Appointment of New Director

On October 30, 2025, at the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Board") of The Beauty Health Company (the "Company"), the Board appointed Dr. Philippe Schaison to the Board, effective as of October 30, 2025.

Dr. Schaison currently serves as the Chief Executive Officer and as a director of Soltégo, Inc., a bio-cosmetics company, since 2018. Prior to his role at Soltégo, he was Chief Executive Officer NA of Syneron Candela, a medical aesthetic and cosmetic laser company, from 2017 to 2018, and President of Allergan Aesthetic, from 2013 to 2017. Dr. Schaison has served as Chairman of the Board of Raziel Therapeutics Ltd., an Israeli-based biotechnology company, since 2020, and currently sits on a number of other biomedical company boards including AIVITA Biomedical, Inc. since 2019; Dyve Biosciences, Inc. since 2020; and miraDry, Inc. since 2022. Dr. Schaison earned an M.B.A. from Hautes Etudes Commerciales in Paris, and a Doctorate in Pharmacy from the Université Paris V René Descartes.

The Board believes that Dr. Schaison is well-qualified to serve as a director of the Company due to his significant operating experience scaling global health and beauty franchises, as well as his extensive director and executive experience across a range of different organizations and industries.

The Board also appointed Dr. Schaison to serve as a member on both of the Company's Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Compensation Committee, effective as of October 30, 2025.

Dr. Schaison's compensation will be consistent with the Company's previously disclosed standard compensatory arrangements for non-employee directors, which are described in the Company's Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed with the SEC on April 25, 2025, under the heading "2024 Director Compensation." Dr. Schaison's compensation will be prorated to reflect the commencement date of his Board service.

In addition, Dr. Schaison will enter into the Company's standard form of indemnification agreement, a form of which was filed as Exhibit 10.13 to the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 10, 2021.

There are no arrangements or understandings between Dr. Schaison and any other person pursuant to which he was named a director of the Company. Dr. Schaison has no family relationship with the Company's directors or executive officers or any persons nominated or chosen by the Company to be a director or executive officer. Dr. Schaison has not entered into any other material plan, contract, arrangement or amendment in connection with his appointment to the Board.
