Your Dermal Therapist
A little bit about us and what we do…
I’m Rose, Dermal Therapist and Director of Elixir Skin Fitness in Adelaide. Working in the Skin Health industry for over 20 years, if I could give anyone tips with regard to Skin Health, there would be two.
The one condition with Skin that I can honestly say is on the increase, it’s hyperpigmentation, the main driver being hormones and the main trigger is sun exposure. And I am on a mission to make sure my clients manage it in the best way possible so they can have the clearest complexion for their skin.
Two absolutely mandatory products I always recommend is firstly a tyrosinase inhibitor, a serum based product, that interrupts the hormonal stimulation and transfer of melanin (pigment) in the cells. White Balance Click by Medik8 is a favourite of mine, the main ingredient Kojic acid known for its efficacy in managing hyperpigmentation. The second product I recommend is Sun Protection! A daily 30+ or 50+ SPF sunscreen to stop the stimulation from the Sun that triggers that Melanin production process known as Melanogenesis. Mesoestetic Dermatological 50+ SPF is outstanding at protecting the skin from sun exposure.
The secret to any improvement a client would like to see in their skin is Choice! The choice clients make in their therapist, get to know him or her and ensure they have the right educational background and qualifications to give clients the best advice, so choose wisely.
I am the Director of Elixir Skin Fitness with over 20 years experience in the Skin Care Industry. I am highly trained and experienced in Dermal Therapies and Laser Safety, I am industry based and I have also lectured in Beauty Therapy at the Institute of TAFE. My continual dedication to my own education, personal growth and development has enabled me to obtain an excellent understanding of the elements necessary to create long term changes with the skin and provide solutions that suit my clients’ individual needs so they can look and feel their best always. I am very passionate about the industry I am so fortunate to be a part of and am more in love with my job now than ever before.
My strengths lie in expressing my creativity in finding solutions for a diverse range of skin conditions, such as Acne, Acne Scarring and Scar Revision, Ageing, Pigmentation, Sun Damage, Skin Rejuvenation, Wrinkle Reduction, Skin Resurfacing and Collagen remodeling. It gives me great pleasure to educate my clients on the best way to create long term change with their skin on a cellular level, have a positive impact on their self confidence and well being, bring out the best in them and have a lot of fun at the same time.
At Elixir Skin Fitness the goal is to provide you the client with sophisticated, state of the art medical grade treatment modalities and skin care products/nutrition. My creativity and understanding of the perfect combination of skin treatments and ingredients, means I am able to look after my clients on a very individual and personalised level – no two skins are alike – and create individualised programmes to suit.
The clinics philosophy is to remain results driven – there is nothing fluffy about it! Give you the client personalised customer service which enables me to get to know your skin, provide you with the best possible solution to retrain your cells, with fast results and in the safest and most affordable way possible. The goal is to keep my clients looking younger as they get older.
The Mission at Elixir Skin Fitness is to become each client’s very own “Personal Trainer for their Skin”. As most of us are already aware of the importance of consistency with exercise – including cardio and resistance training, combined with the correct diet and nutrition to create physical and chemical change in our body shape and strength. Elixir Skin Fitness applies the same principles to skin – it is no different!!
With the perfect individualised combination of consistent machinery based treatments (the exercise!) and the necessary skin care ingredients/nutrition (diet and nutrition!), creates the perfect formula to retrain your skin’s cells which in turn creates chemical and physical change! This is the formula that is applied in the clinic, that has been proven to work and gives the therapist and the client complete satisfaction.

Microdermabrasion is a non-surgical safe and gentle procedure that deeply exfoliates and polishes the skin to stimulate new cell growth. Using a gentle vacuuming system and diamond tip, microdermabrasion removes dead skin cells and unclogs pores.
Elos Technology is an abbreviation for electro-optical synergy. It is a combined technology of bi-polar radio frequency and optical energies (laser and light). It provides deep dermal penetration for a more effective treatment than with optical energy alone and results are predictable on all skin types. Elos synergistically combines energies in such a way that we can provide exceptionally effective treatments, with the greatest level of comfort without significant downtime.
A safe, non-invasive treatment that uses ultrasonic (sound wave) technology, warmth and motion energy to significantly increase the depth and rate at which treatment products are absorbed into the deeper layers of the skin. It is suitable for all skin types and delivers excellent results. These two treatment modalities combined provide an effective treatment for fine lines, wrinkles, acne, blackheads, congestion, epidermal pigmentation, open pores and rejuvenates dull, tired skin, including hands.
Dermamelan is an effective depigmentation treatment against the stains of Melasma. Works in a non-cytotoxic way, inhibiting the production and the transference of the melanin pigments. It produces a chemical superficial exfoliation, allowing the attenuation and/or elimination of the superficial hyper pigmentation on various depths. A strict protocol is mandatory to achieve best results.
