Veozah the New Drug for Menopausal Hot Flashes + SkinVive the New Dermal Filler — Xtalks Life Science Podcast Ep. 111

In this episode, Vera talked about the US Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) approval of Veozah (fezolinetant), the new type of drug for menopausal hot flashes and night sweats. It is estimated that around 60 to 80 percent of women experience vasomotor symptoms (hot flashes, night sweats, etc.) during or after the menopausal transition. Importantly, vasomotor symptoms can have a substantial impact on daily activities and overall quality of life. The team discussed Veozah and the benefits of this drug for women’s health.

Vera and the team also discussed the recent FDA approval of Allergan Aesthetics’ new hyaluronic acid product, SkinVive by Juvéderm, for achieving skin smoothness. SkinVive will be the first and only intradermal microdroplet injection of hyaluronic acid available in the US, representing a significant milestone in skincare innovation. The team discussed the benefits and novelty of the product, as well as their personal opinions of hyaluronic acid products for skincare and the costs of such treatments.
