The Cambridge-based haircare company that Jennifer Aniston co-owns Living Proof – is getting into skincare.

The company has entered into an agreement with Valeant Pharmaceuticals International, Inc. to develop, distribute and commercialize products for aesthetic dermatology. The products will be sold exclusively through Valeant’s direct-to-physician channel.

The initial products will be based on Living Proof’s proprietary, cross-linking polymer film technology, Strateris, which was developed by researchers and scientists. It is a breathable, flexible and imperceptible film that can be worn all day to immediately reshape the appearance of the skin – within one hour.

The first products are being developed to target under-eye bags and wrinkles. This revolutionary technology has been in development for almost 10 years and has been tested on over 600 women.

Valeant and Living Proof plan to launch the first product to leverage the Strateris platform technology at the March 2014 American Academy of Dermatology conference.

“By combining Living Proof’s innovative R&D capabilities and entrepreneurial agility with Valeant’s enormous expertise and global scale in aesthetic dermatology, together we have created a powerful commercial opportunity,” explains Jill Beraud, CEO of Living Proof.
