Recently, the American Skin & Dermatology Standards Association (ASDSA), an independent non-profit international standards organization officially reviewed, legally registered and fully qualified in the State of Colorado, USA, was formally inaugurated. As a globally oriented, authoritative third-party institution dedicated to the entire industrial chain of skin health, dermatology, scientific skincare and professional skincare products, ASDSA takes the construction of an international industry standard system that is scientific, rigorous, unified, globally recognized and clinically implementable as its core mission. It is committed to promoting the comprehensive development of the global skin health cause, the transformation of dermatology applications, and the scientific skincare industry in a more standardized, scientific, professional, high-quality and sustainable manner, safeguarding the skin health of consumers worldwide and providing solid support for the orderly innovation and cross-border collaborative development of the global skincare industry.
ASDSA deeply relies on the mature and complete scientific research system, strict regulatory environment, world-leading testing technology and open and collaborative academic resources of the United States. It fully brings together top professional forces in global clinical dermatology research, basic skin science, skincare product formulation development, functional ingredient safety assessment, precision chemical testing, international regulatory compliance, quality management system construction and other fields. It has built a Dermatology Standard Research Laboratory in line with the world’s highest laboratory operation specifications, and established a full-chain, systematic and professional public service platform covering standard R&D, certification review, clinical verification, international exchanges, industry services, technical training and resource sharing. By filling the long-standing industry gap in the global skin health and scientific skincare field of a lack of a neutral, authoritative, professional, systematic and global unified standard-setting and authoritative certification service institution, ASDSA not only provides consumers worldwide with an authoritative scientific basis for choosing safe, effective, compliant and high-quality skincare products, reducing consumption decision-making risks and improving skin health protection, but also builds a fair, transparent, standardized and orderly market competition environment for global skincare brands, research institutions, manufacturing enterprises and upstream and downstream supply chain partners. It promotes the efficient circulation of high-quality products and technologies, and helps the global skin health and scientific skincare industry achieve long-term healthy, stable, collaborative and global development.
Against the background of the continuous improvement of global residents’ health awareness, the increasing popularity of scientific skincare concepts and the increasingly diversified demand for skin health, the global skin health and scientific skincare industry is showing a vigorous development trend of sustained rapid growth, continuous technological breakthroughs, increasingly abundant product categories and increasingly frequent cross-border trade and international circulation. Segments ranging from daily basic skincare, efficacy skincare and therapeutic skincare to medical auxiliary care, skin health management and dermatology clinical supporting care have achieved rapid expansion, becoming a highly dynamic and potential growth component of the global health industry. At the same time, the industry also faces a series of core pain points and practical challenges restricting long-term healthy development in the process of rapid growth: there are significant differences in skincare safety standards, ingredient usage specifications, efficacy evaluation systems, clinical verification requirements, production quality control and labeling claim rules among different countries and regions around the world, directly leading to high cross-border market access barriers, high compliance costs and low circulation efficiency; the industry’s product safety evaluation systems, efficacy verification methods and data credibility standards are uneven, a large number of products lack rigorous scientific support, and quality stability and use safety are difficult to be uniformly guaranteed; key links such as core skincare ingredients, formula systems, production processes and quality testing lack global unified standard guidelines, market claims are chaotic and competition order needs to be further improved; there is obvious information asymmetry between brands and consumers, making it difficult for consumers to accurately identify product safety, efficacy and compliance, with high professional selection costs and difficult consumption decisions. These problems not only seriously hinder the collaborative innovation and international development of the global skin health and scientific skincare industry, but also greatly limit the global layout and market expansion of high-quality professional brands with technical strength, product advantages and compliance capabilities.
As a pioneer, builder and leader in the global field of skin health and dermatology standards, ASDSA has always adhered to the core tenet of Rigor, Impartiality, Standard-Setting and Global Certification since its establishment. It maintains strict academic neutrality, professional independence and institutional public welfare, resolutely refrains from any commercial profit-making activities, and devotes all resources, funds and efforts to a series of public welfare and public service undertakings such as industry standard R&D, authoritative certification services, international academic and technical exchanges, high-standard laboratory construction, professional talent training and public industry resource sharing. As an independent, authoritative third-party international institution, ASDSA continuously promotes the unified formulation, mutual recognition, implementation promotion and continuous optimization of standards in the fields of global skin health, dermatology application and scientific skincare. It fully helps the global skincare industry achieve standardization, specialization, standardization and internationalization upgrading, and promotes the entire industry to a new stage of healthier, more orderly and high-quality development.
ASDSA Expert Committee
To ensure that all standards formulated and all certification and technical services provided by ASDSA are highly scientific, absolutely authoritative, clinically practical, globally applicable and long-term forward-looking, ASDSA has specially established an international, high-level and cross-field Expert Committee composed of top professionals from the Americas, Europe, Asia and other regions with advanced skin science research and skincare industries. The Expert Committee fully covers the core fields of the entire industrial chain of skin health and scientific skincare, including clinical dermatology diagnosis and treatment, basic skin science research, skin physiology and pathology research, scientific skincare formula development, efficacy and therapeutic ingredient analysis, skincare product safety assessment, dermatology testing technology and methodology research, international regulations and compliance systems, quality management system construction, industrial policy and market research. Through rigorous workflows such as long-term systematic scientific research, multi-center clinical data verification, cross-regional expert joint review and international standard comparison and optimization, the Expert Committee provides the most solid academic support, the most reliable technical guarantee and the most professional scientific guidance for the research, formulation, revision, verification, promotion, implementation and continuous upgrading of standards in all fields of global skin health, dermatology and scientific skincare. It ensures that every standard issued and every certification service launched by ASDSA has global recognition, industry guidance, practical operability and long-term leadership.
