Dr Mariaan Kuhn

MBChB

I grew up in Pretoria and graduated with an MBChB degree in 2000 from the University of Pretoria. I completed my internship in Cape Town and community service year in Oudtshoorn. After working at the Red cross children's hospital in Cape Town as a medical officer for a year, I left for the UK where I had a registrar post in neonatology. My love for South Africa and its people made me return after a year. Realising the job satisfaction general private practice awarded me, I settled as a general practitioner in Cape Town. First at Medicross for six years and thereafter as sole practitioner for the last 11 years. My keen interest and love for beauty and art directed me to train as aesthetic doctor in 2009. Enhancing natural beauty with botulinum toxin and dermal fillers is part of my scope of practice.

Art and science are the two passions that drive me. They are probably also the reason I love medical aesthetics so much. I love painting, drawing, doing arts and crafts. I love reading about the human species- our evolution, psychology, behaviour and nature.

I have also assisted a variety of specialists in theatre (gynaecologist, orthopeadic surgeons, urologists, general surgeons and also neursurgeons), which is really a passion of mint.Through all this. I am still married to my best friend, Hein, over 26 years, and we have raised 3 beautiful, strong boys together.

Then I returned to the public sector for approximately 4 years and no I am back in the private sector doing sonography full time. I like it when puzzles come together in my work, but also when relaxing with my kids.

My favorite place on earth is where animals outnumber humans. I am always in awe of the Creator and breathing comes more easily.
