Specializing in the treatment of skin conditions such as actinic keratoses and impetigo, Biofrontera focuses on photodynamic therapy (PDT) and topical antibiotics.
One of the company's flagship products is Ameluz®, a prescription drug used in combination with the BF-RhodoLED® lamp series for PDT.

Another key product in their portfolio is Xepi®, an antibiotic for treating impetigo, a bacterial skin infection.
In recent news, Biofrontera announced record high revenues for 2023, achieving approximately $34.3 million, up 19% compared to 2022.

The company also reported a successful securities purchase agreement that raised up to $16 million, aimed at advancing product development and expanding indications for Ameluz.
Biofrontera's forward-looking strategy includes reducing the transfer price of Ameluz from 50% to 25% for 2024 and 2025, taking control of U.S. clinical trials, and making significant strides in regulatory approvals with the FDA. For instance, the FDA has commenced a substantive review of a supplementary New Drug Application to increase the approved dosage of Ameluz, indicating the potential for broader usage.
