About SkinBioTherapeutics plc

SkinBioTherapeutics is a life science company focused on skin health. The Group's proprietary platform technology, SkinBiotix®, is based upon discoveries made by the translational dermatology team at the University of Manchester.

The Group's foundation business is targeting the skin healthcare market via five pillars, the most advanced of which are cosmetic skincare (SkinBiotix) and food supplements to modulate the immune system by harnessing the gut-skin axis (AxisBiotix). The cosmetic pillar has a partnership with Croda plc and the SkinBiotix active ingredient, Zenakine™ was launched in April 2025. The Group's first in-house product, AxisBiotix-Ps™, is a food supplement to address the symptoms of mild to moderate psoriasis.

The Group is also acting as a consolidator and is making acquisitions in complementary areas such as skin care and cosmetic applications, that also bring new distribution and geographical platforms, and manufacturing capabilities through which it can funnel its in-house pillar products. 

The Company listed on AIM in April 2017 and is based in Newcastle, UK. For more information, visit: www.skinbiotherapeutics.com.
