Alexandra Tretiakova, general manager of UK and Ireland for Galderma
Why is 2021 an important year?
This year, we’re celebrating Galderma’s 40th anniversary and will be announcing a series of new initiatives, product launches and clinical support programmes, as part of our ongoing commitment to drive innovation, support and skills within the industry. It is also Restylane’s 25th anniversary – so lots of important milestones to celebrate!
COVID and lockdowns have hit clinics hard – how is Galderma supporting practitioners?
We’re delighted to be launching the Galderma Aesthetic Injector Network (GAIN) clinical training and mentor support initiative. GAIN is a network focusing on technical training and complication management support through webinars, face-to-face sessions and private online groups. We’ve launched a business transformation webinar to help practitioners evaluate and improve their clinic – from branding and social media, to front of house. We are also running commercial offers on the Restylane and SkinBooster portfolios to help clinics get back up quickly once lockdown lifts.
Sculptra is relaunching this year – what’s new?
The Sculptra treatment protocols have been updated with new guidance to maximise patient results and minimise complications and will be rolled out by UK KOLs among experienced aesthetic professionals. The new rollout will be supported by the GAIN programme, alongside increased consumer PR and marketing to raise patient awareness of this innovative treatment option.
What will be the next evolution in toxins?
Consumers are demanding more from toxin treatments – they want faster onset of effects and many practitioners want easier formulations and better tools for treatment.
How will Galderma shape the industry this year?
We are actively bringing new solutions to the market, whilst continuing to drive excellence within our existing portfolio. We see our role as a partnership witth practitioners – not only focusing on new products, but upskilling them with the tools, support and training to help them achieve success.
