A biotechnology company co-founded by Lady Gaga is using living human skin and artificial intelligence to search for new skincare ingredients. Outer Biosciences, led by Gaga’s fiancé Michael Polansky, has developed a laboratory system that can keep donated, full-thickness human skin alive outside the body for more than 30 days. The company then uses machine learning to identify chemicals that might affect processes such as skin ageing, inflammation and repair, before testing the strongest candidates on the living tissue.

The British College of Aesthetic Medicine (BCAM) is urging patients to create an “aesthetic passport” – a permanent treatment history recording exactly what procedures they have undergone, what products or technologies were used and who carried them out. The guidance forms the latest development in BCAM’s Vet It Before You Get It public-safety campaign and is intended to address a significant gap in aesthetic medicine: patients frequently undergo repeated procedures over many years without maintaining an accessible record of their treatment history.

Patients are being encouraged to document what has been injected, product and batch information, technologies or devices used, the date of treatment and details of the clinic and practitioner. The information can be kept independently or through emerging digital platforms designed specifically for aesthetic treatment records, including Tweak and Aesthetic Passport.

Aesthetic patients can accumulate increasingly complex treatment histories. Someone may have botulinum toxin several times a year, dermal filler in different facial areas, energy-based treatments, skin boosters, biostimulators and other regenerative procedures – sometimes delivered by several practitioners or clinics over many years. Yet treatment information is typically held within the medical records of the individual clinic that performed the procedure rather than in one patient-controlled record. That can become particularly important when a patient changes practitioner, cannot remember which product was previously used or needs assessment following an adverse reaction or complication.

One in seven adults under 35 now believes that wearing sunscreen every day is more harmful to the skin than direct sun exposure.

Fuelled by TikTok, Instagram and the wider “anti-sunscreen” movement, claims that SPF is toxic, causes cancer or can be replaced by diet and gradual tanning are beginning to influence how people protect their skin.

The movement has gained traction at a time when the sunscreen industry is facing legitimate questions of its own. Australia’s scandal saw products labelled SPF50+ return significantly lower results during independent testing, leaving consumers unsure whether they could trust the number on the bottle.

As Frances van der Velden , founder of Australian sunscreen brand Airyday Skinscreens® told PBL Magazine:

“I think you start by being really honest and really human about it. Sunscreen is something people rely on every day, so when that trust is shaken, it becomes much bigger than just a product issue.”

To rebuild trust, brands need to work on education, transparency, proactive testing, clear explanations and genuine ownership of every claim made.

As van der Velden puts it: “You can outsource parts of the process, but you cannot outsource the responsibility.”

The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) is strengthening the safety warnings on all UK-authorised botulinum toxin type A products, making the rare risk of treatment-related botulism clearer to practitioners and patients.

The regulator has worked with manufacturers to revise the Summary of Product Characteristics and Patient Information Leaflet for every authorised botulinum toxin type A product, with the updates rolling out over the coming months. The change applies to products used in both cosmetic and medical treatments. In rare cases the toxin can spread beyond the injection site and cause iatrogenic botulism, a serious and potentially life-threatening condition, and the revised wording refers to this risk more explicitly and stresses the need for immediate medical attention. The risk of distant spread has appeared in UK product information since 2007, but it has not previously been set out in these terms.

The MHRA has stressed that this is not a product recall and that no licensed brand or batch has been identified as defective. It is a class-wide strengthening of safety communication, issued alongside a separate warning about the substantially greater risks of counterfeit and unauthorised products.

Symptoms can be delayed, which is central to the updated advice. They typically develop four to eight days after treatment but may take up to four weeks to appear. Warning signs include severe drooping of the upper eyelids, generalised muscle weakness, difficulty swallowing, slurred speech and breathing difficulties, and severe cases can require mechanical ventilation and intensive care. The MHRA says suspected botulism should be treated as a medical emergency, and that anyone experiencing difficulty swallowing, speaking or breathing after treatment should seek immediate help rather than wait for symptoms to pass. Risk is higher in patients with neurological disorders or a history of dysphagia or aspiration, where high doses are given, and where a product is used off-label or injected into an unapproved site.

Patmos Aktis, a Luxury Collection Resort & Spa, Greece , a Luxury Collection Resort & Spa, has unveiled its renewed ANASA Wellness & Spa, following the resort’s full renovation and repositioning under Marriott’s The Luxury Collection. Set on Grikos Bay on the Greek island of Patmos, the spa reopens with a menu of new signature rituals, a three-brand product partnership and a seasonal wellness programme running through the summer.

The name ANASA derives from the Greek word for breath, and the concept draws on the spiritual heritage of Patmos, the rhythm of the Aegean and the island’s long association with reflection and renewal. The renovated facilities include an indoor pool, sauna, steam room, relaxation lounge and three treatment rooms, one of which is a spa suite, alongside fully equipped changing areas and a dedicated beauty salon offering nail services. The ANASA Gym, a 24-hour fitness and movement studio, houses cardio equipment, strength-training facilities, functional training tools and free weights.

Manos Niotakis, General Manager of Patmos Aktis, a Luxury Collection Resort & Spa, said: “ANASA Wellness & Spa was envisioned as a natural extension of the spirit of Patmos: an island that invites reflection, balance and renewal. More than simply offering exceptional treatments, our ambition was to create a space where guests can truly disconnect from the pace of everyday life and reconnect with themselves. Every element of the experience has been thoughtfully curated to reflect the tranquillity, authenticity and timeless beauty of our destination.”
