#### Waldencast Announces FDA Approval of Obagi<sup>®</sup> saypha<sup>®</sup> MagIQ™ Injectable Hyaluronic Acid Gel Under the Obagi Medical Brand

*U.S. Launch Planned in 2026 and Positions Obagi Medical as a Leading Dermatological Megabrand at the Convergence of Integrated Skincare and Aesthetics While Doubling its Addressable Market*

<br>LONDON, September 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - Waldencast plc (NASDAQ: WALD), a global multi-brand beauty and wellness platform, today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") has approved Obagi<sup>®</sup> saypha<sup>®</sup> MagIQ™ injectable hyaluronic acid ("HA") gel, the first product in the Obagi<sup>®</sup> saypha<sup>®</sup> collection under the Obagi Medical brand. This approval marks Waldencast's entry into the U.S. HA dermal filler market through Obagi Medical and reinforces the Company's ambition to become a multi-product innovator in aesthetics, doubling Obagi Medical's total addressable market to approximately $4.2 billion by 2029.<sup>1</sup>

"This milestone represents an exciting advancement in our long-term strategy to become the world's leading dermatological megabrand at the crossroads of skincare and medical aesthetics with the addition of a comprehensive integrated aesthetic solution that builds upon Obagi Medical's efficacious skincare products and strengthens our leadership in medical-grade beauty and aesthetics," said Michel Brousset, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Waldencast. "Obagi<sup>®</sup> saypha<sup>®</sup> MagIQ™ sets a new standard in HA dermal fillers in the U.S., offering our professionals and patients proven innovation with a well-established safety profile. The launch of this product is a catalyst for our growth as we focus on delivering synergistic skincare and injectable offerings under the trusted Obagi Medical brand."

Waldencast plans to launch Obagi<sup>®</sup> saypha<sup>®</sup> MagIQ™ in the U.S. market alongside other important skin care innovations in 2026. This launch will leverage Obagi Medical's established network of practices and aesthetic professionals, creating synergies with the brand's fast-growing skincare business and driving enhanced value for both providers and patients. Obagi Medical expects additional account expansion driven by the new Obagi Medical injectable offering.

Obagi<sup>®</sup> saypha<sup>®</sup> MagIQ™, developed by Croma-Pharma GmbH, utilizes proprietary MACRO Core Technology that creates a stable 3D HA matrix designed to provide natural-looking results with category leading capabilities including high HA content upon injection, consistent gel distribution, and a predictable injection force and swelling profile. The commercial launch of this first injectable HA gel will be followed by additional products in the saypha<sup>®</sup> line, including Obagi<sup>®</sup> saypha<sup>®</sup> ChIQ™ pending FDA approval.

"We are proud to partner with Waldencast in bringing Obagi<sup>®</sup> saypha<sup>®</sup> MagIQ™ to the U.S. market under the Obagi Medical brand. With over 40 years of expertise in HA-based treatments and more than 110 million syringes produced, Croma-Pharma has a strong legacy of developing innovative aesthetic products that meet the evolving needs of practitioners and their patients. With one of the largest clinical trial programs for an injectable HA technology, Obagi<sup>®</sup> saypha<sup>®</sup> products aim to set the standard for safety, quality, efficacy, and patient satisfaction," said Andreas Prinz, Chief Executive Officer of Croma-Pharma.

Dr. Suzan Obagi, Chief Medical Director of Obagi Medical, added, "The FDA approval of Obagi<sup>®</sup> saypha<sup>®</sup> MagIQ™ reflects our commitment to bringing high-quality, science-backed aesthetic products to market. This addition to our portfolio reinforces Obagi Medical's dedication to the highest standards of patient safety and efficacy. With the introduction of its MACRO Core Technology, Obagi<sup>®</sup> saypha<sup>®</sup> MagIQ™ offers a differentiated approach to the dermal filler category, providing healthcare practitioners with new options to address the unique needs of their patients with precision and confidence across all skin types and tones."

The U.S. Nasolabial Fold ("NLF") pivotal study for Obagi<sup>®</sup> saypha<sup>®</sup> MagIQ™ included 270 patients in a randomized, subject and evaluating investigator-blinded, active treatment controlled, non-inferiority, multicenter, paired (split-face) trial. Patients were followed for 48 weeks from initial treatment, with the 24-week primary endpoint measuring the change in NLF severity from baseline using a validated 5-point nasolabial scale. The study met primary and key secondary endpoints of non-inferiority to the control, with similar safety profiles, and included the highest representation of Fitzpatrick Skin Types I, V, and VI.

Dr. Jeremy Green, investigator for the U.S. NLF pivotal study and an internationally recognized expert in cosmetic dermatology, commented, "Obagi<sup>®</sup> saypha<sup>®</sup> MagIQ™ demonstrated impressive safety, efficacy, and versatility in the trial, with smooth and consistent injection properties. This product allows practitioners to achieve precise, natural-looking results while delivering high patient satisfaction with its effectiveness and longevity. I look forward to utilizing it in my practice in the near future."
