PROXY STATEMENT FOR THE
2019 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THIS PROXY MATERIAL AND VOTING

Why am I receiving these materials?

We sent you this Proxy Statement and the enclosed proxy card because the Board of Directors of STRATA Skin Sciences, Inc. (“we”, “us”, “our”, or “the Company”) is soliciting your proxy to vote at our 2019 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”). You are invited to attend the Annual Meeting, and we request that you vote on the proposals described in this Proxy Statement. You do not need to attend the meeting to vote your shares. Instead, you may simply complete, sign and return the enclosed proxy card, or you may grant a proxy to vote your shares by means of the telephone or on the Internet.

We intend to mail this Proxy Statement and the accompanying proxy card together with our 2018 Annual Report to Stockholders on or about November 26, 2019 to all stockholders of record on November 18, 2019 entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. Each share of common stock outstanding on the record date will be entitled to one vote.

Who can vote at the Annual Meeting?

Only stockholders of record at the close of business on November 18, 2019 will be entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. On this record date, there were 32,903,287 shares of common stock outstanding and entitled to vote.

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name

If, on November 18, 2019, your shares were registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, then you are a stockholder of record. As a stockholder of record, you may vote in person at the Annual Meeting or vote by proxy.

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker or Bank

If, on November 18, 2019, your shares were held not in your name, but rather in an account at a brokerage firm, bank, dealer, or other similar organization, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” and these proxy materials are being forwarded to you by that organization. The organization holding your account is considered to be the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the Annual Meeting. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker or other agent on how to vote the shares in your account. You are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting. Since you are not the stockholder of record, however, you may not vote your shares in person at the Annual Meeting unless you request and obtain a valid legal proxy from your broker or other agent.

What am I voting on?

There are two matters scheduled for a vote:

1 election of seven directors; and

2 ratification of Marcum LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019.

How do I vote?

You may either vote “For” all the nominees to the Board of Directors or you may “Withhold” your vote for any nominee you specify. For each of the other matters you may vote “For” or “Against” or abstain from voting. Procedures for voting are fairly simple:

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name

If you are a stockholder of record, you may vote in person at the Annual Meeting, or vote by proxy using the enclosed proxy card or via the Internet or telephone (see “Voting Via the Internet or by Telephone” below). If you vote by proxy, your shares will be voted as you specify on the proxy card. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we urge you to vote by proxy to ensure your vote is counted. You may still attend the Annual Meeting and vote in person if you have already voted by proxy.

1

• To vote in person, come to the Annual Meeting, and we will give you a ballot when you arrive.

• To vote using the enclosed proxy card, simply complete, sign and date the enclosed proxy card and return it promptly in the envelope provided. If you return your signed proxy card to us before the Annual Meeting, we will vote your shares as you direct.

Voting Via the Internet or by Telephone

Stockholders may grant a proxy to vote their shares by means of the telephone or via the Internet. The laws of the State of Delaware, under which we are incorporated, specifically permit electronically transmitted proxies, provided that each such proxy contains or is submitted with information from which the Inspector of Elections can determine that such proxy was authorized by the stockholder.

The telephone and Internet voting procedures below are designed to authenticate stockholders’ identities, to allow stockholders to grant a proxy to vote their shares and to confirm that stockholders’ instructions have been recorded properly. Stockholders granting a proxy to vote via the Internet should understand that there may be costs associated with electronic access, such as usage charges from Internet access providers and telephone companies, which must be borne by the stockholder.

Stockholders of record may go to www.proxyvote.com to grant a proxy to vote their shares by means of the Internet. They will be required to provide the control number contained on their proxy cards. Any stockholder using a touch-tone telephone may also grant a proxy to vote shares by calling 1 -800-690-6903 and following the operator’s instructions.

General Information for All Shares Voted Via the Internet or by Telephone

Votes submitted via the Internet or by telephone must be received by 11:59 p.m. EST on December 29, 2019. Submitting your proxy via the Internet or by telephone will not affect your right to vote in person should you decide to attend the Annual Meeting.

