Bridging Research, Perspectives, and Clinical Excellence in Skin Aging

Posted on by skin_challenges

Join us at Skin Challenges 2024 on November 5-6, where we’ll explore innovative strategies to understand and combat skin aging. Topics will include targeting senescent cells with senolytics, utilizing extracellular vesicles for rejuvenation, and exploring the benefits of microbiota and mitochondrial transplantation. We’ll also delve into the symbiotic relationship between the microbiome and skin health, as well as cutting-edge therapies in phage therapy and iron metabolism.

International speakers will elaborate on the following topics:

1. Senolytics: Targeting Senescent Cells

  • Mechanisms by which senolytics target and eliminate senescent cells.

  • Recent advances in senolytic drugs and their application in skin aging.

  • Clinical trial results and potential side effects of senolytic therapies.

2. Extracellular Vesicles: Messengers for Skin Rejuvenation

  • The role of extracellular vesicles (EVs) in skin health and regeneration.

  • Methods for isolating and utilizing exosomes in anti-aging treatments.

  • Clinical and preclinical studies demonstrating the efficacy of exosome-based therapies.

3. Skin Microbiota / Mitochondria Transplantation: A Novel Approach

  • Techniques and benefits of skin microbiota transplantation.

  • Advances in mitochondrial transplantation and its impact on skin aging.

  • Combined approaches to restoring skin microbiota and mitochondrial function.

Speakers include:

 

4. Microbiome & Skin: The Symbiotic Relationship

  • The interaction between the skin microbiome and skin health.

  • Factors influencing the skin microbiome and strategies to maintain its balance.

  • Innovations in microbiome-based skincare products and treatments.

Speakers include: 

 

5. Mitochondrial Function: Powerhouses of the Skin Cells

  • The importance of mitochondrial function in skin cells and its decline with age.

  • Nutritional and lifestyle interventions to enhance mitochondrial function.

  • Emerging therapies aimed at boosting mitochondrial health to combat skin aging.
