Track: GI Health & Skin

Explore the dynamic and emerging relationship between gastrointestinal health and skin conditions. This session delves into how gut microbiome imbalances, digestive dysfunctions, and systemic inflammation can directly influence skin disorders such as acne, rosacea, psoriasis, eczema, and premature aging. Participants will engage with cutting-edge research, holistic treatments, and real-world clinical applications.
Gut-Skin Axis
In dermatology, this session examines how gut and skin communicate via immune and neuroendocrine pathways. It explores how disruptions in the gut can manifest as inflammatory skin conditions like psoriasis, acne, or eczema, highlighting the skin as a mirror of internal health.
Gut Dysbiosis and Leaky Gut
This segment focuses on how an imbalanced gut microbiome and increased intestinal permeability can provoke systemic inflammation and immune dysregulation, often presenting in dermatologic conditions such as rosacea, atopic dermatitis, and chronic urticaria.
GI Conditions like IBS, IBD, and Celiac Disease
Dermatologists frequently encounter skin signs of systemic GI issues—this session addresses cutaneous manifestations like dermatitis herpetiformis (in celiac disease), erythema nodosum (in IBD), and other inflammatory lesions linked to gastrointestinal disorders.
Microbiota-Targeted Therapies
This topic explores how modulating the gut microbiome through probiotics, synbiotics, and fecal microbiota transplantation can serve as adjunctive or preventative strategies in managing skin diseases such as acne vulgaris, seborrheic dermatitis, and psoriasis.
Impact of Diet and GI-Focused Nutrition
Here, dermatologists will learn about evidence-based nutritional interventions that influence the gut-skin axis—such as anti-inflammatory diets, elimination diets, and prebiotic-rich foods—to help patients with acne, eczema, and sensitive skin.
Pharmacologic and Holistic Strategies
A balanced approach combining dermatologic therapies (topical, systemic) with gut-supportive modalities such as herbal remedies, stress reduction, and detox diets. This integrative session encourages dermatologists to consider GI health in therapeutic planning.
Gastroenterology and Dermatology
This session bridges specialties, emphasizing collaborative care where both gastroenterologists and dermatologists contribute to diagnosing and treating disorders with overlapping symptoms—such as skin lesions in Crohn’s disease or nutritional deficiencies in malabsorption syndromes.
Clinical Cases
Real-world dermatology case studies where interventions targeting GI health led to remarkable skin improvements. These examples underscore the practical benefits of gut-focused strategies in managing chronic or treatment-resistant dermatological conditions.
