Research Area

  1. As a medical doctor with special interested in Aesthetic Medicine, my primary research interests revolve around understanding the role Aesthetic Medicine and Regenerative medicine that contribute to human health and disease, and applying that information to improve human wellbeing. 
  2. Mechanisms that influence the rejuvenation of skin cells:I am interested in the molecular mechanisms of skin aging which is essential to identify new therapeutic targets and develop new agents, with a particular emphasis on the topical modalities. Also, identifying pathways involved in delaying skin aging in response to external stimuli.
