The MMK treatment

Feeling too young for botox? Do you prefer natural based products instead of chemicals? Then this might be interesting for you!
MMK – or Multi Mineral Complex is a homeopathic based multi mineral complex that is good for your skin!
It is injected subcutaneously with a tiny meso therapy needle, feeding your skin.
Leaving it smoother, healthier , with a radiant glow,  AND preventing wrinkles.
Sadly it doesn’t take away already existing  wrinkles -for that you still need botox. But hey! Prevention is more important then fixing the problem.
It’s also perfect for your cleavage or -decollete which is a part often forgotten.
It’s for men and women from 18 years and older. -Yes guys it’s good for you too!!

The first 2 sessions are done 15 days apart, then you continue maximum once a month or whenever you feel like getting your vitamin cocktail.
The procedure is very quick, easy an not too painful My pain level is not so high, so I find it a bit stingy ,but others claim they hardly feel it. Vitamins in general tend to leave a litlle burning sensation when injected.
It’s very well combined with a facial. The facial that is offered with these MMK shots include;
 *a facial cleansing with propolis milk
 *a scrub with a special coffee & honey blend (cafeine works wonders for fatigued skin)
 *and an aloe vera mask you can leave on and will soothe your skin after the injections. 
All products are natural.

For men and women in Colombia and other countries in South-america it’s like getting a pedicure.
I have heard the same about countries like ; Indonesia.Thailand, Turkiye and even China. And now it’s available in the Netherlands as well.Cost per treatment starts at €51 and if you keep an eye on my Facebook page and Twitter you will find discounts, promotions and offers from time to time.

Calibelleza Beautytours


Plastic Surgery High season has begun. When autumn starts, more and more people are getting back to their normal day’s life and seek beauty treatments before Christmas starts. We get a lot of requests for plastic surgery in this period from people from all over the world.
Calibelleza offers 3 different kind of packages; The easy, VIP and Beautytours!
Today we are talking a bit more about the beautytours.
Beauty tours are the number 1 most sought package deals, and Calibelleza is the first and only one to offer these beautytours to clients!
A lot of people are terrified of travelling alone, let alone travelling to Colombia. Many times I have gotten the question: “Is it ok to bring my; friend,husband,wife,boy or girlfriend,kids,mom -and yes, even dad”? Sure! Bring who you want to bring,  BUT know this; It’s not going to do ANYTHING for your recovery..
Well maybe just get you more stressed out. Because who you are bringing a long is going to be bored and you are going to be in pain.
Leaving a lot of frustarations, doing NO good for your recovery.
So you’re thinking;”Hmmmm okay….But still I do not want to go alone”.I understand that and with you a lot of other like minded people. Wanting to go-but not alone. My solution? A beauty tour!

What is a beautytour?
A beauty tour is when I connect you with other people wanting plastic surgery and we -yes we-will travel all together in small groups to Colombia so that I can guide you from the beginning ,which starts at the airport, and get everything prepared for surgery, untill you are leaving to the airport again where I will make sure you are comfortably on your flight back home. We do this in small groups and everybody is going through the same thing creating a bond which often lead to lifetime friendships. In a small period of time you will; laugh and cry toghether. And when you are feeling somewhat better we can take trips to the mall,restaurants or cinema.

For who is a beautytour?
Beautytours are for people who are hesitant to travel alone to Colombia.Alsofor people that don’t speak spanish.Sadly to say, in Colombia they speak hardly english meaning that if you don’t speak Spanish you can feel quite alone.

When can I book a beauty tour?
Beautytours are held about 3 times per year. On the website we will anounce the dates.
if you have a friend or family member that wants to undergo a procedure as well then you can initiate a beautytour on the date that is convenient for both of you.
On tour I am there to translate most parts for you, making sure you get what you want. So the pro’s of beauty tours are many and that’s why they’re so popular.

Do you see yourself joining?

Hair Mesotherapy


Hair Mesotherapy

Hair mesotherapy is to stop hair loss and achieve healthier and stronger hair growth, this treatment is done by introducing medicinal products directly at the scalp using fine needles for it.
The use of Mesotherapy for hair loss achieves very good results in those who still retain the folic pilose as injected drugs act on these, increasing blood circulation and regenerating them for hair growth to occur.

Of what consists hair mesotherapy ?

