Skin Nutrition and Biological Age

Skin aging reflects not only chronological time but also underlying biological processes influenced by nutrition, metabolism, inflammation, and lifestyle. Emerging research highlights how dietary patterns, micronutrients, gut health, and metabolic resilience shape skin structure, function, and visible aging. This session will explore the concept of biological age as it relates to skin health, with a focus on nutritional and integrative strategies that support cellular repair, collagen integrity, barrier function, and healthy aging across the lifespan. Dermatologists will gain practical, evidence-based tools to assess nutritional contributors to skin aging and to incorporate targeted interventions into patient care. Case-based discussions will demonstrate how to translate these insights into real-world clinical practice. Following the lecture, we’ll share information about the Integrative Dermatology Certificate Program (IDCP) and resources for advancing an integrative, longevity-focused dermatology practice. Join us for an engaging evening of expert discussion and live Q&A.
