This is the best decision that I have ever made in my lifeTumisang, South Africa, 29 06 19

I was involved in a car accident at the age of 5 years and was left with horrific facial scarring. At 25 now I grew up with very low self-esteem and even lower confidence. I tried most of the scar "removal" creams available and other treatments with no results, I had lost hope that I would find a treatment that would reduce my scarring. I found Advanced Skin Solutions online and I set an appointment with Dawn. She was very sweet, patient and professional, I was worried about the expenses of the treatment but I found that it is very reasonably priced and my first consultation was free of charge. This month is my second micro-needling treatment and the results I see have exceeded my expectations. This is the best decision that I have ever made in my life and I am truly blown away by the results so far. If you are looking for a reasonably priced clinic, that will show serious results I suggest that you look no further and come to Advanced Skin Solutions. Thank you very much for giving me my confidence and self-love back.

Really a dentist I could trustIngrid, South Africa, 03 08 20

I had one of the very best dental experiences in years and I am from Pretoria! I would like to bring each of my family members here to be treated by Dr Landsberg. He works very softly and gave me options to keep my painful tooth instead of just extracting it. And he gave me the advice to rather have my tooth extracted by a specialist should the infection not clear up since it is a tricky tooth! Really a dentist I could trust!