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of Broker or Bank

If you are a beneficial owner of shares registered in the name of your broker, bank, or other agent, you should have received a proxy card and voting instructions with these proxy materials from that organization rather than from us. Simply complete and mail the proxy card or voting instructions as instructed by your broker, bank or other agent to ensure that your vote is counted. To vote in person at the Annual Meeting, you must obtain a valid legal proxy from your broker, bank, or other agent. Follow the instructions from your broker, bank or other agent included with these proxy materials, or contact your broker, bank or other agent to request a proxy form.

Most beneficial owners whose stock is held in street name receive instructions for granting proxies from their banks, brokers or other agents, rather than the proxy card.

How many votes do I have?

On each matter to be voted upon, you have one vote for each share of our common stock you own as of November 18, 2019.

What if I return a proxy card but do not make specific choices?

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name

If you are a stockholder of record and you sign and return a proxy card without giving specific voting instructions, then the proxy holders will vote your shares in the manner recommended by the Board of Directors on the matters presented in this Proxy Statement and as the proxy holders may determine in their discretion for any other matters properly presented for a vote at the Annual Meeting.

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of Broker or Bank

If your shares are held in an account at a bank, brokerage firm, broker-dealer or other similar organization, then you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name. In that case, you will have received these proxy materials from that organization holding your account and, as a beneficial owner, you have the right to instruct your broker, bank, trustee, or nominee how to vote the shares held in your account. If no voting instructions are given, your broker

2

or nominee has discretionary authority to vote your shares on your behalf on routine matters as determined in accordance with NYSE Rule 452 by The New York Stock Exchange. A “broker non-vote” results on a matter when your broker or nominee returns a proxy but does not vote on a particular proposal because it does not have discretionary authority to vote on that proposal and has not received voting instructions from you. We believe that your broker or nominee may not have discretionary voting power with respect to Proposal No. 1 to be considered at this meeting. You may not vote shares held in street name at the Annual Meeting unless you obtain a legal proxy from that organization holding your account.

Who is paying for this proxy solicitation?

We will pay for the entire cost of soliciting proxies. In addition to these mailed and posted proxy materials, we will bear the cost of proxies solicited by the Board of Directors. In addition to the solicitation of proxies by mail, solicitation may be made personally or by telephone or electronic communication by our directors, officers and employees, none of whom will receive additional compensation for these services. We will also reimburse brokers and other nominees for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with distributing forms of proxies and proxy materials to the beneficial owners of common stock.

What does it mean if I receive more than one proxy card?

If you receive more than one proxy card, your shares are registered in more than one name or are registered in different accounts. Please complete, sign and return each proxy card to ensure that all of your shares are voted.

Can I change my vote after submitting my proxy?

Yes. You may revoke your proxy at any time before the final vote at the meeting. If you are the record holder of your shares, you may revoke your proxy in any one of four ways:

• you may submit a proxy with a later date that is received by us prior to the Annual Meeting;

• you may send a written notice, dated later than the proxy, that you are revoking your proxy to our Secretary at 5 Walnut Grove Drive, Suite 140, Horsham, Pennsylvania 19044 that is received by us prior to the Annual Meeting;

• you may vote by telephone or via the Internet; or

• you may attend the Annual Meeting and vote in person. Simply attending the Annual Meeting will not, by itself, revoke your proxy.

If your shares are held by your broker or bank as a nominee or agent, you must follow the instructions provided by your broker or bank.

When are stockholder proposals due for next year’s annual meeting?

Under Rule 14a-8 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), our stockholders may present proper proposals for inclusion in our Proxy Statement and for consideration at the next annual meeting of stockholders by submitting their proposals to us in a timely manner. In order to be considered for inclusion in the Proxy Statement distributed to stockholders prior to the annual meeting of stockholders in the year 2020, a stockholder proposal must be received by us no later than July 30, 2020 and must otherwise comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-8.

