Comments: Galderma is a privately-held company and the world’s largest independent dermatology company, present in approximately 100 countries. Its portfolio includes sophisticated brands and services across aesthetics, consumer care and prescription medicine.
In February 2022, Galderma and Taro Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. signed a definitive agreement for Taro to acquire Alchemee, formerly The Proactiv Company. The agreement includes Alchemee’s business and assets around the world, including the Proactiv brand.
Also making news for Galderma in 2022 is its leading mass market brand Cetaphil. The sensitive skin care leader has revamped its skin care products with “new and improved” formulas featuring a dermatologist-backed blend of niacinamide (vitamin B3), panthenol (vitamin B5) and hydrating glycerin to improve skin’s overall resilience. The brand debuted its Sensitive Skin Awareness Month this past March, a digitally focused marketing campaign that arms consumers with science-backed guidance on how to identify, care for, and treat sensitive skin of all kinds.
