Cosmeceuticals represent an important area connecting cosmetic products with scientifically supported approaches to skin health and appearance. This session will focus on the development, evaluation, and application of skincare products containing bioactive ingredients designed to address concerns such as aging, pigmentation, acne, hydration, and skin barrier dysfunction.
Discussions will explore scientifically studied ingredients, clinical efficacy, product safety, mechanisms of action, formulation technologies, and methods for evaluating skincare performance. Topics may include retinoids, peptides, antioxidants, growth-factor-related ingredients, botanical compounds, ceramides, exfoliating agents, skin-brightening ingredients, and other advanced active compounds used in modern cosmeceutical formulations.
The session will bring together dermatologists, cosmetic scientists, pharmaceutical researchers, formulation experts, and industry professionals to discuss the growing importance of evidence-based skincare. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of how scientific research, clinical testing, and formulation innovation can contribute to the development of safe, effective, and scientifically validated cosmeceutical products.
