PRETORIA, South Africa – In a landmark move for the local beauty and wellness industry, Pretoria-based medical professional, Dr Juanri Jonck and Somatologist Bernadette Kruger, have officially launched Twenty 4, the country’s first serum-led, medical-grade skincare range produced locally. The launch introduces a new philosophy to the South African market: moving beyond superficial moisturizing to targeted, cellular-level correction with proudly local, scientifically formulated serums.
By Dr Juanri Jonck & Bernadette Kruger, Co-Founders of Twenty 4
As an aesthetic doctor, Dr Juanri Jonck has spent years observing a gap between expensive clinical treatments and the over-the-counter products promising results they rarely deliver. “For years, we had to convince patients to pay premium prices for the best formulations, which often meant they could only afford one serum at a time,” Dr Jonck explains. “We know that combination therapy is key. Bernadette and I decided to formulate the key ingredients with the most clinical evidence and make them available to our patients at an accessible price point. Beautiful skin should not be limited to those with a beautiful budget.”
Twenty 4 disrupts the traditional skincare model by placing serums at the forefront of every regimen – the true powerhouse of any effective routine. Unlike heavy creams that primarily manage the skin’s surface, serums are engineered with low-viscosity, high-concentration active molecules designed to penetrate deeper layers for real, visible change.
The range is built on the medical principle of “coaching” the skin rather than creating dependency. Dr Jonck warns against the “lazy skin” trap, where occlusive products cause the skin’s natural renewal processes to slow down. Twenty 4 serums work in synergy with the skin’s biology, utilizing evidence-based actives to encourage healthy turnover and collagen synthesis from within.
Key highlights of the Twenty 4 launch include:
- First-to-Market Innovation: Twenty 4 is the inaugural serum-led, medical-grade skincare range available in South Africa.
- Proudly Local Production: Formulated and produced in South Africa, the range combines international scientific standards with local expertise.
- Medical-Grade Potency: The formulations utilize pharmaceutical-grade actives at evidence-based concentrations, stabilized for maximum efficacy.
- Empowerment Through Science: The brand focuses on “effective skincare routines” that empower the skin to function optimally, avoiding ingredients that impair intercellular communication.
- Accessible Efficacy: By stripping away unnecessary “filler” ingredients and marketing markups, Twenty 4 makes combination therapy—using multiple targeted serums—financially viable for the average consumer.
“When it comes to ingredients, we look for proven performers: Vitamin C as a collagen co-factor, Retinol as the gold standard for anti-ageing, and Niacinamide to strengthen the barrier and calm inflammation,” says Dr Jonck. “But a one-size-fits-all approach fails. The clinical advantage of Twenty 4 is that these aren’t just products on a shelf; they are part of a scientifically-backed strategy for skin health.”
Dr Jonck emphasises that the most potent serum is rendered useless without daily, broad-spectrum SPF, reinforcing that true skincare is a commitment to science, not just cosmetics.
The Twenty 4 range is now available to the South African public, offering a new paradigm in skincare: medical expertise, local pride, and clinical results without compromise.

But the thought leaders on talk radio and Fox do more than shape opinion. Backed by their own wing of the book-publishing industry and supported by think tanks that increasingly function as public-relations agencies, conservatives have built a whole alternative knowledge system, with its own facts, its own history, its own laws of economics. – David Frum

Myth: It’s all about being social. Fact: There’s A LOT more to it1 To an outsider, the ‘relationship-building’ that’s always referenced as the key to PR can be envisioned as a typical movie montage of professional life: fancy client dinners and drinks, followed by golfing or boating. While good social skills and the ability to cultivate and maintain clients’ and journalists’ trust do remain at the forefront of PR, many people don’t understand the work – from coordination and written communication to research and measurement – required to establish and maintain productive relationships. Clients won’t put their trust in you just because they like you – you need credibility and concrete results to back you up.
