Teen va**ng: far more dangerous than it looks. 💨
⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄
It might seem obvious that va**ng is harmful.
But do we really understand just how harmful it is?

I recently listened to a medical discussion that unpacked the reality, and honestly, it was sobering.🙌🏽

Va**ng has exploded in schools.

It’s become the “casual, reach-for-it-anytime” habit…
Marketed as cool. Tasty. Harmless.
But that couldn’t be further from the truth. 📢

💨It delivers concentrated ni****ne (one of the most addictive substances) , directly to a still-developing brain, disrupting learning, memory, and emotional development.

💨It can cause “popcorn lung: a scarring of the tiny airways in the lungs that is irreversible.
💨It harms the cardiovascular system, increasing heart rate and blood pressure.
💨And it’s training an entire generation into dependence - one puff at a time.

We’re not just talking about flavoured smoke.
We’re talking about a neurotoxic, inflammatory chemical cocktail, being inhaled into bodies that are STILL growing.

It looks harmless. It feels harmless.
But the damage is real and it runs deep.

Let’s talk to our teens. Let’s equip them with the truth.💗
Take it from me. The cost of silence is not worth it.

This past weekend I had the privilege of attending AMCSA in Pretoria - and wow, what a time we had! 🤩
⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄
So many incredible speakers, insights, and innovations, all centered around skin health and recovery.

There were so many new perspectives around the science of skin quality and advanced treatment modalities, as well as the fascinating connection between skin and the mind, every session was a deep dive into the future of aesthetic and medical dermatology. 💗👏🏽

We also unpacked important emerging challenges, like the impact of GLP-1 treatments and rapid weight loss on the skin - something we’re seeing more and more of in practice.

Feeling inspired, informed, and grateful to be part of such a forward-thinking community. ✨

Can’t wait to be back! 👏🏽

Let’s talk about Botulinum Toxin and why I’m a huge fan. 😉💉
⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄

Yes, that’s the full medical name. And yes, it’s the same substance you’ve probably heard people whisper about in terms of “toxins” and “frozen faces.” But it’s time we brought some clarity and calm to the conversation.💞

Botulinum Toxin has been around for decades.In fact, it’s been safely used in medicine since the late 1970s,initially for treating eye disorders. Today, it's FDA-approved in over 20 therapeutic areas – not just for aesthetics.💉

When administered correctly by a trained medical professional, Botulinum Toxin is precise, safe, and incredibly effective!
It works by gently relaxing overactive muscles, and that simple mechanism has a whole host of uses beyond softening wrinkles:
💉Teeth grinding (bruxism)
Less tension, fewer headaches
💉Tension migraines
Especially those rooted in muscular stress
💉Excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis)
Underarms, palms, feet
💉Jaw clenching & TMJ issues
Relief without the need for medication

We need to break the stigma around this treatment being “unnatural” or “dangerous.” ✔️

Used properly, Botulinum Toxin doesn’t *
freeze your face or poison your body, it supports it. It’s simply a tool. And like any tool, the outcome depends entirely on the hands that use it.😌

This is why I’m such a strong advocate. When used with purpose and care, Botulinum Toxin empowers people to feel more comfortable-in their faces, in their bodies, in their confidence.

So if you’ve been curious, skeptical, or even a bit nervous, know this:
You’re not alone, and there’s nothing shameful about exploring a treatment that has helped millions of people-both medically and aesthetically-feel better in their skin.✨

Hand, Foot & Mouth in Kids 👣✋👄
⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄

It’s that time of year again when we start seeing breakouts of Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease (HFMD), especially in little ones at crèches, playgroups, or even just out and about. 💓

This common childhood illness is highly contagious, but thankfully, it’s also very manageable!

◻️What to look out for:
▫️Small red spots or blisters on the ▫️hands, feet, or around the mouth
▫️Fever (often the first sign)
▫️Sore throat or painful mouth ulcers
▫️Irritability, tiredness, or refusing to eat

◻️How it spreads:
HFMD spreads quickly through touch, so things like trolley handles, high chairs, toys, or shared surfaces can easily pass it on.

◻️How to help prevent it:
▫️Wipe down trolleys and high chairs before use
▫️Encourage regular handwashing
▫️Avoid close contact with others if your child is showing symptoms
▫️Keep little ones home from school or daycare while unwell

The good news:
While it can be painful and uncomfortable, HFMD is usually mild and clears up within a week. 🩷
You can treat the symptoms at home with pain relief and lots of fluids. Think of it like a nasty cold, not fun, but totally manageable.

