A dedicated research scientist, Sujata Jolly has always looked beyond the limitations of established thinking and A dedicated research scientist, Sujata Jolly has always looked beyond the limitations of established thinking and conventional procedures.  She has demonstrated a rare ability to come up time and again with groundbreaking innovative solutions to diverse problems.

Her many scientific achievements range from inventing an important novel silicon rubber digester for the improvement of Rolls-Royce aircraft engine maintenance (see below), to devising the world’s first instrument to utilise sound energy for eradicating unwanted hair.

Sujata’s major interest now is in finding effective solutions to health and skin-related problems and she is often called upon by both print and broadcast media to give her opinion on these issues.

• Sujata Jolly settled in Britain as a young scientist in 1968, after graduating with a BSc (Hons) in Medical Sciences.  She spent fourteen years (1968 – 1982)  as a research and development scientist for leading blue chip companies:  ICI, Langley Alloys, Brent Chemicals, GKN

A notable achievement was Sujata’s invention and development of an innovative silicon rubber digester (remover) for Rolls-Royce aerospace engines.  This important development significantly improved high-grade engine maintenance, and led to increased aircraft engine safety and to cost savings of £ millions. It is still in use today.

• In 1979 Sujata founded her own company to research and develop remedies for skin problems.

• In 1982 Sujata opened one of Britain’s first luxury health spa.  This was some ten years before the boom in popularity of such facilities.  The lifestyle health club concept then was so novel that word quickly spread and clients came from far afield.  The club catered for over one hundred members a day.

Sujata researched and developed specialist skin treatments to alleviate debilitating skin problems such as acne, pigmentation, scarring and sun damage.  The Oxypeel range was carefully designed to be effective while having none of the harmful side effects associated with other treatments in common use for these conditions, such as Roaccutane – which has even led to suicide – and other topical and oral medication, abrasive chemical formulations, or the use of machines.

• In 1983, Sujata introduced the ancient Eastern art of micro-pigmentation to the UK.  Sujata launched micro-pigmentation in Britain, developing her own special pigments for the application, because she perceived the important medical and remedial benefits of this treatment for patients with skin problems.

Micro-pigmentation is able to correct disfigurements.  For example the appearance of scars can be minimised, and the technique can be used to recreate the colour of the areola after operations for breast augmentation procedures. It can also provide an effective solution for creating eyebrows and lash-lining for alopecia patients who have lost their own hair. Now widely used here, the technique, also known as ‘permanent make-up’, has become popular with many people as a purely cosmetic application.

• By 1992 Sujata’s company had expanded to the extent that it was taking up the majority of her time.  Sujata closed her health club to concentrate on marketing the products she had developed, while continuing to research and develop new treatments.

• In 1996 Sujata launched her innovative system for the progressive removal of unwanted hair using sound energy. This was the culmination of six years of research and development by Sujata.

Epil-Pro is a unique device which harnesses the power of sound energy to shatter the papillary cells at the hair root.  Unlike other hair removal systems, such as electrolysis, IPL or laser, Epil-Pro is free of side effects and can be used safely to remove superfluous hair without risk of burning, scarring or pigmentation.  It is truly non-invasive, virtually painless, and is effective on all hair colours and all skin types and tones.

Epil-Pro represents a significant breakthrough as it is thought to be the first time ever that sound energy has been harnessed for this type of application.

• Sujata developed a revolutionary spray-on dressing which can help to cut healing time in half.  The result of fifteen years research, Youki The Wound Healer revolutionises First Aid treatment and can help even with hard-to-heal chronic wounds such as leg ulcers, diabetic ulcers, and pressure sores.

Youki is the first treatment of its kind.  It can be applied direct to open wounds – everything from cuts, grazes and minor burns to chronic ulcers. Once applied, Youki forms a protective breathable film dressing over the wound – there is no need for traditional bandages, plasters or dressings. Youki works by supporting the skin’s own natural repair mechanism, providing the optimum conditions for healing.  Youki acts rapidly to reduce bleeding, relieve pain, accelerate healing and minimise scarring.

Youki’s specific benefits are its ease of use, its versatility, non-allergenic qualities (of particular benefit to people who are allergic to dressing adhesive), the environmental implications of reduced waste disposal and, most importantly, its ability to reduce overall healing time and scarring.
