About Us

Maria is the Clinic Director and Founder of Pulse Laser Clinic.

She is a qualified lawyer in South Africa and also a Solicitor of England and Wales. Two years after moving to England in 2009, she explored the idea of a career change and her desire to start a business of her own.

In November 2012, together with her sister Christina, they noticed a gap in the London market for a laser clinic that not only provided unmatched treatment results, but a very personalised customer service to go with the treatments, and so Pulse Laser Clinic London was born.

This was an international branch of her sister’s very successful brand in Johannesburg.

Maria went on to gain a VTCT Level 3 NVQ Diploma in Beauty Therapy and a NVQ Level 4 Certificate in Laser and Intense Pulse Light.

She also holds certificates in Laser Safety and advanced laser and skin treatments such as laser tattoo removal, ablative and non ablative laser skin rejuvenation, micro-needling, TCA peels and medical facials.

Her favourite treatment to perform is ClearLift Laser, a non invasive skin remodelling treatment.

Over the past 11 years, Maria has invested a lot into ensuring that every client who came through the door had a superior experience and this is reflective in all of our top rated reviews.

When Maria is not running the business or performing treatments in clinic, she is kept busy at home with her two young daughters.

Dr Christina is a co-founder of Pulse Laser Aesthetic Clinic, together with her sister Maria.

Christina is our resident skin geek as when she is not in the clinic, she is doing skin stem cell research as a senior post-doctoral scientist at the King’s College London Centre for Gene Therapy and Regenerative Medicine.

Christina obtained a BSc. in Natural and Environmental Sciences in South Africa, and after gaining an MSc. in Biochemistry from the University of Johannesburg, she moved to London and obtained her PhD in Cell Biology at King’s College London.

Christina continues to do her postdoctoral training at Guy’s Hospital, working on the breakthrough realisation that human skin contains different kinds of fibroblasts.

She is specifically interested in these cells in the context of therapeutic applications for wound repair, tissue regeneration and healing scar tissue. She also holds certificates in advanced laser and skin treatments, medical microneedling, chemical peels and medical facials.

Christina juggles a demanding career in science, alongside co-running Pulse, and still of course finds time to spend with her husband and 3 year old son. In her spare time, Christina enjoys baking elaborate cakes, watching movies, and travelling.
