Still feeling so grateful after the inaugural ACAIC 2026.
What began as a shared vision between myself, Dr. Mukta Sachdev (), and Dr. Michael Gold () became such a meaningful day of learning, connection, and collaboration at the Harvard Club of New York City.
ACAIC was created to bring together a highly curated group of leaders in dermatology, aesthetics, clinical research, and innovation, and seeing that vision come to life was incredibly special.
