"Push Your Best Self Forward" with Difflam

Thursday, July 06, 2023



Today seems a good day to have a fine voice and remain fruity. Our friends from Difflam lozenges bare good news about a recent clinical study done by University of the East Ramon Magsaysay Memorial Medical Center showing how the antiseptic throat lozenges alleviated sore throat done on COVID-19 patients. This study was led by Dr. Jennifer Nailes the VP for Research together with a team of medical experts and was done on infected Filipino COVID-19 patients who had sore throats. 

Jason Carroll the Managing Director of iNova Pharmaceuticals says "Difflam has been the most doctor prescribed sore throat brand in the Philippines and today in clinical studies with experts in their fields ensure consumers who suffer sore throat pains be taken cared of in this time of a different normal. We hope Difflam can make you pursue your best, welcome to this session."

Dr. Ramon Jason Javier one of the Clinical Investigators presented the paper and says "This research was funded by iNova and hopes to identify the time of total resolution of throat pain in COVID-19 patients. It must have fast action and prolonged sustained effect with the use of over the counter Benzydamine + Cetylpyridiun or Difflam lozenges for patients 12-60 years old. All patients were consulted with their attending doctors through appointments or telemedicine sessions. Patients were instructed to take 1 every 1-2 hours, max 12 per day for 7 days along with prescription medicines. They were instructed to take it until time of no recurrence of odaynophagia. These were 146 subjects, of where 96% of them were also vaccinated, 76.2% of which have no comorbidities. Much of them didn't experience sore throat on the 5th day, of which some getting relief as early as 60 minutes similar with the Difflam Gargle Study."





The gist of this is shorter duration of symptoms, leading to you having less pain, less days in confinement, to eventually go back to normal which is important at this day and age. It's effective, safe and manufactured well (quality). This is an important medical update people should know especially that it has evolved since ECQ was enforced, the vaccine development has been also fast, but we still need to be vigilant, to stay safe, while we do minimum health standards and relax a bit and keep our lifestyle in check every day.

Skincare by Stelton Dermascience

Friday, July 05, 2019




Felt the urge to run to a skin Care clinic and wellness center because I didn't use sunscreen last month during a Palawan trip. I absolutely loved paradise, but I looked like matchstick all red on my face while the rest of my body was fine. I would have opted for a facial but that wasn't much of an option because it's only been a month before I visited Stelton Dermascience. They actually advised me to scrap that idea (because of obvious reasons) but they had the heart to recommend to me a treatment that would fit what I want to happen, they call it the Hydrajet Facial.




I admire how they did this... and asked me about my skin condition. Other clinics would have just told me to lie down and do it but they knew how it would have hurt my skin if they did that. The skin consultation made me do the right decision. Realistically speaking, that alone was a nice step to solve my discoloration. Men don't usually have a sane knowledge on why we should take care of our skin, it's why I always advise some of my closest friends about what they should do (when I can) without going overboard and hurting their feelings too. Maintenance is a must and I do seldom do this because I have my own regimen at home, but if it needs expert help, I don't hesitate to do so.




I have mixed skin conditions, some parts are super oily while the others are dry. I always moisturize at home but it wasn't enough to see my face look burnt and it differently colored than my neck and those covered in clothes. The Hydrajet Facial was so comforting, it felt super refreshed and cold while they were doing it. Cold stuff tightens the skin but the air/water combo with it cleans the skin surface. They have different appicators on the machine while putting in serums I needed to not just lightly exfoliate but to nourish the skin.






It felt quite good and I almost slept during the whole thing. I loved the third part with the cold handle, they smothered my face with a concoction using that tool then started to prepare my face with light therapy. I didn't get to see it as they covered my eyes but I took decent photos.





The last step had a Vitamin C serum and I was advised not to wash my face for about 6-8 hours which I obliged. 



They also pushed Gluthathione on me with Vitamin C so I get nutrition inside, it only took a few minutes to do that.





They have different machines and specific rooms for facial procedures. They didn't also Have mirrors on it for light therapy procedures they needed to do. Everything is well thought of, including the skin procedures they need to do to your skin. 


Let me just put it out there, MEN need proper skin care and you absolutely need to maintain it. If you would want to look like a prune early then don't, but just like what I tell my friends, if you want to look good, feel good and be seen better by your peers, your loved ones, you have to do your part and take care of it. Although Stelton Dermascience recently opened this branch at the 2nd Floor of Ayala North Exchange in Makati City, they have years worth of experience in skin care catered for men and women. Backed by teams of dermatologists, aesthetic doctors, plastic surgeons, registered nurses and highly trained aestheticians, you can be sure you get services that you need when you need it. Procedures that need doctors are also scheduled and done by appointment so as to not put in danger their clients, a good practice in my books.


You should at least do maintenance work once a month so you don't have to worry, you deserve all the pampering you get from this place because it is affordable, it need not be expensive to take care of your skin. They also have anti aging procedures and laser treatments for those who need it, I'll try that next when I go back to Stelton Dermascience, they've got Skin Science Mastered.

Cetaphil Celebrates 70 Years of Healthy Skin

Wednesday, May 17, 2017



Did you know that there's one bottle of Cetaphil sold every minute? Crazy right? Well this gentle skin cleanser has been around since 1947 and knows how people have been having problems with the skin. It has answered how to basically make the skin normal again, it has always been the goal. As Galderma General Manager Raghavendra Sadashiva says "We have a great heritage of providing skin care that is gentle enough for all skin types which is why we have been winning awards for over 70 years. This has been scientifically tested and we're also launching it in the new packaging plus a new Cetaphil Baby Range which will cater to those that have special needs. It's proven by three generarions!"



Edric and Joy Mendoza has 5 kids and they've all been taken cared of by Cetaphil. They didn't just appear in the commercial just because their skin is good but they have always been teaching their kids about obedience and how it brings blessings to their family. They teach patience from age 9 and they say it's an honor and privilige to be part of something personal for them. They have used it before it was offered to them.



Now it has helped millions of people here and around the world, with good reason. I am so thankful for seeng a lot of my friends and family to have felt the touch, the healing just by using Cetaphil. 

They really know what they're doing, they know the science of gentle.
