Metro Style Avignon Pampanga Opening

<p>Spark, radiance, and luminosity—for someone who often visits Central Luzon, mainly because of its many beautiful destinations, finding a reputable aesthetic clinic can be quite a struggle. Fortunately, this renowned celebrity go-to aesthetic center has finally opened its newest branch at <strong>SM Pampanga</strong>, extending its rejuvenating therapies to people beyond the bustling business districts: “<strong>This time it’s Avignon</strong>.”</p><div><br/></div><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded" style="width:700px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1761128865626Avignon Pampanga 1.png" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded"/><span class="fr-inner">Avignon Pampanga with celebrity endorsers and founders</span></span></span></div><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/avignonclinic" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Avignon Clinic</a> invited us to an overnight getaway for the grand launch of its latest branch at SM Pampanga. We joined a guided tour through the clinic’s minimalist interiors, adorned with palettes of golden, silky wellness robes, glossy marble accents, and relaxing shades of brown. Afterwards, we were treated to our preferred procedures—enjoying soothing facials, contour-redefining treatments, and rejuvenating drips.</p><p>The following chapter of our Avignon Clinic voyage brought us to a tranquil stay at <strong>Nuan Farm and Resort</strong>, offering a quick and calming rest after the long drive. With surprises continuously unfolding, the aesthetic center treated us to a vintage-themed dinner at famed Pampanga spot Denlim’s Kitchen, delighting us with authentic Kapampangan delicacies.</p><div><br/></div><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded" style="width:700px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1761129103005Avignon Pampanga 2.JPG" class="fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded" style="width:700px"/><span class="fr-inner">The Avignon crew at Denlim&#x27;s Kitchen</span></span></span></div><p>The skin-flattering experience extended beyond the day of our media indulgence. The day after, Avignon Clinic welcomed star-studded celebrities for the ribbon-cutting ceremony, further solidifying its reputation as an elite aesthetic center. The event was graced by <strong>Marian Rivera, Barbie Forteza, Julia Montes</strong>, and many more beautiful and A-listers.</p><div><br/></div><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded" style="width:700px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1761129348546Avignon Pampanga Marian Rivera.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded"/><span class="fr-inner">Marian Rivera</span></span></span><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded" style="width:700px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1761130012404SnapInsta.to_566602194_18292981438282285_8011458435368450722_n.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded"/><span class="fr-inner">Marian Rivera and Julia Montes</span></span></span></div><p>During the launch, Marian Rivera told METRO about the very first treatment she tried at Avignon Clinic: “Ulthera,” she shared. Known for wearing multiple hats as a mother, artist, and businesswoman, the prime actress also emphasized how she continues to defy aging, effortlessly illuminating her own ring light at every camera angle, “<em>Syempre sinasabi nila, ‘kailangan nasa loob</em>,’ of course given <em>yon</em>; <em>pero syempre</em><em> kailangan din natin alagaan</em> ‘yung outside, which is <em>nandyan si </em>Avignon [Clinic] to take care of me,” Marian explained. </p><div><br/></div><div><strong>Avignon Clinic’s Exion Lift<br/></strong></div><p>As mentioned above, every guest had the chance to select their preferred facial treatment, and I chose one that would finally address my long-time concern–minimizing the appearance of my double chin. I took a chance and had it sculpted using Avignon Clinic’s Exion Lift, a contouring procedure that’s appropriate to my mid-20s age. </p><p>Compared to other treatments I’ve tried, this one involved absolutely no pain—literally a zero out of ten if I were to rate it. From the moment the machine touched my face up until the final glide across the gel, everything felt incredibly relaxing. Just a little advice on the heat (which is tolerable): if you’re someone with low heat tolerance, it might sting a bit, but not to the point where it feels like your skin is burning. But, more like a subtle sensation, as if the fat around your face is gently melting away.</p><div><br/></div><div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-2" src="https://www.instagram.com/reel/DQBhGDBk9eE/embed/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=540&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A2%2C%22os%22%3A27676210.299999997%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="881" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-2" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe></div><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><div><br/></div><p>When the aesthetic nurse finished the right side of my face, I noticed a slight difference; the contour looked more defined compared to the other side. To see a more visible result, we proceeded with the treatment, and afterward, the changes became even more noticeable, though not dramatically lifted yet.</p><p>However, the next morning, the results left me in awe; the edges of my face looked fully snatched, completely different from the round, fluffy jawline I used to have. I felt so confident taking photos, especially with low-angle selfies–all because that bothersome double chin and the unwanted fat around my jawline had visibly faded.</p><div><br/></div><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded" style="width:700px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1761130040463SnapInsta.to_562072652_18292981402282285_3231292497136385959_n.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded"/><span class="fr-inner">Beauty queens also graced the opening</span></span></span><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded" style="width:700px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1761130220895SnapInsta.to_566787308_18292803346282285_7301711496622385235_n.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded"/><span class="fr-inner">Avignon Clinic Pampanga is located at 2/F SM Pampanga</span></span></span></div><p>Indulge in a pampering session en route to your restorative getaway—visit Avignon Clinic at 2/F of SM Pampanga and experience premium aesthetic treatments as part of your rejuvenating escape! <em>Follow Avignon on Instagram </em><a href="https://www.instagram.com/avignonclinic" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>@avignonclinic</em></a><em> for updates.</em></p>
