Galderma has unveiled findings from a global survey of peri- and post-menopausal women from nine countries exploring the impact of menopause on the skin. Galderma will leverage its expertise in dermatology to advance awareness, understanding, education, and treatment approaches for menopause-related skin changes. With around 85% of aesthetic patients being female, it is important to understand how these treatments can support women at all stages of life, especially during the complex time of the menopause. To help advance this understanding, Galderma has made the pioneering decision to now include menopausal status in its clinical trials to provide critical insights into how its injectable aesthetic treatments can best serve this patient population.
