Inside AAD New Orleans 2023’s Biggest Aesthetic Skin Care Trends

AAD Unveils the Biggest Moves of Top Brands in Aesthetic Skin Care

Last week, team Kline joined hundreds of industry professionals and enthusiasts in New Orleans at the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) Annual Meeting to explore the future of aesthetic skin care. “The exhibit hall was vibrant,” says Dana Kreutzer, Project Lead in our Beauty and Wellbeing sector. “It featured the latest products, services, and clinical studies from over 350 exhibitors, including those offering aesthetic skin care products, devices, pharmaceuticals, practice management, and more.”

At the show, we engaged with our partners to learn about their new business initiatives, understand what’s on their radar, and brainstorm fresh ideas for our upcoming research. Here are our key takeaways from the show:

  • The buzziest new brands at the show were Gladskin, under Europe’s biotechnology company Micreos, and Crown Aesthetics’ new Biojuve. Gladskin’s direct-to-consumer line has been available in the U.S. market for two years. The brand is now introducing higher-strength products for consumers with inflammatory skin conditions such as eczema to the physician-dispensed market under GladskinMD. Meanwhile, Biojuve was promoting its proprietary XcrobeTM Technology and line of skin biome care products.
