Advancing women in aesthetics

Earlier this year, Galderma announced a new multi-disciplinary group of advisory members that compose The Women in Aesthetics Leadership Council. All current and future female leaders in the medical aesthetics specialty, their expressed purpose is to work together to empower women in the industry to succeed.

“Our goal is to accelerate the trend of women holding leadership roles in medical societies, conducting clinical research, supporting training organizations, and to foster support for female focused aesthetic business ownership,” according to Alisa Lask, Vice President and General Manager of the U.S. Aesthetic Business.

Galderma reports recently soliciting the council’s feedback to help guide the company’s development of programs and resources to support female-led practices, businesses and research projects.
