Company name : PHARMASKIN LTD.

TECHNOLOGICAL FIELD
Biotechnology

KEY WORDS
Dandruff, Shampoo, Cosmetics,
OTC

PROJECT SUMMARY
PHARMASKIN aims to treat common skin disorders, such as dandruff,
by innovative strategies. The treatments are based on new
indications of well-established drugs or cosmetics and
pharmacological synergistic compositions. The company develops
two antidandruff shampoo products, cosmetic and medicated, with
different formulations.
The first target to be approached was dandruff (seborrheic
dermatitis of the scalp, SD), a common chronic skin disease. The
yearly market is evaluated at US$ 500 in the USA only. No
product on the market has achieved supremacy, due to SD chronic
nature and high recurrence rate. A synergistic drug approach was
tested and patented after successful pilot studies, of both
cosmetical and medicated formulations. The company developed and
completed the formulation of a cosmetic antidandruff shampoo and
starts human testing.

ADVANTAGES:
More effective than the leading cosmetic and
medicated brand. Long term efficacy predicted.
