The Program
"Manila's two premium districts — Makati and BGC — are 20 minutes apart by car. A full-day program can combine the best clinic in one district with the best spa in the other."
9:00 AM — Clinic consultation and treatment. Morning is optimal for aesthetic clinic appointments — doctors are at peak focus, clinics are quieter, and you have the full day ahead for results to settle. Book The Aivee Clinic (Salcedo, Makati) or Luminisce for Botox, Pico laser, or HIFU. Allow 60–90 minutes.
11:00 AM — Coffee and recovery. Salcedo Village has excellent coffee at The Farm or nearby Flock café. Post-Botox or post-laser protocol: no intense heat, no direct sun, no pressing the treated area. A cool café environment is perfect.
12:30 PM — Lunch. Makati's Legazpi Village or Salcedo options: Wholesome Table, Vask, or the farmer's market if it's Saturday. Alternatively, transfer to BGC for lunch at Hole in the Wall (High Street) or Rick's Café.
2:30 PM — Spa treatment. Transfer to Shangri-La BGC (45 min, book a 2-hour treatment) or Mandarin Oriental Makati (15 min, book a 90-minute session). The combination of clinic in the morning and spa in the afternoon is the established Manila luxury beauty sequence.
5:30 PM — Recovery and refresh. Hotel spa pool or lounge access (available at both Shangri-La BGC and Mandarin Oriental). Post-spa, post-treatment skin looks its best in the evening light.
7:00 PM — Dinner. BGC: Lusso, Palace Pool Club, or Ramen Nagi for Japanese comfort. Makati: Ninyo, LJC Group venues. End the day with the full Manila luxury circuit complete.
"The clients who get the best experience in Manila are those who treat it as a full day — not a rushed clinic appointment. When you combine the right clinic in the morning with a good spa in the afternoon, the result is genuinely unlike any beauty day in Tokyo or Singapore."

5 years coordinating luxury beauty days for expat and medical tourist clients
For First-Time Visitors
Hotel recommendations: For Makati luxury beauty days, Mandarin Oriental or The Peninsula Makati are optimal — adjacent to the Legazpi/Salcedo clinic zone. For BGC, Shangri-La at the Fort or Seda BGC put you within walking distance of every major BGC clinic.
Booking timeline: Top Manila clinics (Aivee, Luminisce) book out 3–7 days in advance for popular time slots. Hotel spas (Mandarin, Shangri-La) can usually accommodate with 1–2 days notice. For a planned beauty trip from Japan, book clinic appointments 2 weeks ahead.
Language: All clinics and hotel spas in this guide have English-speaking staff. Aivee and Luminisce in Salcedo have experience with Japanese clients — Japanese language assistance is available informally at some clinics, though English-only is the formal operating language.
Currency and payment: Major credit cards accepted at all clinics and hotel spas. For cash, BDO and BPI ATMs are widely available in both Makati and BGC. Clinic prices are in Philippine pesos; at current exchange rates Manila beauty days are significantly more affordable than equivalent programs in Tokyo or Singapore.
