A Tribute to Trevor Steyn: Visionary Founder of Esse Skincare

The Aesthetic Medicine and Professional Beauty South Africa teams express our profound sorrow and extend our deepest sympathies to the family, friends, and colleagues of Trevor Steyn, the inspirational founder of Esse Skincare. 

We were deeply honoured to have Trevor as a respected speaker at our recent Aesthetic Medicine Convention. His presentation on Epidermal Care was a powerful highlight, illuminating the scientific imperative behind his work. 

Trevor’s seminal insight for the aesthetic community was: 

"The epidermis is the foundation on which aesthetic treatments work. Not only does good skin care and hygiene compliment injectables, but it also extends longevity by maintaining the skin's health and treatment outcomes." 

A gifted chemist, Trevor was truly a global pioneer in probiotic and microbiome science. Through Esse, he did not just develop products; he spearheaded a monumental shift in the industry, proving that nurturing the skin's ecosystem is crucial for achieving superior and sustainable results from advanced aesthetic procedures. 

His commitment to science, strong ethical governance, and radical sustainability has set an enduring standard. 

"Trevor dedicated his life to remaking the skincare system... His vision will continue to lead us forward." 

We celebrate his extraordinary life and his enduring legacy, which will continue to guide the future of skincare in the professional and medical aesthetic fields.
