To make the Philippines the most beautiful country in the world, one beautiful person at a time – that is the Belo dream.
And this dream continues to find fulfillment each time Belo opens up clinics, therefore opening the doors to beautification in the unique Belo way.
Belo Clinic opened its newest branch at SM City Clark on Wednesday, December 14. The opening event had celebrities, fashion stylists, political figures and notable personalities in attendance.
During the brief message delivered prior to the ribbon cutting ceremonies, Belo Medical Group CEO, Dr. Vicki Belo said that she opted to open a clinic in Pampanga because patients from the north have been consistently clamoring for a branch close by.
The ugly duckling
Belo recalls how she, as a child, was given up for adoption. “I am Kapampangan but I was adopted by the Belos.” Questioning why she was given up for adoption, she then thought it may have been because she was ugly. “I was able to dream of making people beautiful so that they can be loved and not given away.”
Belo believes the SM City Clark branch as “one of the prettiest” ever opened and acknowledged Budji+Royal for the architectural design.

The man behind the woman
Belo also expressed gratitude to her husband, Belo Medical Group managing director, Dr. Hayden Kho Jr., for being fully supportive of her as she continues to conquer the aesthetic universe by opening additional clinics and constantly innovating its services.
In 2013, Belo Medical Group became the first ambulatory clinic in the country to have been given international accreditation by the National Accreditation Board of Hospitals and Healthcare Providers. It was re-accredited in 2016 and, to this day, is the only clinic in the Philippines to have received this recognition.
The Belo Medical Group continues to be the top medical aesthetic ambulatory clinic in the Philippines. After opening the first branch, which was a 44-sqm clinic in Medical Towers, Makati, there was no more stopping Dr. Vicky Belo and the Belo Medical Group, pioneering many beauty breakthroughs such as liposuction, surgical and non-surgical procedures, lasers, and more.
Belo is the first aesthetic clinic in the Philippines to offer Picosure, Lutronic GENIUS, Thermage, ADVATx and more.
With its state-of-the-art aesthetic offerings, Belo paves the way for each client to become better versions of themselves by bringing out their beauty from within.
Indeed with Belo, it is possible for the Philippines to be the most beautiful country in the world, one beautiful person at a time.
