Skin Challenges 2025 Special Session: Senolytic & Senomorphic Agents – Strategies and Impact on Rejuvenation


Why a session dedicated to Senescence?
Cellular senescence is a key driver of skin ageing, contributing to loss of elasticity, impaired wound healing, and chronic inflammation.
Understanding the mechanisms of senescence and developing targeted interventions — such as senolytics to eliminate senescent cells and senomorphics to modulate their effects — are crucial strategies to promote skin rejuvenation and healthy ageing.
This session will highlight innovative research on:
- Cellular senescence and its role in ageing skin
- Senolytics and senomorphics in dermatology
- Stem cell-based rejuvenation strategies
- Molecules and drugs for skin regeneration
