From miRNA to Mitochondria: The New Frontier of Beauty Innovation

Under the overarching PCT theme — “Innovate. Integrate. Elevate.” — the Chengdu forum focuses on aesthetic and regenerative medicine, exosomes, mitochondrial anti-aging, and scalp microbiome research. Leveraging Chengdu’s position as the “Capital of Aesthetic Medicine,” the forum collaborates with global leaders to decode cellular-level anti-aging technologies.

Unlike conventional marketing-driven events, this closed-door forum prioritizes scientific depth and industry-academia collaboration. 

Participating institutions include:

• LVMH Beauty Asia R&D
• Dermalogica (Unilever Group)
• Proya Group
• Amorepacific Research Institute (China)
• Chengdu Institute of Biology, Chinese Academy of Sciences
• Beijing Technology and Business University
• Northwest A&F University

Key Focus Areas

Cellular Anti-Aging: miRNA & Mitochondria

The next frontier of anti-aging is shifting from collagen stimulation to genetic and cellular regulation.

• LVMH will share frontier miRNA research and its potential application in regulating skin aging at the molecular level.
• Proya will present the commercialization pathway of mitochondrial anti-aging technologies.
• Dermalogica and Northwest A&F University will explore “Skin Longevity Formulations,” balancing efficacy and tolerability through mechanism-driven design.

Scalp Microbiome: The Emerging Growth Engine

While facial microbiome care has matured, scalp microbiome research represents a new blue ocean.

Clinical dermatology experts will decode the microbiome barrier’s role in scalp health and hair vitality, while Amorepacific discusses its integrated “whole-skin health” strategy.

Natural Active Ingredients: From Source to Mechanism

Scientific exploration of plant-derived and fermentation-based actives will be addressed by CAS researchers and academic experts, emphasizing transparency, traceability, and mechanistic validation.

Strategic Significance

As China’s “Capital of Medical Aesthetics,” Chengdu offers a mature industry ecosystem, strong regulatory support, and high-level scientific resources, positioning it as a critical hub linking fundamental research with commercialization.

PCT Chengdu exemplifies the PCT mission:
Connecting science with market transformation.

About PCT 2026

The PCT (Personal Care Technology) Series, organized by Ringier Trade Media/happiChina Magazine, is one of Asia’s leading professional platforms dedicated to advancing personal care science and technology. Over the years, PCT has evolved into a high-level industry forum that connects global brand leaders, R&D experts, academic researchers, ingredient suppliers, and regulatory authorities.

Through a combination of international conferences, innovation awards, and digital learning platforms, PCT fosters collaboration across the entire value chain — from fundamental skin biology research to product commercialization and global market expansion.

In 2026, PCT expands into a full-year, multi-city, and multinational series, covering China and Southeast Asia, further strengthening its role as a bridge between scientific discovery and industry transformation.