Micro needles are inserted into the scalp drugs such as vasodilators, vitamines and trace elements(oligoelements).
Mesotherapy sessions can last about half an hour, depending of each person's particular problem. The complete treatment can last up to 8 months to a year but the results can be seen at 2 months.

Who can have the hair mesotherapy treatment?

Both men and women who suffer from hair loss, thinning, fine or weakened hair. This type of treatment offers faster results if performed early.
We reaffirm that hair mesotherapy is only beneficial to people who still retain the follicles and hair will not grow on people that are totally or partially bald.

The vampire facelift


Platelet-rich plasma, the ultimate in aesthetic medicine


This is one of the most modern techniques of cell bioremediation, which uses the profits of platelets. It is ideal for those patients in which cellular aging is marked and have slowed cell turnover.

Our body is a set of cell groups that are constantly changing minute by minute. Our aging cells are changing at every moment, so much so that our body is never the same as throughout the year, millions of cells are being renovated with new level of all tissues without us even knowing.
Platelet Rich Plasma or PRP is one of the most modern techniques of cell bioremediation using our platelet properties thanks to a substance known as Growth Factor (CF) which is a biological mediator through which are a series of effects at the cellular level (stem cells) promoting cell turnover and regeneration. This is a key development especially in those patients in which cellular aging is marked and have slowed cell turnover.
The difference from other products used in antiaging medicine, is that autologous platelets are elements ,belonging to our body, unlike other substances that are natural or artificial. So that we ourselves are the source of cellular bioremediation which has many advantages, starting with the fact that we are an inexhaustible source of this resource, as we produce (platelets) at every moment.


Who are candidates for this treatment?

The use of Rich Plasma or PRP is not only limited to those who need or seek some kind of antiaging aesthetic treatment, but rather its use extends to the treatment of orthopedic conditions, to Phlebology, dentistry, maxillofacial surgery, ophthalmology, among others.


How many sessions are needed?

The number of sessions is directly related to the desired effect and the tissue obtained on which it acts. Thus for antiaging treatment in which looking skin resurfacing conducting a session every six months is enough.
If the objective is to strengthen the hair growth on the other hand to break his fall, we recommend a monthly session for a period of three months. Treatment effects are evident between 20-30 days after the application and maintained over six months to a year.

What is the right age to do so?

It is proven that the therapeutic bioregenerativa using Platelet Rich Plasma, accelerates tissue repair aged or affected by certain injuries without risks or side effects. There is no specific age for access to treatment, but a necessity of restoring cellular and tissue repair. Treatments can be of a preventive in patients younger or restorative in older patients.


How is the treatment performed?

Extracting a certain amount of venous blood according to the needs of the treatment, which is placed in a centrifuge by which plasma is separated from blood cells in sterile tubes with a stabilizing element and is activated using plasma fraction . The same is subsequently injected into the areas you want treated by mesotherapy technique.


What are the expected effects?

* Facial Rejuvenation (Anti-age): the application of Platelet Rich Plasma cell stimulates skin regeneration, especially basal layer keratinocytes and fibroblasts and stimulates the production of glycosaminoglycans, collagen and elastic fibers necessary to replace the affected structures. This results in increased skin thickness, which leads to a smoother and elastic skin.

* Treatment of alopecia: hair follicle stimulation by infiltrating the scalp of Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) so intradermal or subdermal, promotes angiogenesis (new blood vessels) local giving your hair more strength, more volume and stopping fall physiological processes. It is also used as a complement and reinforcement in those patients who have made a capillary microimplant as it locally stimulates collagen, favoring the implementation of the new hair.

* Treatment of cellulite: One of the main causes which generates cellulite tissue development in the body, is the alteration of the microcirculation in the tissue, with a corresponding decrease in oxygenation thereof Platelet Rich Plasma stimulates microcirculation of the tissues affected by the arrival of more oxygen to the cells, producing an improvement in those areas of the body that have cellulite. Moreover alteration skin connective tissue characteristic of cellulite, significantly improves the stimulation of collagen and elastin, which causes platelet enrichment (PRP).

* Treatment of striae: The presence of streaks as a result of the rupture of the elastic fibers of the skin and reduction of skin collagen, can be treated by the Platelet Rich Plasma, as it is a contribution bioremediation autologous tissue which promote the generation of new collagen and elastin, causing a dampening effect on the skin striations.
