Grateful After 6 Inspiring Days in New Zealand
After spending six incredible days visiting clinics across New Zealand, and now continuing my journey in Australia, I want to take a moment to thank everyone who welcomed me so openly. It was truly special to meet so many dedicated professionals and experience the unique spirit of this Beauty Industry.
 
A heartfelt thank you to Margaret Walsh: your passion, drive, and dynamic energy are truly remarkable. I deeply appreciated your time, your insights, and the inspiration you radiate.
 
What impressed me most throughout my visits was how genuinely practitioners in New Zealand care for their patients. Education, safety, quality in treatment outcomes, and continuous innovation are really at the core of their daily practice. It’s wonderful to see such commitment to meaningful results and patient wellbeing.
 
At Sylton International, we are proud to support this vision. We will continue developing solutions for this industry, doing our utmost to contribute in the best possible way as we turn skin assessments into meaningful, digital, and engaging consultations that elevate the practitioner–patient journey. The increases in retention rates and sales that clinics experience after adopting Observ are amazing to witness, and it motivates us even more to keep innovating.
Feeling grateful, inspired, and excited for the collaborations ahead!

Thank you Monique Brilleslijper from in The Netherlands .

The dilemma of the seemingly satisfied client / patient !

Do you offer such fascinating skin knowledge on the functionality of their own skin that clients become your absolute clinic ambassadors?

These ambassadors ask your advice first and insist all of their friends come to your clinic.

Clients must be informed about their skin and the underlying causes of conditions that need a manager - their management team is you + client.

Clients must be listened to , seen , feel informed with skin science knowledge and guided through a Programme of results based care.

These ambassadors will want to purchase your “at home equipment “and continue treating their skin in a meaningful science based manner.

Thank you to Sangita , owner of for the use of her visual of her LED unit she offers her clients in clinic plus at home use.

Dear Clients /Patients -

Are you aware that “Every Skin tells a Story.”…and your skin story is unique and deserves a quiet one to one chat with a skin therapist.

Is this you ?
Do you look into the bathroom mirrors and see a plethora of dryness, redness, itchy bits, blocked comedones, and above all you long to return to a healthy glowing skin.

We both know that one cannot measure progress without knowing what the starting point is. Here is my February suggestion.

Visual Skin diagnostic devices are of huge importance for aka beauty therapist /skin care professionals who are serious about providing corrective skin care practices and results -driven retail solutions for each individual client .This summer book an OBSERV SKIN Analysis appointment to actually see and understand the science beneath your skin. .

Together, with your skin therapist search for, and establish science based, visual answers and solutions to your skin problems. Your summer skin may need immediate protection, repair, and regeneration that can be created by a result driven consultation process.

There are many types of treatment, to correct the different conditions, that are affecting all skin types.

The key is to recognise that “every skin tells a story”. This is your year ,2026, for all to explore the other way of looking at Skin and unravel your skin story and discuss the genetics and lifestyle that belongs to you and ask to have a tailor -made easy skin routine that becomes your annual skin care plan that is results driven -and one that you understand the WHY and the CAUSE of what you see looking back at your from that bathroom mirror.

Based on the visual skin information and skin health insights, a skin therapist can recognise the need for professional skin in-clinic treatments plus homecare regimes to deal to the concerns that are wanting solutions.

Be prepared for the clever OBSERV to showcase your before and after visual skin images to illustrate the efficacy of your investment of time into your skin.

No more fluffy facials or .

Let’s have this conversation the has been started by !

My thoughts ,as a business clinic owner for 30 years ,were always embedded in the level and philosophy of “the education and ongoing education “ that came with the brands I stocked in clinic.

I sold my last clinic 4.2 years ago and I enjoyed exclusivity.
I continued to import and distribute the devices and am now in my 12th year of distribution - my OBSERV enthusiasts always say it’s my education and knowledge of the device that allows them to say yes to adding this device onto their clinical setting.

In my mind I am very clear that a science based skin foundation style education is essential when stocking a clinical brand and I favour #2 on my list 🩵 .

Where do you stand as a 2026 business owner ?

1. Total exclusivity in clinic.
2. Online behind your code for your clients only
3.Open to all online
4. In selected retail stores only that have skin therapists as consultants
5. Available online ,in retail stores and in your salon.