In order to be considered for presentation at the annual meeting of stockholders in the year 2020, although not included in the Proxy Statement, a stockholder proposal or nomination(s) must comply with the requirements of our Fifth Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaws”) and be received by us not later than the close of business on the 90^th day nor earlier than the close of business on the 120^th day prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting; provided, however, that in the event that the date of the 2020 annual meeting is more than thirty (30) days before or more than sixty (60) days after December 30, 2020, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so delivered not earlier than the close of business on the one hundred and twentieth (120^th) day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the ninetieth (90^th) day prior to such annual meeting or the close of business on the tenth (10^th) day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made by us. For the 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, this period will begin on September 1, 2021, and end on October 1, 2021. In the event that the number of directors to be elected to the Board of Directors

3

of the Corporation is increased and there is no public announcement (as defined in the Bylaws) by the Company naming all of the nominees for director or specifying the size of the increased Board of Directors at least 75 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting (or, if the annual meeting is held more than 30 days before or 60 days after such anniversary date, at least 75 days prior to such annual meeting), a stockholder’s notice required by the Bylaws shall also be considered timely, but only with respect to nominees for any new positions created by such increase, if it shall be delivered not later than the close of business on the tenth (10^th) day following the day on which such public announcement is first made by the Company. Stockholder proposals should be delivered in writing to STRATA Skin Sciences, Inc., 5 Walnut Grove Drive, Suite 140, Horsham, Pennsylvania 19044, Attention: Secretary. A copy of our Bylaws may be obtained from us upon written request to the Secretary.

How are votes counted?

Votes will be counted by the Inspector of Elections appointed for the meeting, who will separately tabulate “For”, “Against” and “Withhold” votes, abstentions and broker non-votes.

How many votes are needed to approve each proposal?

• Proposal No. 1, the election of directors, the seven nominees receiving the most “For” votes (among votes properly cast in person or by proxy) will be elected. Broker non-votes will count towards the quorum but will have no effect on the outcome of the vote. Stockholders do not have the right to cumulate their votes for directors.

• Proposal No. 2, the ratification of Marcum LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019, must receive a “For” vote from the majority of shares present and entitled to vote either in person or by proxy to be approved. Abstentions will have the same effect as an “Against” vote. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the vote.

What is the quorum requirement?

A quorum of stockholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. A quorum will be present if at least one-third of the outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote are represented by votes at the Annual Meeting or by proxy. On the record date, there were 32,903,336 shares of common stock outstanding and entitled to vote.

Your shares will be counted towards the quorum only if you submit a valid proxy (or one is submitted on your behalf by your broker, bank or other nominee) or if you vote in person at the meeting or by telephone or via the Internet. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted towards the quorum requirement. If there is no quorum, the chairman of the meeting or a majority of the votes present at the Annual Meeting may adjourn the meeting to another date.

How can I find out the results of the voting at the Annual Meeting?

Preliminary voting results will be announced at the Annual Meeting. Final voting results will be published in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed by us within four business days following the Annual Meeting.

How can I obtain additional copies?

For additional copies of this Proxy Statement and the enclosed proxy card and 2018 Annual Report to Stockholders, you should contact our corporate office at STRATA Skin Sciences, Inc., 5 Walnut Grove Drive, Suite 140, Horsham, Pennsylvania 19044, Attention: Secretary, telephone (215) 619-3200.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Independence of the Board of Directors

As required under the listing standards of the NASDAQ Stock Market (“NASDAQ”), a majority of the members of a listed company’s Board of Directors must qualify as “independent,” as affirmatively determined by the Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors consults with our counsel to ensure that the Board of Director’s determinations are consistent with all relevant securities and other laws and regulations regarding the definition of “independent,” including those set forth in pertinent listing standards of NASDAQ, as are in effect from time to time.

Consistent with these considerations, after review of all relevant transactions or relationships between each director, or any of his or her family members, and us, its senior management and its independent registered public accounting firm, the Board of Directors has affirmatively determined that the majority of our directors and director nominees are independent directors within the meaning of the applicable NASDAQ listing standards. Except for Dr. Rafaeli, our President and Chief Executive Officer, and Mr. Navarro, who received consulting fees ending in 2017, all other current members of the Board of Directors are independent under the applicable listing standards of NASDAQ.

Board Leadership Structure

Our Board of Directors administers its risk oversight function as a whole by making risk oversight a matter of collective consideration. While management is responsible for identifying risks, our Board of Directors has charged the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors with evaluating financial and accounting risk, the Compensation/Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board of Directors with evaluating risks associated with employees and compensation. Investor-related risks are usually addressed by the Board as a whole.

The Board of Directors met twenty times during the last fiscal year. During the last fiscal year, the Audit Committee met five times, the Compensation/Nominating and Governance Committee met seven times and the Nominating and Governance Committee met five times. Prior to July 2019, the Nominating and Governance Committee was a separate committee. All directors attended at least 75% of the aggregate meetings of the Board of Directors and the committees on which they served that were held during the period in which they were a director and a committee member.

