Dra. Vicki Belo revealed that it was actually her very own insecurities that drove her to be a beauty expert.

She told Iya Villania and guest host LJ Reyes, “'Yung 'storya ng Belo Medical Group talagang it was built from my insecurities kasi number one, adopted ako at tsaka nung five years old ata ako, nasa school, napakataba ko.”

Because of her own experience of being bullied for her imperfections, it has become Dra. Vicki Belo's mission to help people deal with their own insecurities.

During her Mars Pa More interview, the beauty expert also emphasized that the ultimate goal of beauty enhancements is not to totally change your appearance.

Dra. Vicki underlined, “Ayokong-ayokong mapalitan 'yung face mo. Like naiirita ako 'pag may mga nagdadala ng picture. Kasi ngayon ang pinakagusto nilang kamukha si Heart Evangelista. 'Yan ang peg ngayon ng mga tao.

She also adds that for her, the best beauty enhancements are the ones that people barely notice.

“Pero ang pinakamagaling na enhancement is when people don't know. 'Di ba? They just say 'Something's new with you. What happened?'”

Dra. Vicki also calls out people who discriminate people who have beauty enhancements done on their faces and bodies.

“Usually the people who judge are people who are so beautiful, they don't need anything, or 'yung mga ayaw magpagawa, so jina-judge nila 'yung mga nagpapagawa. For me, that's discrimination.

“Dapat whatever makes you happy, basta hindi ka naman nakakasakit ng ibang tao, gawin mo for yourself. That's what you call self-love, 'di ba?”

In the same Mars Pa More episode, The Clash Season 3 Grand Champion, Jessica Villarubin, also imparted words of inspiration for those like her who want to become a better version of themselves through beauty enhancements.

The singer recently unveiled her new look after undergoing beauty enhancement surgery.

Jessica said, “Kung ano man po ang gusto ninyong gawin sa sarili n'yo, do it. Gawin n'yo. As long as it makes you happy, as long as it makes you confident, as long as--'yon nga--wala kang sinasaktang tao, kasi 'yung importante naman 'yung sarili mo, paano mo mahalin sarili mo.”
