Dermatologist Guide Thread 13- Dermas pretending to be patients, stay away!

^  That's her clinic #

[tealover]

is dra martires connected with skin house?  research her and the clinic comes out 

[vanity fair]

I go to both Skin House & to Dra Martires.  She's not connected with Skin House.  I tried googling her.  Wala naman.  The articles posted by Skin House has a tag on her probably draw readers.  Dra Martirs used to work for another clinic before she put up her own pero sure ako na hindi Skin House.

Hi! Anyone who can recommend a good dermatologist in Makati Medical Center? Or anyone near makati? Thanks!

[frustratedneurotic]

hi, I'd just like to share my experience with MDP Derma Plus. Akala ko nung una mura lang sila kasi hindi naman central yung location and consultation is a bit cheaper. It's located in Cubao (21st avenue) not Araneta Center. I think yung mura lang dito is 500 na pimple injection it is for the whole face. Pero if paisa isa lang it is 150.

Anyway, I've never spent so much on a first visit before and I thought dati mahal na yung mga derma na napuntahan ko.

Here is what I had to pay:
Services:
Consultation - 400
Pricking - 1800
Pimple injection - 500

Products
AHA Wash - 1365
Acne Lotion - 577 - a combination benzoyl and erithromycin
Toner - 775 (this is only about 500 or 600 sa other derma na napuntahan ko) - combination of clindamycin and salicylic
Epiduo - 1400
Tetralysal - 94

I did not buy all the products kasi meron pa ako. Pero I spent almost 5000 kahit hindi ko binili lahat.

The dermatologist is okay I guess. Nothing different about her approach. I found it odd that she asked me what my skin type was when I didn't have anything on my face, not even powder.
She prescribed the same products as the other dermatologists I've tried.
The clinic is small and cramped. Okay lang naman siya it's clean. The doctor's kid hangs out there din.

I'm quite scared to try this all at once kasi parang andami lang. Baka maging super sensitive na skin ko.

I just wanted to share this para hindi naman magulat yung iba sa prices if they go there.

I hope someone could suggest a derma na hindi naman masyadong malayo at mahal.

Sisssses! Can you recommend a good derma around Taguig? This is for my friend. I mentioned my doctor, Dr Martires, kaso ang fear niya is baka di siya makacommit sa pagpunta kasi mejo malayo sakanya. Thanks!

Visited Dr Nelson Lee's clinic. I liked it na hindi sya mukang yung type ng derma na uubusin money mo sa mga products and services nila. He gave me few meds lang that I need and just recommended their jet peel if gusto ko lang daw mapabilis effect ng meds. Very affordable magpaalaga ng skin kay Dr Lee. So far ok ang skin ko with him, though over 1 week palang since I started. I've just gone through major flaking with his products. Ok na now considering I previously had uncontrollable acne, ngayon halos wala na, 2 dark spots nalang sa chin area hehe.

[Gaysha]

yes mahal talaga ang laser

Revlite in Aivee teo clinic- 8thou
V beam in St lukes QC- 15thou (100shots pang whole cheeks lang yan)
IPL in Belo or Makati med- 5,600+
Excel V in Aivee Teo- 10t

per session yan. and we need several sessions. mga 4 to 6. depende sa skin. pero promise, poreless at artistahin skin ang effect.

mahal magpaganda!

How much na kaya ang mga procedures na to ngayon from those clinics?

[buchakikay]

@IamCessy -sis I highly recommend Dr. Jasmin Jamora. She's my derma for 4 years now. Went to different dermas (including dermas that were mentioned here), siya lang nakaayos ng skin problems ko (acne, psoriasis, scars, severe dandruff, thinning hair, etc).

Her sched in makati med is every monday and wednesday 10am-1pm or visit her in Skin Clinic (Batangas St. Makati).

But call her clinic first to check before visiting, kasi may times na wala siya.

[katniss]

^hello sis! how about your acne scars? how are they?

what procedures does she have when it comes to making pantay yung acne scars?

can you  please PM her number?

Hi Ladies,

Other than going to the derma, there are other ways to age gracefully. Read all about it here: http://www.femalenetwork.com/fashion-beauty/beauty/prevent-premature-wrinkles-a1240-20170708

Hi! ANyone who can suggest a good derma for TCA peel sa face? My derma before was Doc Mike Chua of Imperial Derma. Pero puro glycolic peel lang pinagawa ko sa kanya so I have no idea if okay magpa-TCA sa kanya. I had TCA peel before (4-5 yrs ago na yata) kay Dra. 6F Foronda in Makati and okay naman siya. Kaso sobrang layo sa place ko since I'm from QC pa.