Information Regarding the Board of Directors and its Committees

Our Board of Directors has an Audit Committee and a Compensation/Nominating and Governance Committee. The following table provides membership information for each of these committees:

NAME	AUDIT	COMPENSATION/ NOMINATING AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Dr. Uri Geiger, Chairman
Samuel E. Navarro
David Gill	X*	X
Nachum Shamir		X*
LuAnn Via	X
Samuel Rubinstein	X	X

* Committee Chair

Below is a description of each committee of the Board of Directors. Each of the committees has authority to engage independent advisors, as it deems appropriate to carry out its responsibilities. The Board of Directors has determined that each member of each committee meets the applicable rules and regulations regarding “independence” and that each member is free of any relationship that would interfere with his or her individual exercise of independent judgment with regard to us.

Audit Committee

The current members of our Audit Committee are David Gill (Chair), Samuel Rubinstein, and LuAnn Via, each of whom we believe satisfies the independence requirements of NASDAQ and the SEC. Mr. Gill chairs this committee and has been designated as the “Audit Committee financial expert” under Item 407(d)(5) of

7

Regulation S-K. The Board of Directors determined in 2018 that each member of the Audit Committee satisfies the independence and other composition requirements of the SEC and NASDAQ. Our Board of Directors has determined that each member of the Audit Committee has the requisite accounting or related financial expertise required by applicable NASDAQ rules. Our Audit Committee assists our Board of Directors in its oversight of:

• appointing, evaluating and determining the compensation of our independent auditors;

• reviewing and approving the scope of the annual audit, the audit fee and the financial statements;

• reviewing disclosure controls and procedures, internal control over financial reporting, any internal audit function and corporate policies with respect to financial information;

• reviewing other risks that may have a significant impact on our financial statements;

• preparing the Audit Committee report for inclusion in the annual proxy statement;

• establishing procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints regarding accounting and auditing matters;

• approving all related person transactions, as defined by applicable SEC Rules, to which we are a party; and

• evaluating annually the Audit Committee charter.

The Audit Committee works closely with management as well as our independent auditors. The Audit Committee has the authority to obtain advice and assistance from, and receive appropriate funding from us for, outside legal, accounting or other advisors as the Audit Committee deems necessary to carry out its duties.

The charter of our Audit Committee is available in the Corporate Governance section of the Investor Relations section of our website at www.strataskinsciences.com.

Compensation/ Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

The current members of our Compensation/Nominating Corporate Governance Committee are Nachum Shamir (Chair), David Gill, and Samuel Rubinstein, each of whom we believe satisfies the independence requirements of NASDAQ. Mr. Shamir chairs this committee. The purpose of our Compensation/Nominating and Governance Committee is to assist in the responsibilities of the Board of Directors relating to compensation of our executive officers. In addition to its role in compensation matters, the purpose of our Compensation/Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is to review all Board of Director-recommended and stockholder-recommended nominees, determine each nominee’s qualifications and to make a recommendation to the full Board of Directors as to which persons should be the Board of Directors’ nominees. Specific responsibilities of the committee include:

• reviewing and approving objectives relevant to executive officer compensation;

• evaluating performance and recommending to the Board of Directors the compensation, including any incentive compensation, of the Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers in accordance with such objectives;

• reviewing employment agreements for executive officers;

• recommending to the Board of Directors the compensation for our directors;

• administering our equity compensation plans and other employee benefit plans;

• evaluating human resources and compensation strategies, as needed;

• identifying and recommending to the Board of Directors individuals qualified to become members of the Board of Directors;

• recommending to the Board of Directors the director nominees for the next annual meeting of stockholders;

• recommending to the Board of Directors director committee assignments;

• reviewing and evaluating succession planning for the Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers;

• monitoring the independence of the directors;

• developing and overseeing the corporate governance principles applicable to members of the Board of Directors, officers and employees;

8

• reviewing and approving director compensation and administering the Non-Employee Director Plan;

• monitoring the continuing education for our directors; and

• evaluating annually the Compensation/Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee charter.

