Over 70% of women now report having sensitive skin, often linked to a weakened barrier. Just as we hear about “leaky gut”, you can also have “leaky skin”.
In this Esse webinar, we’ll explore the critical role of biotherapeutics in restoring the skin barrier, with a key focus on leaky skin, and its connection with skin and its connection to conditions like psoriasis, eczema, and ageing.
We will examine how skin thickness, inflammation, and modern skincare treatments impact long-term skin health.
Discover the latest microbiome-based approaches to healing and strengthening the skin for lasting resilience and health.
