This year’s SDEF Hawaii Dermatology Seminar is set to showcase the latest research and expert tips, advice, and perspective on a range of topics.
Linda Stein Gold, MD, director of dermatology research, Henry Ford Health System, Detroit, and a codirector of the meeting, shared a taste of the topics she will be presenting.
In the field of rosacea, “topical ivermectin has proven to be a very effective and safe treatment,” she said in an interview. “On the horizon we will have a new treatment for the erythema of rosacea which seems very well tolerated. Also, topical minocycline foam appears to be very promising in phase II studies.”
