Stefan Mazy
Stefan Mazy is considered the pioneer of the consumer skin genomics industry with SkinDNA® – the worlds first direct-to-consumer skin genetic test. After taking the test, his algorithms help provide users with the most suitable and unbiased ingredients, supplements and professional treatment modalities based on their unique SkinDNA® profile rather than guess work.
Over a decade since inception, SkinDNA® kits are sold in more than 20 countries.
In addition, Stefan’s proprietary and award-winning technology powers more than 70 per cent of all DNA skin health tests for cosmetic and skincare brands around the world; and his company holds one of the largest derma genetics / lifestyle interaction databases.
Stefan has received global recognition for his innovation and contribution to the cosmetic and biotechnology industries, as well as for its efforts in promoting Australian technology worldwide. His years of research boiled down to this one key finding: your DNA has a major influence upon your skin health and the way your skin will age.
Stefan is using his decades of research into the genomic insights of skin aging to collaborate with leading Australian university, University of NSW, and globally recognised research facility, The Garvin Institute, to continue to revolutionise the way in which genetics can inform skincare practices.
He fundamentally believes that;
1. The key to success is passion
2. Make education exhilarating.
3. We can all have healthier skin for longer