The Compensation/Nominating and Governance Committee reviews executive compensation from time to time and reports to the Board of Directors, which makes all final decisions with respect to executive compensation. The Compensation/Nominating and Governance Committee adheres to several guidelines in carrying out its responsibilities, including performance by the employees, our performance, enhancement of stockholder value, growth of new businesses and new markets and competitive levels of fixed and variable compensation.

The Compensation/Nominating and Governance Committee considers potential candidates recommended by its members, management and others, including stockholders. In considering candidates recommended by stockholders, the committee will apply the same criteria it applies in connection with candidates recommended by the Compensation/Nominating and Governance Committee. Stockholders may propose candidates to the Compensation/Nominating and Governance Committee by delivering a notice to the Compensation/Nominating and Governance Committee that contains the information required by the Bylaws. The Compensation/Nominating and Governance Committee did not pay any fee to any third party to search for, identify and/or evaluate the 2019 nominees for directors.

The Compensation/Nominating and Governance Committee does not maintain a formal diversity policy with respect to the identification or selection of directors for nomination to the Board of Directors. Diversity is just one of many factors the Compensation/Nominating and Governance Committee considers in the identification and selection of director nominees. The Company defines diversity broadly to include differences in race, gender, ethnicity, age, viewpoint, professional experience, educational background, skills and other personal attributes that can foster board heterogeneity in order to encourage and maintain board effectiveness.

The charter of our Compensation/Nominating and Governance Committee is available in the Corporate Governance section of the Investor Relations section of our website at www.strataskinsciences.com.

The Board of Directors’ Role in Risk Oversight

Our Board of Directors administers its risk oversight function as a whole by making risk oversight a matter of collective consideration. While management is responsible for identifying risks, the Board of Directors has charged the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors with evaluating financial and accounting risk, the Compensation/Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board of Directors with evaluating risks associated with employees and compensation. Investor-related risks are usually addressed by the Board of Directors as a whole.

Stockholder Communications with the Board of Directors

The Board of Directors has established a process for stockholders to communicate with the Board of Directors or with individual directors. Stockholders who wish to communicate with the Board of Directors or with individual directors should direct written correspondence to Jay Sturm, General Counsel at jsturm@strataskin.com or to the following address (our principal executive offices): Board of Directors, c/o Corporate Secretary, 5 Walnut Grove Drive, Suite 140, Horsham, Pennsylvania 19044. Any such communication must contain:

• a representation that the stockholder is a holder of record of our capital stock;

• the name and address, as they appear on our books, of the stockholder sending such communication; and

• the class and number of shares of our capital stock that are beneficially owned by such stockholder.

Mr. Sturm, as the Corporate Secretary, will forward such communications to the Board of Directors or the specified individual director to whom the communication is directed unless such communication is unduly hostile, threatening, illegal or similarly inappropriate, in which case the Corporate Secretary has the authority to discard the communication or to take appropriate legal action regarding such communication.

Code of Conduct

We have adopted the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, the Domestic and Foreign Anti-Corruption Policy and the Whistleblowers’ Hotline Policy and Procedures for Reporting that applies to all officers, directors and

9

employees. These documents are available in the Corporate Governance section of the Investor Relations section of our website at: www.strataskinsciences.com. If we make any substantive amendments to code or grant any waiver from a provision of the code to any executive officer or director, we will promptly disclose the nature of the amendment or waiver on our website.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Audit Committee oversees the Company’s financial reporting process on behalf of the Board of Directors. Management has the primary responsibility for the financial statements and the reporting process, including the systems of internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures. In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, the Audit Committee reviewed the audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 with management, including a discussion of the quality, not just the acceptability, of the accounting principles, the reasonableness of significant judgments, and the clarity of disclosures in the financial statements.

The Audit Committee is responsible for reviewing, approving and managing the engagement of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, including the scope, extent and procedures of the annual audit and compensation to be paid therefore, and all other matters the Audit Committee deems appropriate, including the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm’s accountability to the Board of Directors and the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee reviewed with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firms, which are responsible for expressing an opinion on the conformity of audited financial statements with generally accepted accounting principles, their respective judgment as to the quality, not just the acceptability, of the Company’s accounting principles and such other matters as are required to be discussed with the Audit Committee by the Standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”), including PCAOB Auditing Standard No. 16, Communications With Audit Committees the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), other applicable regulations, and discussed and reviewed the results of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm’s examination of the financial statements. In addition, the Audit Committee discussed with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firms the independent registered public accounting firms’ independence from management and the Company, including the matters in the written disclosures, the letter regarding its independence by Rule 3526 of the PCAOB regarding the independent registered public accounting firms’ communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence. The Audit Committee also considered whether the provision of non-audit services was compatible with maintaining the independent registered public accounting firms’ independence.

