📍ESVD Innovative Approaches to Skin Healing Workshop, Stuttgart, Germany

This week has taken our knowledge to a whole new level. Dermatology is so much more than skin and allergies—it connects immunology, biochemistry, infectious diseases, endocrinology, wound management, and beyond.

How we manage wounds is crucial for ensuring our patients’ comfort, minimizing pain, and reducing scarring as much as possible.

Over the past two days, we’ve learned how to do exactly that, thanks to our outstanding speakers:

Dr. Ursula Mayer
Dr. Claudia Nett-Mettler
Dr. Teresa Böhm
Dr. Christoph Klinger
Dr. Jacintha M. Wilmink
Prof. Dr. Sander Bekeschus

Deep gratitude to all of them for sharing their expertise and empowering both general practitioners and dermatologists to feel more confident in managing skin healing.

This workshop would not have been possible without the help of our generous sponsors to whom we want to extend our most sincere appreciation!
