Conference Abstracts from the 12th Asian Scientific Meeting of Pediatric Dermatology in Manila, Philippines, November 5–7, 2025

The conference abstracts from the 12th Asian Scientific Meeting of Pediatric Dermatology highlight various pediatric dermatological conditions, such as psoriasis, alopecia areata, and epidermolysis bullosa. Key findings include the complexity of diagnosing and managing pediatric psoriasis due to its heterogeneity and the critical role of early recognition in preventing complications. A notable case of alopecia areata with trichotillomania underscores the necessity of a multimodal treatment approach that integrates dermatologic and psychosocial care. Overall, the abstracts stress the importance of early diagnosis and targeted therapy to enhance outcomes and quality of life for children with these conditions.
