AMWC Dubai 2026: Galderma Reinforces Its Injectable Aesthetics Leadership

ZUG, Switzerland--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Galderma (SIX: GALD) will showcase data from its leading innovative Injectable Aesthetics portfolio at the Aesthetic & Anti-Aging Medicine World Congress (AMWC) taking place in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE), from October 21-23, 2026. The company will present eight scientific abstracts, alongside a symposium and six Meet-the-Expert sessions, all highlighting the expanding benefits of Relfydess, Sculptra, and the Restylane range.1-8 Together, the data demonstrate Galderma’s commitment to meeting the evolving needs of patients and healthcare professionals through innovation that addresses growing needs, from menopause-related skin changes and regenerative aesthetic solutions, to body indications.

Data across face and body indications showcase the power of Sculptra and Restylane
Data on Sculptra, the first proven regenerative biostimulator, will be shared at AMWC Dubai, following its approval in the UAE expanding its current clinical application for the face to include key body areas: the gluteal area, posterior thighs and décolletage.9 Guidance from an international consensus panel of 11 experts will be presented, outlining evidence-based recommendations on appropriate combination strategies across approved body indications.1 The recommendations highlight the complementary benefits of Sculptra and Restylane SkinboostersTM in the posterior thighs, and gluteal area, for comprehensive body rejuvenation.1

Data from Restylane ShaypeTM – the first-and-only hyaluronic acid (HA) shaper developed with novel NASHA-HD™ technology as well as expanded indications for Restylane LyftTM and Restylane VolymeTM* are being presented with clinical evidence in the chin, jawline, temples, and lower face.2 Across four studies, Restylane delivered well-tolerated, effective, and long-lasting aesthetic improvements in multiple facial regions, consistently achieving high responder rates and high subject satisfaction.2

Additionally, addressing the growing demand for body rejuvenation, data evaluating the effectiveness and safety of Restylane Skinboosters for correction of moderate-to-severe wrinkles in the décolletage will be shared at the congress, noting that the product was well tolerated and highly efficacious, with high patient satisfaction.3

In a dedicated symposium, international experts will discuss best practices for use of Galderma’s Injectable Aesthetics portfolio for the body through the AART™ (Assessment, Anatomy, Range, and Treatment) of Body - a patient-centric technique to evaluate needs and create structured individualized treatment plans. Content will highlight the UAE expanded indications for Sculptra in the gluteal area, posterior thighs, and décolletage.9 The symposium will take place Thursday, October 22, from 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM GST, in Baniyas ballroom 1.

Galderma’s Injectable Aesthetics portfolio addresses diverse trends and rising new patient segments
Galderma will also share insights from a global survey of over 4,300 women across nine countries on menopause-related skin changes and aesthetic treatment considerations.4 Biostimulators and dermal fillers were the most frequently considered treatments for menopause-related facial and skin changes, with 80% of patients looking for information on Sculptra, and 75% for information on the Restylane range.4

Congress data also reinforces Sculptra’s ability to deliver long-term improvements in the mechanical properties of the skin, through volume restoration, improved elasticity and skin thickness.5 Seven experts evaluated the biostimulatory properties of Sculptra, with consensus on its key role in the regenerative aesthetic field.5

Relfydess delivers continued efficacy across facial indications
Data from the RELAX and EXPRESSION imaging trials confirmed early and sustained improvements in wrinkle morphology and dynamic skin strain in frown lines (glabellar lines) and crow’s feet (lateral canthal lines) following treatment with Relfydess.6 These findings reinforce that Relfydess delivers a rapid onset, durable efficacy, and measurable improvements in both patient-reported outcomes and skin dynamics.6

Pooled phase III study data for Relfydess to be presented shows improvement in moderate-to-severe frown lines and crow’s feet for both toxin-naïve and previously treated patients.7 Galderma will also present expert-led consensus recommendations that address key unmet needs in real-world clinical practice, offering clear, practical guidance for optimal dosing, injection patterns and treatment planning with Relfydess.8
