At Nestlé Skin Health's SHIELD Center, we believe great ideas deserve a chance to be developed. That’s why we’re encouraging young healthcare entrepreneurs to learn more and sign up for @Nestlé HENRi challenge, focused on engaging patients for better skin health:

Our skin is a living barrier which keeps us “in touch” with the external world and protects us from external threats.

To better understand skin diseases, knowledge of the skin’s structure is key. Discover our new tool, the virtual skin biopsy which illustrates the microscopic view of the skin in a simple, engaging way that could be understood and shared with all of us! https://lnkd.in/fUnT_av  

Environmental factors such as pollution and UV radiation are closely linked to many skin conditions.

Taking these steps can help preserve your skin as you age. Find out more about it. https://lnkd.in/grwEiTN

Healthy skin is a sign of overall health and can contribute to better mental and emotional health. When healthy, its layers work hard to protect us, but when compromised, its ability to work as an effective barrier is impaired. The infographics we’ve developed reflect and explain science-based evidence on skin conditions: https://lnkd.in/g3TJ2pG
