene space where clients can relax, recharge and glow from the inside out.
