Dr. Pradeep Albert will discuss the historical perspective of PRP and dive into the science behind the treatment. He will also cover the step-by-step pre-injection process to prepare patients for the procedure.

Dr. Kavita Beri discusses the foundations of Regenerative Medicine and Regenerative Wound Healing. Among other Regenerative Medicine basics, she discusses properties of epidermal stem cells, the physiology of wounds and the role of epidermal stem cells in wound healing. Dr. Beri will also touch on the latest applications of epidermal stem cells in skin grafting.

• Concept of Regenerative Medicine & Regenerative wound healing
• Epidermal stem cells location and classification
• Hair follicular stems cells
• Wound physiology and role of -epidermal stem cells based on current evidence based science
• Concept of Niche
• Neo niche
• Future implications

Dr. Carolyn DeLucia discusses the evolution of aesthetic gynecology and covers various modalities within aesthetic gynecology. In addition to surgical techniques, lasers and radio frequency, Dr. DeLucia covers non-invasive, non-hormonal techniques such as PRP and fat transfer.

A Special Webinar For US Residents & Younger Dermatologists Through The Next Steps In Derm Platform

Please join Terrence Keaney, MD, Assistant Clinical Professor of Dermatology at The George Washington University School of Medicine for an informative presentation on the relationship between the skin microbiome and healthy skin barrier function. Dr. Keaney will discuss the multiple factors contributing to variability in the skin microbiota, changes to the microbiome during various disease states including atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, acne, rosacea, and various nutrients that may help rebalance the microbiome during disease. Recent data will be offered on the effects of thermal spring water on the microbiome including prebiotic action and the role of prebiotics in management of skin diseases. You will learn about the unique mineral composition of LaRoche-Posay thermal water and how emollients prepared with LaRoche-Posay thermal water have a beneficial effect on the microbiome in atopic dermatitis, psoriasis and dry skin various skin conditions.

You will learn more about:

• Healthy skin is dependent on an intact barrier and a healthy microbiome
• Diseased, or dysbiotic skin is characterized by an increase in pathogenic bacteria and a decrease in bacterial diversity
• Prebiotics are non-living agents that stimulate the growth of indigenous bacteria
• Prebiotics in skin disease can include water, moisturizers and oligoelements
• The beneficial effect to the microbiome during atopic dermatitis, psoriasis and dry skin through the use of emollients prepared with LaRoche-Posay thermal water containing a Thankunique mineral composition high in selenium, a potent anti-inflammatory agent