Chemical Peeling consists of the application on the skin of exfoliating agents to obtain first, destruction and then regeneration of part of the epidermis and/or dermis. Chemical Peels produce a controlled wound that will result in renewal with the reduction or disappearance of sun damage, pigmentation, acne lesions, fine lines, wrinkles and superficial depressed scars. Depth and results depend on the strength and agents used. Elixir Skin Fitness provides a choice of Lactic Acid, Salycilic Acid, Glycolic Acid and Vitamin A peels dependent on skin diagnosis.
Medical Needling, also known as Percutaneous Collagen Induction, is a method of dermal needling which uses very fine surgical stainless steel needles to create micro channels into the epidermis and dermis, to release growth factors that promote scar less healing and the deposition of normal woven collagen, rather than scar collagen. Dermapen is excellent for skin tightening, lifting, rejuvenation and scar revision. Used successfully on acne scars, surgical scars, wound healing, alopecia, fine lines, wrinkles. It also minimises pore size and reduces the appearance of stretch marks.
Omnilux was developed after 12 years of extensive scientific research funded by Cancer research UK through Photo Therapeautics Ltd. Omnilux technology is based on narrowband Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs). The different heads treat a wide range of dermatological conditions including acne, photo damage, non-melanoma skin cancers, skin rejuvenation, vitiligo and wound-healing post elective surgery. The technology works because cells within the body contain receptors that absorb light naturally. When the body is exposed to light, these receptors absorb the light waves and kick start the mitochondria (the power house of the cell) responsible for the cells energy. Different wavelengths of light will stimulate different cellular responses within the cell.

– Racheal
After years of flawless skin, at the age of 40, I found myself with pigmentation on my cheeks. Given I have Indian skin, I was extremely nervous about the various treatments available, particularly laser. A friend recommended Dermamelan, as it is suitable for my skin type. I went for a Consult with Rose Bonasera at Elixir Skin Fitness. Rose was extremely thorough, took photos of my skin to send to Dermamelan to ensure I would be a suitable candidate for the treatment. She took me through the entire process, the timeframes for improvement and the expectations.The days following the treatment, I was freaking out a little about my skin’s reaction… Even though it had all been explained to me, I needed extra assurance! At all times, Rose was prompt to respond and gave me the confidence I needed that all was normal! I saw Rose on a weekly basis for a month following the treatment (at no cost). Her commitment to monitoring my results was exemplarily! As, for the results, I can now leave the house with little to no make-up. It has improved my self-confidence and I am so happy I took the step to undergo this treatment. Thank you Rose for your special care and support to assist me with my pigmentation issues. I would recommend Rose to anyone who has pigmentations issues – she is a specialist in the field, so you can count on the right treatment option for you.
There are many reasons why I go to Rosie not only because she is knowledgeable but also the marvellous treatments one receives. The calming, caring and professional ambience. Her ability to advise and listen to one’s concerns resulting in a very educational and fun experience.
I have been seeing Rose for quite a while now and you are always greeted with a beautiful bubbly smile filled with warmth and genuine enthusiasm . Her dedication and passion in this industry is giving her clients the very best of skin care treatments and advice making them look good and feel good about themselves she has certainly made me feel so good about myself and confident with her expertise in skin care treatments and advice – would not see anyone one else xxxx.
Rosa has been my Facial Therapist for a long time now and I only have wonderful words to describe her treatments. I plan my day so I can enjoy her magic fingers & her magic potions, my skin says thankyou and I fairly float out the door on cloud 9 – she’s the best!
Rose has been treating my skin since 2011 & up until I met Rose I thought facials were just a time to be pampered rather than an effective, anti – ageing regime which over time actually have significant results. Since working with Rose I now feel more confident, more radiant, and less a victim to unpredictable outbreaks of my skin. My skin has moistened & tightened & people are surprised I’m 40. I love the education & confidence Rose has given me in both the products & the treatments & I would not hesitate to put complete trust in her to gain the results in your skin whether it be to reduce the blemishes, wrinkles, oil or to tighten & pause the aging process. Rose is outstanding in her knowledge, skills & has a genuine passion to achieve the results you seek. I wish more people knew of her.
Rose is an exceptionally talented skin therapist who understands the individual needs of her clients. During the last two years Rose has mentored me to achieve a better balanced lifestyle and healthier vibrant skin. I have found Rose to be dedicated, passionate and supportive throughout all procedures and interventions. I love the fact that Rose takes a holistic approach to beauty, health and wellbeing. Rose always understands her clients and puts their needs first! I am excited that Rose will now be able to continue her individualised treatments in her own clinic! Congratulations Rose, you deserve ongoing successes, you’re a gem!
I had the pleasure of receiving treatments from Rose consistently over the last 6 months for the treatment of acne/scarring. Rose has transformed the overall appearance and health of my skin dramatically and is unlike any other beauty therapist I have met – an amazing woman that goes above and beyond ordinary beauty therapy and is passionate about skin health and strives for results. More than just a skin therapist, her ongoing support and advice has been a major positive influence on my life in general. I look forward to receiving further treatments from Rose at Elixir Skin Fitness and encourage anyone interested in improving their skin to do the same.
