The biotech buzz is well and truly taking over skin care – a section of the market already forecasted to hit US$8.74bn in 2025, with Proficient Market Insights projecting the global longevity biotech market to touch $22.97bn by 2034.

“What longevity really represents is a shift in how we think about skin,” she said.
