It’s been a pretty big year for DMK, especially DMK down-under.

With visits from Danne, the development and launch of a skin APP (coming soon – stay tuned), the website relaunch, and so much more, this year truly has been a big one.

Let’s recap…

The DMK Awards Dinner

A night to congratulate our top clinics and to treat our therapists to a fabulous evening. Great costumes, great company!

 

The DMK Tour

Danne travelled from state-to-state meeting and presenting to his many devotees and potential new ones. It was a whirlwind tour  like no other, accompanied by many media mentions!

 

The launch of the new SLS Free cleansers, milky clean & pure and deep pore pure… the many articles featured in professional aesthetic magazines around the world, and of course the beautiful Christmas gifts we mentioned in the previous post.

Let’s not forget the many clients we have helped regain confidence within their skin. That’s why we are all here.

Again, thank you to all who made this year the most exciting yet. 2012 here we come!

Renee Brack, presenter from The Movie Network show, Movie Juice, is a DMK advocate. Being on camera is essential in her line of work, and so is caring for her skin. Here’s a little bit about Renee and her experience with DMK…

1. How did you find DMK?

In the late 90s, I was a regular client of Daniel and Debbie for hairstyling and skin care.  I loved their approach and attitude to service and product line.  So when they found DMK, I was lucky enough to be one of their clients to test it.  So more than 10 years later, I continue to use the product line – twice a day – along with fortnightly DMK facials and vitamin support.

 

2. What’s your advice for maintaining youthful, healthy skin?

• Cleansing, moisturising and caring for your skin – at night is even more important than in the morning! 
• Water is the real fountain of youth – but organic vegetable juice is a close second. 
• Keep quality fats in your diet. 
• Do what it takes to stabilise your hormones each month.
• Exercise most days of the week and vary it – weights / yoga / cardio. 
• And smile.  Each day, find one thing you really like about yourself and take a moment to appreciate it and smile.

 

3. Tell us what DMK’s Enzyme Therapy does for your skin. What results have you seen?

There’s nothing like having a late arvo DMK Enzyme Therapy facial then going home for an early dinner and early bed.  When you wake up, you really are Sleeping Beauty who’s woken up on the right side of the bed!  It’s a revitalising effect that works inside and out, and people notice.  Not only do they notice – they say something.  And it’s always a compliment about my skin.

 

4.  What makes DMK stand apart from other skin care or cosmetic companies?

DMK advocates know the range is top quality and they know that it works.  It does what it says they say it’s going to do but it does require a commitment from the client to follow the DMK steps to wonderful skin. 

 This is not just a cosmetic range by any means.  There is a strong medical foundation behind the DMK brand.

 

5. If you were stuck on a deserted island, and you could only take one DMK product, which would it be?

betagen crème.  Day or night, it’s the long, cool drink from the fountain of youth my skin just loves.

For 40 years DMK has lived by the motto, Rebuilding Skin. Rebuilding Lives.

It’s time for us to show you what we really mean… this is David’s story.

Hi Danné,

It’s David here, and this is my story.

I guess I’ll start with when I first got a cyst on my right cheek. I was in year 11 at high school, 16 years old, heavily involved in soccer and felt like I had everything good to look forward to, until I got the cyst.

To that point, I had never seen so much puss come out of my face, and half an hour after squeezing it my cheek was swollen like half a tennis ball. My cheek remained like that for some time, and after two weeks people stopped believing my lie about getting into a fight. If I thought I was popular before because of my athletic ability and my cheeky personality I was wrong, this had elevated me to celebrity superstar status but in the worst way possible.
So I went to a dermatologist where he made a tiny incision and the mountain on my face once again erupted. Finally the swelling settled and for a while I could breathe again. Little did I know this ship was sinking fast and it would be the last breath I would have for what would seem like an eternity.

The unfortunate thing about all this is I’m generally a very happy person who likes to laugh and laughs easily. In fact I would constantly be in trouble at school simply for smiling so I can’t begin to describe how embarrassing it was to smile or laugh during Tafe classes and have my skin break open on both of my acne covered cheeks.
On countless occasions I was hit in the face with the soccer ball causing more swelling. Then the unthinkable happened, I was 19 and on this particular day I was playing at Parramatta Stadium before the main game. I was involved in a collision with two other players and my right cheek was split open. When I got home and saw the damage I contemplated killing myself.

The next day when I was supposed to catch the train to Tafe I decided to go to the beach instead. It was early and no one was there, I told myself I would swim out as far as I could and drown when I got too tired. For two days I tried but couldn’t do it. So I continued looking for another solution, but the only thing going through my head was “how much more must I suffer?” Strangers would ignore me and children would call me ‘scar face’.

I was getting desperate. I started doing my own research and I went to a plastic surgeon to get his opinion, which was lucky because I had noticed a difference in the position of my right eye and I was also getting some double vision. He sent me to get a few scans done and they found I had a tumour behind my right eye which was slowly getting bigger. I had no choice but to have it removed otherwise it could turn malignant. I was completely shocked, speechless, to hear that they would shave my eyebrow and cut the bone around my eye to remove the tumour. I mean how many scars can one person take? My face already looked like a battlefield; I could have played the part of Frankenstein without make-up.

I stayed hopeful that something good would come my way, and finally it did. I read an advertisement in the paper about a DMK skin revision clinic called “Skin For Life”. I decided to give it a go, and this is when I met Leanne. She explained the DMK products and treatments in a way that I would be able to understand. I must say I was a bit sceptical at first but after even the first treatment it was evident that I had something to look forward to. I finally now can see my own reflection in the mirror instead of some monster. I only wish I found your wonderful products long ago as well as the wonderful Leanne.

To you and Leanne I will always feel in debt, and I could never thank you enough.

David.

There’s been lots of attention on DMK Australia this past August. We’ve been keeping Danné all to ourselves!

DMK Annual Awards Dinner

Firstly, we had the DMK Annual Awards Dinner where our well-deserved clinic owners and staff were treated to a Royal affair at Sydney’s Darling Harbour Convention Centre. The dress-up theme (Royal) had staff dressed up and ready to celebrate another great year for DMK.

Congratulations to Donna (pictured above) on 10 years of dedication to DMK.

DMK Tour

Secondly, we whisked Danné around the country on a whistle-stop tour like no other. Meeting and greeting his many Australian fans, Danné saw almost 1000 people in five states over eight days. Not bad for a man of almost 70. A DMK first, the guests included DMK’s most loyal clients who were invited to bring along a friend to introduce to DMK. Some venues, including Brisbane’s stunning Cloud Room, saw almost 300 people attend!

Guests hung on Danné’s every word, while a video montage commemorating over 30 years of skin revision was played to open each show. The video will be available to view on the DMK YouTube channel: www.youtube.com/dmkskin shortly. So stay tuned!

Daniel Dickson (DMK Australia MD), Danné Montague-King and Deborah Hutton.
