We were proud to host a highly successful full-day educational seminar in Athens, organized by SVR Laboratory Lebanon under SPEPHAL, bringing together healthcare professionals for a day of scientific exchange, learning, and collaboration focused on the latest advancements in dermatology and skincare.

A key highlight of the event was the ED Workshop, which encouraged interactive discussions, practical learning, and the exchange of real-world experiences, helping participants enhance their understanding of current dermatological challenges and best practices.

We were honored to welcome Dr. Boutros Soutou, who delivered an insightful lecture entitled "Azelaic Acid: From Molecule to Clinical Study."

* Key takeaways included:

The multifaceted mechanisms of action of azelaic acid, including its anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and depigmenting properties.
Its proven efficacy in managing acne, rosacea, and hyperpigmentation.
The strong clinical evidence supporting its safety and effectiveness across different skin types, making it a valuable and versatile dermatological ingredient.

Participants also benefited from an engaging presentation by Dr. Jennifer Akl on "Endocrine Disruptors in Dermatology."

* Key takeaways included:

The increasing importance of understanding endocrine disruptors and their potential impact on human health.
The role of environmental exposure in dermatology and the growing demand for transparency in cosmetic formulations.
The importance of selecting products with demonstrated safety profiles and scientifically validated testing methods.

Beyond the scientific content, the seminar fostered meaningful dialogue, valuable knowledge sharing, and strong professional networking opportunities. Attendees left with practical insights that can be directly applied to their daily clinical practice and patient care.

A sincere thank you to all our speakers, participants, and partners for their engagement and contribution to the success of this educational event. Together, we continue to advance dermatological science and support evidence-based skincare.
