Science deserves more than assumptions.

His clinical work with stem cell secretomes spans almost three decades. He has presented over one hundred papers at international scientific conferences, nineteen as keynote speaker, has held International Scientific Advisor positions with major South African and Swiss stem cell clinics and cell banks, and continues to translate his research through to proven clinical practice. He and his scientific team regularly refine proprietary protocols to deliver optimal cell-free approaches.

Alongside academic teaching, research and clinical consultancy, Steve has run stress management courses for over 27 years, working across the public and private sector. His approach measures individual responses to occupational stress and builds tailored strategies from those profiles, and he has designed and delivered specialist workplace wellbeing programmes covering sleep, nutritional support, general health and immune function.

Following his retirement from faculty positions, Steve now has time to chair our Scientific Advisory Board. Steve regards peptides as one of the most important tools in modern regenerative and longevity science. He describes them as signalling molecules that sit naturally alongside secretome and cell-free work, supporting cellular repair, mitochondrial and metabolic health, neurological resilience and healthy ageing. His oversight shapes the specifications Peptellect publishes for every research compound it supplies.

Angie takes a highly personalised, client-centred approach to aesthetics, combining clinical knowledge, advanced skin health expertise and an appreciation of facial harmony. She takes the time to understand each client’s individual needs, concerns and goals, creating treatment plans designed to enhance their natural features while maintaining balance and subtlety.

With extensive experience in medical aesthetics, including dermal fillers and botulinum toxin, Angie’s philosophy is centred around achieving results that look fresh, natural and refined. Her approach is not simply about changing appearance, but about supporting confidence, skin quality and the ageing process as a whole.

Alongside her clinical work, Angie has developed a particular interest in epigenetics and longevity medicine, and how emerging approaches in these fields may influence the future of aesthetic medicine and healthy ageing. She is fascinated by the relationship between lifestyle, environment, cellular function and the ageing process, and by the potential to move aesthetics beyond treating visible signs of ageing towards a more preventative and regenerative approach to skin health.

This interest has naturally led to her growing focus on peptides and their evolving role within aesthetics and longevity medicine. Angie is particularly interested in the potential of cosmetic and reparative peptides, including copper peptides, collagen-signalling peptides and barrier-supporting sequences, as part of a broader approach to supporting skin quality and recovery.

For Angie, the future of aesthetics lies in combining advanced treatments with a strong understanding of skin biology, cellular health, regeneration and healthy ageing. Her philosophy is that beautiful aesthetic results are built on healthy skin — creating outcomes that are natural, considered and designed to support the individual rather than simply mask the ageing process.
