Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

On April 23, 2025, Strata Skin Sciences, Inc. (the “Company”) was notified by Marcum LLP (“Marcum”) that Marcum resigned as the
independent registered accounting firm of the Company. On November 1, 2024, CBIZ CPAs P.C. acquired the attest business of Marcum. On April 23, 2025, upon Marcum’s resignation as auditors of the Company and with the approval of the Company’s Audit
Committee, CBIZ CPAs P.C. was engaged as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2025. .
The reports of Marcum regarding the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and
2023 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, and through April 23, 2025, the date of Marcum’s resignation,
there were (a) no disagreements (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) with Marcum on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which
disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Marcum, would have caused Marcum to make reference to such disagreement in its report and (b) no “reportable events” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K and the related
instructions), except for the material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting related to a lack of detailed management review of account reconciliations and account analyses, as reported in the Company’s Annual Reports on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, and through April 23, 2025, the date of Marcum’s
resignation, neither the Company nor anyone on the Company’s behalf consulted with CBIZ CPAs P.C. regarding (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific completed or contemplated transaction or regarding the type of audit opinions that
might be rendered by CBIZ CPAs P.C. on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, and CBIZ CPAs P.C. did not provide any written or oral advice that was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any such
accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions), as that term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of
Regulation S-K, or a reportable event, as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
The Company provided Marcum with a copy of this Current Report on Form 8-K prior to its filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “SEC”) and requested that Marcum furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the SEC, pursuant to Item 304(a)(3) of Regulation S-K, stating whether it agrees with the above statements and, if it does not agree, the respects in
which it does not agree. A copy of the letter, dated April 25, 2025, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 (which is incorporated by reference herein) to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
