A leader in his field, Dr Mayson in 1993 was the first doctor in NSW to acquire the revolutionary Q-switched YAG laser for the safe removal of tattoos without scarring. The following year, he was among the first doctors in Australia to commence Laser Skin Resurfacing for the removal of facial wrinkles and acne scarring; and again in 1994, he was the first doctor to introduce the cosmetic use of Muscle Relaxant injections into Australia.
For these reasons, his work has featured regularly on TV and in major magazines and newspapers.

He has been interviewed on interstate radio stations and has conducted Cosmetic Surgery talk-back sessions on 2UE, 2GB and ABC. His work has also featured on top-rating television programs such as 'Today Tonight', 'A Current Affair' and 'Good Medicine' and for years Dr Mayson was the regular guest Cosmetic Surgeon on Channel Nine's 'Midday Show' with Kerri-Anne Kennerley. More recently in 2006, when Procter & Gamble were looking for a Cosmetic or Plastic Surgeon with an impeccable reputation and no history of litigation to endorse their latest skin care product 'Olay Regenerist' they chose Dr Mayson. Even more recently, Woman's Day Magazine has asked Dr Mayson to conduct a regular Q&A column on Cosmetic Surgery. You can read his column every month beginning in January 2007.
