Aptly, Vicki Belo, 66, marks International Women's Day by telling women to be comfortable in their skin.
She wrote on Instagram, "66 never felt so good [emoji] stay empowered in your skin, #happyinternationalwomensday [emoji]"
That was not the only thing about her message.
To drive home her point, the skin doctor attached a photo showing her in a floral swimsuit that was taken in snowy Japan.
She completed her women empowerment attire with furry boots and black sunnies.
In the comments section of her post, Dra. Vicki's celebrity followers expressed their love and support for her.
Her husband, Dr. Hayden Kho, was among the first to comment.
He wrote, "Only Belo touches her skin, but only I can leave fingerprints. [emoji]"
Pia Wurtzbach, Maricel Laxa-Pangilinan, and Solenn Heussaff demonstrated their support with hands-up emojis.
On the other hand, Georgina Wilson, Rhian Ramos, Marjorie Barretto, Amy Castillo, and Max Collins filled the comments section with fire emojis.
Perhaps, posing for a photo in a swimsuit at her age and posting it for the public to see was also Vicki's way of expressing her defiance against ageism.
In September 2022, she became the butt of sarcastic remarks when she recreated on TikTok and Instagram Reels the looks of BLACKPINK in "Pink Venom" music video.
In an interview with PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal), Dra. Vicki brushed off the negative comments and reminded her bashers, "Basta enjoy lang po kayo kung anong gusto niyong gawin sa buhay.
"Hindi naman po nakaka-hurt kahit kanino. And huwag na kayo mag-bash ng kahit ano. Ageism is bad."
