DERMAFOCUS, CELORA VITA LAUNCH

Landing Forty Two, London

After an action packed day at ACE, Editor Kezia Parkins alongside industry pals including Anna Dobbie and Alice Hart-Davis attended DermaFocus’s dazzling industry event at Landing Forty Two to celebrate the launch of Celora Vita - a new biorestorative injectable designed to support skin biorestoration.

Guests enjoyed a thrilling ride up to the reception where all were greeted with cocktails and champagne before sitting down to hear about the exciting new launch.

Rebecca Henry, DermaFocus Head of CSP energetically introduced all of the speakers which included Milad Bemana, Co-Founder and Executive Director of DermaFocus, Professor Lee Walker, Dr Catherine Fairris and Dr Olivia McCabe Robinson.

“We remain focused on innovation, education, and delivering measurable clinical impact, and we look forward to shaping the future of regenerative aesthetics by introducing Celora Vita and the category of biorestoration to a global audience,” said Bemana.

Guests stayed until late to party high in the sky with live entertainment, stunning views, canapés and of course, more cocktails.

L-NUTRA PRESS BREAKFAST

Mildred’s, London

Editor Kezia Parkins attended an intimate press breakfast hosted by L-Nutra Health at Mildred’s to explore emerging clinical insights into autophagy and its growing relevance within aesthetic and metabolic medicine.

Guests were welcomed with informal networking over a plant-led breakfast buffet before a series of expert presentations examining longevity nutrition and real-world clinical application. Central to the discussion was L-Nutra’s recently presented human clinical trial, described as the first to demonstrate activation of autophagy – the body’s innate cellular “clean-up” process – alongside improvements in key metabolic health markers through a structured Fasting-Mimicking nutrition protocol.

Andrea Ghirardi, CEO of L-Nutra Europe, Middle East and Africa, opened the session by outlining the brand’s mission to translate longevity science into practical tools for practitioners. Renee Fitton, Director of Education and Healthcare Sales at ProLon/L-Nutra, followed with an overview of the evolving evidence base for autophagy, from early theory and animal data to emerging human outcomes and metabolic biomarker improvements.

Longevity doctor Dr Mayoni shared a female-focused clinical perspective, highlighting links between hormones, inflammation, mitochondrial health and metabolic flexibility, while Layla Gordon, UK Nutrition Lead, emphasised the importance of structured, multi-factor programmes incorporating nutrition, sleep, stress management and movement.

SKNCODE LONDON LAUNCH

Annabel’s, London

Annabel’s set the scene for the launch of SKNCode London, as Dr Mihaela Gulyas hosted an intimate lunch for leading voices in beauty, longevity and wellness. Guests, including editor Kezia and former editor Anna Dobbie, gathered for an afternoon of exceptional food, lively discussion and industry insight.

Adding an interactive element to the event, Aura skin scanners offered complimentary skin analysis, allowing attendees to explore their skin health while learning more about the clinic’s clinically led approach to aesthetics. A thoughtfully curated goody bag completed the experience.

Reflecting on the milestone, Dr Gulyas said: “It was a truly special moment to launch SKNCode London at Annabel’s. I feel proud of what we’ve built and grateful to share our vision for clinically led aesthetics with such an incredible audience of the most influential voices in beauty, longevity and wellness.”

REVITALASH PRODUCT LAUNCH

Tamarind, Mayfair

Editor Kezia Parkins attended an intimate evening at Michelin-star restaurant Tamarind in Mayfair hosted by RevitaLash Cosmetics in collaboration with renowned aesthetic artist Shavata Singh, celebrating the future of elevated lash and brow care.

The refined event brought together industry guests for a night of beauty insight and indulgence, centred around the unveiling of the new Lash & Brow Facial, a luxury treatment concept positioned to redefine specialist eye-area services in 2026. Designed to enhance both aesthetic results and hair health, the treatment reflected the growing demand for holistic, results-driven brow and lash protocols within clinic and salon settings.

A highlight of the evening was a live demonstration led by Shavata Singh, who showcased the new treatment. Guests were also treated to an exclusive conversation with the wonderful Lori Jacobus, President and Global CMO of RevitaLash Cosmetics, who shared the inspiration behind the collaboration and outlined the brand’s broader innovation strategy for the year ahead.
