GC Green Cross Wellbeing Hosts 'Skin-Immune All-in-one Solution Symposium': Shedding Light on Skin Disorder Treatment with a Functional Medicine-based Immune Approach
Recently, the 'Skin-Immune All-in-one Solution Symposium' held at the Premier Oakwood Hotel in Seoul, COEX, concluded successfully with great interest as over 200 medical professionals from across the nation gathered. Hosted by GC Green Cross Wellbeing, the event featured significant presentations highlighting the relationship between immunity and skin disorders from a functional medicine perspective.
Approach Strategies of Functional Medicine and Immune-Skin Disorders
The symposium was conducted with three functional medicine specialists introducing various immunological approaches and actual clinical cases. Customized treatments, including the use of MD moisturizers, antioxidant therapy, and immune-activating injections, were shared, drawing much interest from attendees.
The first presentation by Ji Young-mi, Director of Seoul St. Mary’s Neurosurgery, emphasized using products without antigens (haptens) for immunocompromised patients, such as children, as this could be effective for symptom improvement. This is interpreted as an essential treatment strategy for patients with easily damaged skin barriers.
Jang Jung-mi, Director of Slimmi Clinic, followed by stressing the need for immune factor supplementation through antioxidant therapy, thymosin alpha-1 injections, and Laennec, in patients with skin disorders due to immune suppression. The presentation indicated the need for an approach that goes beyond single symptom treatment to fundamentally improve the immune system.
Additionally, Lee Jae-hwan, Director of Hyosarang Family Medicine, in his topic 'Finding Answers in Immunity for Senile Skin Diseases', mentioned the problems of decreased skin regeneration and increased moisture loss in elderly patients, underscoring the necessity of immune-focused treatments accompanied by moisturizing and nutritional therapy. This was noted as a tailored immune treatment model for elderly skin disease patients.
A Venue for Field-centered Immune Therapy Discussions
Concluding the symposium, an organizer explained, "This event was a meaningful place to share and contemplate skin disorders frequently encountered in general clinics from an immune-focused perspective." The event was structured in a way that could aid attendees in practical work with case-based presentations and practical immune treatment strategies.
After the functional medicine experts' presentations, limitations and needs experienced by medical staff on the ground were actively discussed during the Q&A and discussion sessions. The focus on how immune-centered treatment can be applied in real practice beyond mere theories was a notable point.
The diverse clinical cases and immune therapy strategies covered in this symposium opened up new possibilities for skin disorder treatment and provided directions for alternative treatments for practical medical staff. It is hoped that opportunities for such knowledge sharing among experts will continue in the future.
In Conclusion
This symposium was a venue to view the impact and possibilities of immune therapy on skin disorder treatment through functional medicine. The sharing of evidence-based clinical cases and treatment strategies was significant, and active discussions on practical applications took place.
Future continuous exploration and discussions on the integrated treatment of immunity and skin disorders are desired.