The Audit Committee discussed with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firms the overall scope and plans for its audits, and received from them written disclosures and letter regarding their independence. The Audit Committee meets with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firms, with and without management present, to discuss the results of its examinations, its evaluations of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and the overall quality of the Company’s financial reporting. The Audit Committee held five meetings during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018.

In reliance on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors (and the Board of Directors has approved) that the audited financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 for filing with the SEC. The Audit Committee has also retained Marcum LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019.

AUDIT COMMITTEE:

Components of Executive Compensation during 2018

Additionally, each of Dr. Rafaeli and Mr. Hill achieved a bonus in 2018 pursuant to the bonus programs set forth in their respective employment agreements.

For Dr. Rafaeli, he has an annual bonus based upon the performance of the Company’s business during the relevant quarters in which he is employed of each fiscal year. Such bonus during 2018 is achieved, on a quarterly basis, but paid annually, if (a) the Company achieved positive adjusted EBITDA in each of the last three quarters during 2018 in which he was employed and (b) with such bonus amount determined as a percentage of the average aggregate collected revenue during such quarter from all installed laser machines (pro-rated for machines installed during a quarter) (“Average Revenue per Machine”) based upon the following schedule:

Average Revenue per Machine per quarter	Bonus (as a percentage of total company revenue for the relevant quarter)
Up to $8,100		0.50	%
$8,101 to $9,600		0.80	%
$9,601 to $11,000		1.20	%
Above $11,001		1.50	%

The Average Revenue per Machine and positive adjusted EBITDA quarters resulted in a payout of $142,853.

For Mr. Hill, he had a target bonus of $65,000 prorated for his employment with the Company in 2018, with 60% of such bonus being achieved, on achieving $7,000 Average Revenue per Machine for the fourth quarter of 2018. The balance of the bonus was paid based on personal goals as agreed with the Chairman of the Audit Committee and approved by the Compensation/Nominating and Governance Committee, which resulted in a total bonus payout of $40,627.

Dr. Rafaeli’s employment with the Company would have terminated if the Accelmed-led investment had terminated prior to closing for any reason. Dr. Rafaeli’s base salary is $400 thousand per year, and he is entitled to bonus compensation based upon the achievement of earnings targets. Dr. Rafaeli was awarded stock options under the Company’s 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan equal to 7.5% of the Company’s equity on a fully diluted basis as of immediately following the closing of the Accelmed-led investment.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

Sabby Management, LLC and Broadfin Capital LLC 2015 through 2017 Transactions

On June 22, 2015, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with the Purchasers, including certain funds managed by Sabby Management, LLC and Broadfin Capital LLC (existing Company shareholders), in connection with a private placement. The Purchasers were issued Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 0.6 million shares of common stock, having an exercise price of $3.75 per share. We also issued $32.5 million aggregate principal amount of Debentures that, subject to certain ownership limitations and stockholder approval conditions, were convertible into 8,666,668 shares of common stock at an initial conversion price of $3.75 per share. The Debentures were bearing interest at the rate of 2.25% per year, and, unless previously converted, were to mature on the five-year anniversary of the date of issuance. On September 30, 2015, the Company repriced outstanding Warrants held by certain investors to reduce the exercise price to $3.75 per share. These warrants expire in 2020.

In connection with this financing, we also granted to the Purchasers resale registration rights with respect to the shares of common stock underlying the Debentures and the Warrants pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement. In addition to the registration rights, the Selling Stockholders are entitled to receive liquidated damages upon the occurrence of a number of events relating to filing, becoming effective and maintaining an effective registration statement covering the shares underlying the Debentures and the Warrants. The liquidated damages will be payable upon the occurrence of each of those events and each monthly anniversary thereof until cured. The amount of liquidated damages payable is equal to 2.0% of the aggregate purchase price paid by each Purchaser, provided, however, the maximum aggregate liquidated damages payable to a Purchaser shall be 12% of the aggregate subscription amount paid by such Purchaser pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. The liquidated damages shall accrue interest at a rate of 12% per annum (or such lesser maximum amount that is permitted to be paid by applicable law), accruing on a daily basis for each event until such event is cured.

