Medical Update Luncheon 2026

The Next Breakthrough in Skin Science: The Science of (plated)

The Alice Mayo Society cordially invites you to the Medical Update Luncheon 2026.

We are honored to welcome two distinguished guest speakers who will deliver an in‑depth presentation on the groundbreaking translational research that led to the development of (plated) Skin Science, an advanced regenerative regimen created by physician‑scientists at Mayo Clinic. As co‑founders of (plated) Skin Science, Dr. Behfar and Dr. Wyles will provide a comprehensive overview of the scientific foundations, discovery process, and disciplined clinical evaluation that underpin this innovative, evidence‑based technology. Their lecture will trace the evolution of decades of regenerative medicine research into a clinically validated skincare platform, offering attendees an opportunity to engage directly with the scientific leaders responsible for bringing this novel approach to patient care and skin health.

Due to limited space, we kindly request your RSVP or
