Milan to host Innovation Beauty Lab focusing on longevity and menopause

The Innovation Beauty Lab (IBL) will return to the Crowne Plaza Milano Linate on October 11 and 12, 2026. The event features the 42nd Congress of Les Nouvelles Esthétiques Italia, marking the 50th anniversary of the magazine.

Under the theme ‘Beyond Aesthetics – Biological transformations, consumer evolution and redefining value’, the congress will examine the intersection of medicine, sociology, and market trends. Key scientific discussions will focus on biological changes related to aging, specifically the ‘collagen cliff’—the sharp decline in collagen production during menopause—as well as inflammation management and endocrine balances.

Distinguished experts, including Professor Nicoletta Di Simone from Humanitas and Professor Rossella Nappi from the University of Pavia and the International Menopause Society, are scheduled to lead sessions on gynecological and endocrine complexities.
