About

CUTANEON – Skin & Hair Innovations GmbH is a privately owned dermatology biotech translating breakthroughs in human skin and hair biology into first-in-class therapeutics and science-driven cosmeceuticals.

Founded by Professor Ralf Paus, CUTANEON is built on pioneering research in skin and hair biology and has established a strong scientific foundation in the discovery of previously underexplored biological pathways governing human skin physiology and regeneration.

CREDO & MISSION

CUTANEON’s mission is to revolutionize skin and hair product development by targeting untapped and potent regulatory pathways in human skin and hair follicles, including TRP ion channels, olfactory, and taste receptors. These ancient, evolutionarily conserved systems continue to regulate fundamental biological functions in human skin, yet remain a largely underexplored source of innovation in dermatology.

Guided by a science-first philosophy and powered by a unique human-centered discovery platform, CUTANEON generates clinically relevant data directly in human skin and hair follicles. This approach enables the identification of novel signaling pathways and active compounds with strong translational potential, supporting a growing pipeline of differentiated therapeutic and cosmeceutical product candidates.

Building on the pioneering, peer-reviewed work of our founder and key scientists, CUTANEON develops patent-protected innovations across key dermatological areas including hair growth, skin rejuvenation, and pigmentation. We advance selected programs toward clinical proof-of-concept while leveraging our platform across a broad range of dermatological indications through both internal development and strategic research collaborations.
