Christell Luxury Wellness, Sri Lanka’s leading medical aesthetics and wellness clinic, has nabbed top prize yet again this year, after being awarded the Quality Achievement Award 2025 for the Healthcare Sector at the annual European Society for Quality Research (ESQR) Awards - further cementing its commitment to excellence in services and quality management strategies.
The annual ESQR Convention and Awards Ceremony was held this year on Tuesday, the 9th of December in Dubai, UAE, bringing together select organisations, institutions, and government agencies from across Europe, Asia, the Americas, Africa, and Australia to be notably honoured for their outstanding achievements in quality management. A Swiss-based organisation, ESQR’s recognition program takes a comprehensive look at the initiatives and strategies that quality leaders implement in their organisations, highlights the efforts of exceptional and talented employers/employees, and provides motivation for continuous progress.
Christell Luxury Wellness Founder and Co-Chairperson Professor Ramani Arsecularatne said: “It’s an honour to be recognised by ESQR, validating the hard work that goes behind our brand. This achievement is not just a testament to our dedication, but also serves as greater incentive for us to continue what we have been doing and more.”
Christell Luxury Wellness CEO and Medical Director Dr Shanika Arsecularatne said: “2025 has been a phenomenal year of growth and recognition for Christell, both within Sri Lanka and worldwide. We are thrilled to be able to cap off the year with yet another award; and that too, one that honours our commitment to high-quality services for our growing clientele.”
In October 2025, the homegrown brand made history as the first Sri Lankan aesthetics centre to win the Wellness Clinic of the Year award for the entire Asia Pacific region at the prestigious GlobalHealth Aesthetics and Wellness Summit, Conference and Awards 2025. In addition to the ceremony’s top honour, Christell Luxury Wellness was also awarded Gold in three major categories: Aesthetic Clinic of the Year, Most Innovative Clinic of the Year, and Trichology Clinic (Non-Transplant) of the Year; additionally with Christell Clinic CEO and Medical Director Dr. Shanika Arsecularatne, recognised as the Icon of Aesthetics for Sri Lanka.
Adding to its trophy cabinet, in November 2025 Christell Luxury Wellness was named the Best Service Provider in the South Asian Healthcare Sector, and Dr Shanika bestowed the title of Best Woman Entrepreneur of the Year at the South Asian Business Excellence Awards 2025.
Accolades aside, 2025 was also a milestone year for the company’s expansion and innovation, when Christell Luxury Wellness launched the Christell Super Specialty Hair Restoration Lab; marking a significant advancement in the field of hair loss management and restoration in the country.