The Registration Rights Agreement requires us to file one or more registration statements for all of the securities that may be issued upon conversion of the Debentures and exercise of the Warrants issued to the Purchasers. Pursuant to the applicable transaction documents, however, certain Purchasers may not exercise their conversion/exercise rights for that number of shares of common stock which, together with all other shares owned by that Purchaser and its affiliates would result in more than 9.99% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock calculated on the basis of the then outstanding shares.

On September 20, 2017, the Company announced the closing of an exchange transaction pursuant to the Securities Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) dated as of June 7, 2017 between the Company and holders of its 2.25% Senior Series A Secured Convertible Debentures due June 30, 2021 and 4% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures due July 30, 2021 (collectively, the “Debentures”). In closing the exchange transaction under the Exchange Agreement, the holders of the Debentures exchanged the Debentures, having an aggregate principal amount of approximately $40.5 million, into 40,482 shares (the “Preferred Shares”) of the Company’s newly created Series C Convertible Preferred Stock. The Preferred Shares are convertible into a total of approximately 15,049,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Each Preferred Share has a stated value of $1,000 and is convertible into shares of common stock at a conversion price equal to $2.69. The Company included the Exchange Agreement as an exhibit to its Form 8-K current report, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 7, 2017. The Company relied upon the exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “1933 Act”) afforded by Section 3(a)(9) of the 1933 Act, i.e., the exchange of the Debentures for the Preferred Shares in which no commission or other remuneration was paid or given directly or indirectly for soliciting such exchange. In connection with the closing under the Exchange Agreement, on September 20, 2017, the Company filed a Certificate of Designations with the Delaware Secretary of State setting forth the rights, preferences and privileges of the Company’s Series C Convertible Preferred Stock.

During 2017 the Company had an agreement with a software development company where this software company provided services without charge. A former director of the Company was CEO of this software company. The Company no longer uses this service.

During 2018 and 2017 the Company had an agreement with the son of a former Board Member for direct to consumer advertising. The Company incurred $13,000 and $30,000 of expense, for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 respectively, and no longer uses the service.

2018 Accelmed Led Investment

On March 30, 2018, the Company entered into the Accelmed Purchase Agreement with Accelmed, pursuant to which Accelmed agreed to invest $13.0 million to purchase upon closing 12,037,037 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price per share of $1.08. The Company may incur additional expenses, or Accelmed may receive additional shares in the event of certain contingencies. The Company is required to reimburse Accelmed for its legal, consulting, due diligence and certain costs related to the proposed transaction, including the reasonable legal fees, disbursements and related charges of Accelmed’s counsel in an aggregate amount not to exceed $400,000 (or up to $500,000 in the event of certain contingencies, and subject to no cap in the event the Company’s stockholders do not approve the transaction) at the earliest of (i) the closing, or (ii) the termination of Accelmed Purchase Agreement for any reason other than by reason of a breach of the Accelmed Purchase Agreement by Accelmed.

Upon closing under the Accelmed Purchase Agreement, Accelmed controlled a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock.

The Accelmed Purchase Agreement also requires that the Company indemnify Accelmed for certain items as defined in the Accelmed Purchase Agreement, which may result in the issuance of additional shares of the Company’s common stock to the Investors in the event the Company incurs additional cash obligations above the thresholds contained in the Accelmed purchase Agreement, including excess amounts from sales taxes, broker fees, insurance coverage and legal fees (the “Retained Risk Provisions”). Pursuant to the Retained Risk provisions, Accelmed received an additional 75,590 shares. For a discussion of additional indemnification and legal expense reimbursement for Accelmed and Dr. Geiger, see “Director Compensation — Limitation on Directors’ Liabilities; Indemnification of Officers and Directors” above.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” ALL OF THE NOMINEES IN PROPOSAL NO. 1.