When it becomes a concern:
If your child is refusing to eat or drink, in significant pain, or if you’re just not sure what’s going on, please consult your Pead or family doctor!

You’ve got this, parents! 💓

COMMON CHILDHOOD INJURIES THAT OFTEN SLIP UNDER THE RADAR 🚨
⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄

As a GP, I’ve seen how quickly childhood injuries can happen and how often they’re overlooked, especially in busy or social environments. 🙌🏽

One of the most common scenarios?
When there are lots of adults around and everyone assumes someone else is watching the kids.

This is called diffusion of responsibility and it’s one of the leading reasons we see preventable accidents in little ones.🙌🏽

Common injuries we see include:
💓Head knocks from falls
💓Minor burns in the kitchen or braai area
💓Dog bites (often from familiar pets)
💓Drownings or near-misses—even in shallow water
💓Broken bones from unsupervised playground climbing
💓Swallowing small objects or meds

The Takeaway:
Children are naturally curious, fast, and fearless. Injuries can happen in seconds. When you’re in a group, it’s crucial to actively designate someone to supervise. A quick handover of responsibility can make all the difference.✨

You don’t need to hover but you do need to be mindful. Prevention is still one of our most powerful tools in keeping children safe and thriving.🙌🏽

Thinking About Lip Filler? 💉
Let’s Talk Candidacy.😉
⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄

While technically anyone can get lip filler, that doesn’t mean it’s always the right time, or the right decision-for everyone.

Here are a few things to consider before booking:
🫦Are you looking for balance, not just volume?
🫦Are you prepared for maintenance over time?
🫦Do you understand how your natural anatomy affects your results?
🫦Are your expectations realistic?
🫦Is your skin (and lifestyle) ready for filler, or would skin health treatments come first?

Lip filler can be a beautiful, confidence-boosting procedure, but it’s worth taking a moment to consider the why, when and how!👌🏽

Curious if it’s right for you? Let’s have a chat before you commit.💓

Yet another webinar hosted by Allergan Medical Institute. And once again a giant in the industry- Dr Heydenrych. Science, anatomy, evidence based medicine. 🫱🏽‍🫲🏼

25/07/2025

Did you know the heart begins beating (through teeny tiny electrical impulses) just 22 days after conception?

No one tells it to. No surgeon activates it. It simply knows- because it was designed to.🤍

As a doctor, I study the body through anatomy, physiology, and clinical science. But as a believer, I see the deeper story: that we are “fearfully and wonderfully made”(Psalm 139:14). That long before we were aware of our own existence, God was already knitting us together, with intelligence, function, and purpose.🧶

Medicine teaches us the how, But scripture reminds us of the why!

The body isn’t just functional, it’s divine architecture. Every healing process, every heartbeat, every breath is a whisper of the Creator’s intentionality.

And every day in this field, I’m reminded that my role isn’t just to diagnose or treat, but to marvel and to partner with Him in caring for His most intricate creation.

- what an honour! 💞

How much cheek filler is too much? 💉
⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄ ⋄

The answer? When it starts replacing your natural features instead of enhancing them. 🙌🏽

In a world where “snatched” and sculpted can quickly become overdone, it’s easy to forget that less really is more. I’m proud to work at a Centre where we believe in elevating your natural beauty, not masking it. ✔️

Cheek filler can be incredible for restoring volume, lifting the mid-face, and giving a refreshed look... B U T only when it’s done intentionally and conservatively.💫

Too much filler can lead to a heavy or puffy appearance and even distort your natural anatomy over time. That’s why we always start small, assess carefully, and aim for results that look like you on your best day.

No trends. No overcorrections. Just artful, anatomical and age-appropriate care. 💞

Feel it’s time for a ‘cheeky’ check in ? 💉💉
Let’s do it the RIGHT way!

Meet my new little powerhouse: the DermLite - a 10x magnification lens that’s changing the game when it comes to early skin diagnosis and treatment planning. 👏🏽

This tool allows me to look deeper into skin lesions, helping identify features of sun damage, pigmentation, inflammation and even the early signs of skin cancer.

It’s precise, effective, and gives us so much more confidence when planning removals or deciding what needs to be monitored. 💕

It might be small, but it’s mighty and it's all about giving you safer, smarter skin care!

If you’ve got a mole, spot, or skin change that’s been worrying you, don’t wait. Let’s take a closer look together.

📍 Book a consultation and come have a chat - your skin’s health is worth it.
