The skin microbiome plays an important role in maintaining skin barrier function, immune regulation, and overall skin health. This session will examine emerging research into the complex interactions between microorganisms and the skin and explore how microbiome science is influencing modern dermatology and cosmetic research.
Discussions will cover skin microbial diversity, probiotics, prebiotics, postbiotics, microbial balance, barrier function, inflammation, acne, sensitive skin, aging, and microbiome-focused skincare. Researchers will explore how environmental factors, cosmetic products, medications, and lifestyle can influence the skin microbiome and how these discoveries may support innovative therapeutic and cosmetic strategies.
The session will provide a multidisciplinary platform for dermatologists, microbiologists, cosmetic scientists, biotechnologists, and researchers to present emerging findings and explore new applications of microbiome science. Participants will gain insights into the potential of microbiome-based technologies for developing next-generation skincare products and dermatological treatments.
