Co-chaired by Valerie M. Harvey, MD, MPH, FAAD and Janiene Luke, MD, FAAD, the SOCS Media Day 2021 featured eleven nationally and globally recognized members, who addressed key issues and developments in medical and aesthetic dermatology, healthcare, and society, of interest to people of color.

Four highly informative sessions were presented by the SOCS expert teams as follows:

Following the insightful and info-rich presentations, the SOCS Media Day program offered a Q & A session and a Virtual Expo, which will remain live until November 2022. A record-setting number of health, medical, beauty and lifestyle editors, writers and content producers representing top dermatology, medical and consumer news outlets participated in this exciting media event.
