THE WHAT? Shiseido has named Alberto Noe as CEO for the EMEA region, effective immediately. Noe replaces Franck Marilly, who has been promoted to EMEA Chairman to organise and oversee the work of the Board of Directors.
THE DETAILS According to a report published by Fashion Network, Noe joined the J-beauty giant in 2013 as Country Manager, Italy from L’Oreal and was appointed Chief Business Officer, EMEA in 2019. In 2023 he took on the role of Deputy Managing Director, EMEA.
THE WHY? Shiseido’s press release on the personnel change was as brief and to the point as it gets but it’s fair to assume that Noe was chosen for the role due to his experience as a member of the Executive Committee.
Clinical aesthetics products refer to a category of products used in the field of medical aesthetics or cosmetic dermatology. These products are typically designed and formulated to be used under the supervision of healthcare professionals, such as dermatologists, plastic surgeons, or trained aestheticians. They are distinct from over-the-counter cosmetics in that they often contain active ingredients or formulations that require expertise in their application or administration.
Examples of clinical aesthetics products include:
-
Dermal Fillers: Injectable substances used to add volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial contours. Examples include hyaluronic acid fillers like Juvederm and Restylane.
-
Botulinum Toxin (Botox): Injectables that temporarily paralyze facial muscles to reduce the appearance of wrinkles caused by repetitive movements, such as frown lines and crow's feet.
-
Chemical Peels: Solutions applied to the skin to exfoliate and improve its texture. They can treat acne, pigmentation issues, and signs of aging.
-
Laser and Light Therapies: Devices that emit focused light or laser energy to treat various skin conditions, including acne, scars, and signs of aging.
-
Prescription Skincare Products: Formulations containing active ingredients like retinoids (vitamin A derivatives), hydroquinone, or prescription-strength antioxidants to address specific skin concerns under medical supervision.
