PLDT HOME Bro just launched Ultera, a TD-LTE-powered high-speed wireless Internet connection with speeds of up to 10 Mbps.

I wanted to see (or should I say, imagine?) how much I could do with the PLDT Home Bro Ultera while doing my nails, so I put myself into a self-imposed imaginary fast test challenge. :)

Here's my reference:

Now, let's begin.

FAST TEST CHALLENGE #1: Remove my nail polish and imagine how many YouTube videos I can download with Ultera Basic at 3 Mbps

I was done removing my nail polish in 3 minutes and 20 seconds. I assure you, that is faster than usual.

With Ultera, I would be able to watch 10 3-minute YouTube videos already. Or I would be done watching the Emma Stone's hilarious Lip Sync Battle with Jimmy Fallon.

FAST TEST CHALLENGE #2: Paint my nails and imagine if I would be able to download a 2-hour SD movie

Of course, I used orange! :P 

Done in 4 minutes, 48 seconds! But that’s for my left hand only.

With Ultera, I would be almost half-way through in downloading a 2-hour SD movie. Meaning, if I get to finish painting all my nails, I will be able to watch a movie already right after. Sweet!

PLDT HOME Bro Ultera has the Teng siblings (Jeric, Jeron and Almira) as their new ambassadors and they can also show you an Internet speed that you can't beat. Watch their video here.

PLDT HOME Bro is currently available in three plans: Ultera Basic (up to 3Mbps), Ultera Max (up to 5 Mbps) and Ultera Pro (up to 10 Mbps).

     The Top 5 Procedures For Ageless Skin

Everyone wants to look younger and reverse the signs of aging skin,  but not everyone knows  you can actually skip surgery and the recovery aspect of an actual facelift with 5 non-invasive procedures that are guaranteed to turn back father-time. 

We asked Dr. Gary L. Marder, a certified dermatologist and medical director for the Marder Dermatogy and Skin Cancer Center in Port Saint Lucie and Okeechobee, Florida if surgery was the only option available to help reverse the signs of aging skin. 

But first what is aging skin? Premature aging skin consists of hyperpigmentation scars, wrinkles, crow’s feet, laugh lines and loss of collagen and skin elasticity.  Read further to discover Dr. Marder’s top 5 procedures for younger more youthful looking skin without surgery.

A Low-Maintenance Treatment

Try: Sunscreen.  A broad-spectrum sunscreen with UVA/UVB coverage does more than protect your skin from future damage; it reverses some of the present UV damage on skin. In fact, by using sunscreen it will actually help Non melanoma Skin Cancers retreat in their aggressiveness and proliferation.

Erasing Spots i.e Hyperpigmentation Scars

Try: Intense Pulse Light (IPL). Erasing age spots is one of the treatments IPL (a broad spectrum light that treats sun damage on the face, chest, and neck) does best. After a series of several treatments, skin will look more youthful and firm. What is the number one product that will help you maintain your newfound post-IPL glow and prevent future spots? You guessed it: sunscreen.

Firmer Skin

Try: Ulthera. A non-invasive FDA approved procedure that relies on ultrasound therapy to tighten, tone, and lift skin. It’s not permanent, but for the right patient, they get great results.

Diminishing Discoloration and Fine Lines

Try: Chemical Peels. For fairer skin types, chemical peels are perfect for helping to lighten age spots and smooth wrinkles and fine lines. For olive or darker skin with discoloration, bleaching creams work well.

Smoothing Out Wrinkles

Try: Botox and fillers. They give immediate results by diminishing the appearance of both fine lines and deep wrinkles. Though these injectables are not permanent, you can actually look younger within minutes.  Inquire about the “Liquid Facelift”.

By using a combination of professional services and age appropriate skincare you can avoid the scalpel and look 10 years younger while you’re at it.