Hope you can suggest good dermas na around QC or kahit hanggang Ortigas/Pasig. Wag lang talaga Taguig/Makati. I need it for maintenance lang sa face and acne prevention

[Gaysha]

^try to DIY na lang. Madali lang naman. Gastos lang pag sa derma pa to. Many are doing it themselves including me and it is so easy.

[ireneeey]

^thanks dear. Sent you a PM

Hello! Recently tried Revlite for face sa Skin House and I am super satisfied sa result. I also had facial, diamond peel din on the same day.
I found out na meron din Revlite sa selected branches ng Skin101. Baka may nakapag try na. Mas cheaper kasi ata dun. Any feedbacks?

Medyo pa-rant lang, nagpa-check ako kay dr. rina del moral sa medical city in waltermart mu?oz para sa dandruff ko. She asked me kung anong shampoo ang gamit ko, sabi ko yung gugo shampoo na nabibili sa watsons. Pinagtawanan ba naman ako. Tapos nagmamadali rin sya kasi may ibang patients sya for warts removal, syempre mas malaki bayad sa kanya. Wala naman kwenta yung nireseta nyang gamot. Di naman na-control ang dandruff ko, mabuti pa yung nizoral. Di na ako umulit sa kanya.

[LisaSupe]

forgiven don't be so sensitive nalang din.  most dermas are in a hurry, if you did not have to wait too long to be accommodated, consider yourself lucky.  try nizoral once a week to control dandruff and use human nature conditioner. its organic so its so much better sa scalp.

[forgiven]

LisaSupe:
Ang unprofessional lang nya kasi, magtatanong tanong sya kung anong shampoo ang ginamit ko tapos tatawa sya. di naman ako nakikipagbiruan. Patient ka ba nya o ikaw si dr. del moral? Alam mo, marami na akong na-encounter na doctor, pati ENT sa medical city sa pasig, nagmamadali rin sya pero maayos naman ang treatment. Kaya wala akong reklamo dun.

Kay dr. del moral, pinagtawanan na nga ako, hindi pa effective ang nireseta nya tapos ang mahal pa. Buti sana kung okay, mapapalampas ko pa yun.

Saka di lang naman ako nakakapansin na may ganung klase doctor na hindi man lang na-check up nang maayos basta makapagreseta na lang.

Hi, just want to share my experience with the ffg:

Corderm- ok sya nung 2015 pero ngayon OA na sa mahal belo level na. Tapos yung derma nagpprescribe sya ng isotret oral which is a no brainer for acne. Akin bumalik after 6 months😞 Pero mababait staff dun at yung doctor. Hiyangan lang talaga din kaya i decided to look for another options. Di na kasi tumatalab mga meds na pamahid nya sakin.

Nellie Yu- i tried her hoping na ok kasi ok naman mga reviews sa kanya pero jusko nadissapoint ako sa facial nya. Less than 30 mins lang haha gulat ako eh na tapos na pala and di ko nafeel kamay nya ha infer ang gaan. Pero i was expecting na thorough pagprick nya nun pala mga malalaki lang kaya mabilisan lang. tapos ang mahal pa ng meds. nya tagaan din😞 So di na ko bumalik haha naka-isa lang ko. Pero ok yung acne cream na binigay nya infairness nakakadry talaga ng acne. Pero yung pagprevent waley din. Di din ko nahiyang.

Luminisce - i was expecting to be treated as VIP as mentioned in some reviews pero waley! Walang water or tea na inalok haha baka pang-artista lang. pero ang posh ng clinic nila ha. I was expecting to meet doc kaycee din pero nakamaternity leave pala sya. Yung doc na kumausap sakin, overview lang ng acne diniscuss. She didnt even bother to check my face. Generalized agad. I still went through the procedure kasi andun na ko eh. My gosh, it was the MOST PAINFUL facial ive ever experience in my entire life! I swear ang sakit! Wagas diinan ni ate! Although nagsosorry sya kasi nakikita nya siguro na im in pain haha pero di na ko uulit kay ate jusko pulang pula ko till now. Parang feeling ko sya makakabutas ng face ko! Tapos yung coquille peel saglit lang pala nilalagay sa face as in 1 minute lang then rinse and it is before the pricking. Despite that, i still bought some of her meds. Nacurious ako sa adventurine cream nila pagtingin ko tretinoin lang pala haha! Sana tumalab kahit pano. I think il give it another shot kung maganda epek sakin. Magrequest nalang ko na iba magprick sakin. Pero kung waley din. Not worth the price eh so never mind. Overrated lang sila coz of their advertising in ig and fb.

May iba pa ba kayo masuggest if ever na pwede ko try?😞

[lmoe2312]
