Skin Academy: Advancing Scientific Exchange and Holistic Care in Medical Dermatology

This weekend, the 17th edition of Almirall’s Skin Academy, reaffirmed its position as a leading platform for scientific exchange, collaboration, and education in medical dermatology. The event brought together international experts and clinicians to share insights and explore the latest advances shaping clinical practice.

With a strong science‑driven agenda, Skin Academy 2026 focused on key areas such as inflammatory skin diseases, skin cancer, patient‑reported outcomes, and the growing importance of holistic care in medical dermatology. Across sessions, discussions highlighted how innovation, deeper scientific understanding, and patient‑centred approaches can work together to improve quality of life for people living with skin diseases.

A central theme of the meeting was the recognition that skin diseases often extend beyond physical symptoms. Sessions explored the emotional and psychological burden of chronic conditions, underlining the need for more comprehensive disease management. Particular attention was given to atopic dermatitis, especially unmet needs in face and neck involvement, as well as to psoriasis.

By fostering collaboration, shared learning, and high‑quality scientific education, Skin Academy continues to support progress in medical dermatology and reflects Almirall’s ongoing commitment to advancing medical care through science, innovation, and partnership.