PROPOSAL NO. 2
   
RATIFICATION OF SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

On May 10, 2019, the Company dismissed BDO USA LLP (“BDO”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, and approved the engagement of Marcum LLP (“Marcum”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2018. The decision to change registered public accounting firms was approved by the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors, and ratified by the Board of Directors.

Prior to its dismissal, BDO did not prepare or issue any report on the Company’s financial statements. As a result, the Company cannot state whether any such report would contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, or would be qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

During the audit of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, BDO, and the Company had two disagreements (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K) regarding matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, but no disagreement on auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of BDO, would have caused BDO to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its reports on the consolidated financial statements for such fiscal year. BDO disagreed with the Company’s methodology for accounting of historical contingent and potential liabilities related to state sales and use taxes related to the Company’s XTRAC laser business, and disagreed with the Company’s accounting of non-cash derivative liabilities arising from debentures issued by the Company in June 2015, which converted into shares of the Company’s Series C Convertible Preferred Stock in September 2017. For those transactions or events similar to those which involved such disagreement, where such transactions or events were material, both (a) the Company’s methodology for accounting of historical contingent and potential liabilities related to state sales and use taxes related to the Company’s XTRAC laser business and (b) the Company’s accounting of non-cash derivative liabilities arising from debentures issued by the Company in June 2015, which converted into shares of the Company’s Series C Convertible Preferred Stock in September 2017, have been accounted for or disclosed in a manner consistent with that which the Company believes BDO would have concluded was required. Accordingly, the Company believes it is not required to make any further disclosure under Item 304(b) of Regulation S-K.

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors has selected Marcum LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019 and has further directed that the Board of Directors submit the selection of Marcum LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for ratification by the stockholders at the Annual Meeting.

Stockholder ratification of the selection of Marcum LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm is not required by our Bylaws or otherwise. However, the Board of Directors, on behalf of the Audit Committee, is submitting the selection of Marcum LLP to the stockholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate practice. If the stockholders fail to ratify the selection, the Audit Committee will reconsider whether or not to retain that firm. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee in its discretion may direct the appointment of different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if they determine that such a change would be in the best interests of us and our stockholders.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” PROPOSAL NO. 2.

Pre-Approval of Audit and Non-Audit Services

Consistent with the SEC’s rules, the Audit Committee charter requires that the Audit Committee review and pre-approve all audit services and permitted non-audit services provided by the independent auditors to us or any of our subsidiaries. The Audit Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to a member of the Audit Committee and if it does, the decisions of that member must be presented to the full Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.

The Audit Committee’s pre-approval policy provides as follows:

• First, once a year when the base audit engagement is reviewed and approved, management will identify all other services (including fee ranges) for which management knows it will engage Marcum LLP for the next 12 months. Those services typically include quarterly reviews, specified tax matters, certifications to the lenders as required by financing documents, consultation on new accounting and disclosure standards and, in future years, reporting on management’s internal controls assessment.

• Second, if any new “unlisted” proposed engagement arises during the year, the engagement will require approval of the Audit Committee.

All fees to our independent accounting firm were approved by the Audit Committee.

23

HOUSEHOLDING OF PROXY MATERIALS

The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (e.g., brokers) to satisfy the delivery requirements for proxy statements and annual reports with respect to two or more stockholders sharing the same address by delivering a single proxy statement addressed to those stockholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as “householding,” potentially means extra convenience for stockholders and cost savings for companies.

A single proxy statement may be delivered to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected stockholders. Once you have received notice from your broker that it will be “householding” communications to your address, “householding” will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you notify your broker or the Company that you no longer wish to participate in “householding.” If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in “householding” and would prefer to receive a separate proxy statement and annual report in the future you may notify your broker or direct your written request to: STRATA Skin Sciences, Inc., 5 Walnut Grove Drive, Suite 140, Horsham, Pennsylvania 19044, Attention: Secretary. Stockholders who currently receive multiple copies of the proxy statement at their address and would like to request “householding” of their communications should contact their broker. In addition, we will promptly deliver, upon written or oral request to the address or telephone number above, a separate copy of the annual report and proxy statement to a stockholder at a shared address to which a single copy of the documents was delivered.

24

OTHER MATTERS

The Board of Directors knows of no other matters that will be presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting. If any other matters are properly brought before the meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the accompanying proxy to vote on such matters in accordance with their best judgment.
