Agenda
18:45 - Welcome by the chair
19:00 - Microbiome and Acne: Beyond the Surface
Exploring the Role of Skin Microbiota and Modern Approaches to Management
Acne remains one of the most common dermatological conditions, yet emerging science highlights that the skin microbiome plays a far more complex role than once thought. At the same time, rising antibiotic resistance demands a rethink in how clinicians approach treatment. In this evidence-based session, Dr. George Moncrieff will explore new perspectives on acne pathogenesis, sustainable treatment strategies, and practical guidance for clinicians.
This session will explore:
- The skin microbiome and its evolving role in acne development
- The burden of antibiotic resistance in acne management
- Evidence-based strategies to reduce antibiotic reliance
- The role of topical retinoid therapies in supporting long-term control
- How to integrate early intervention to prevent scarring and improve patient outcomes
- Real-world case examples for holistic and patient-centred care
Ideal for dermatology consultants, GPs, doctors in training, specialist nurses and allied healthcare professionals, this session equips attendees with insight into the microbiome–acne connection and practical tools to make confident, evidence-aligned decisions in patient care.
