# Blackstone explores sale of ZO Skin Health, sources say

By Abigail Summerville

NEW YORK, Sept 8 (Reuters) - Investment firm Blackstone (BX.N) is looking to sell medical-grade skincare company ZO Skin Health, which could be valued at around $2 billion in any deal, according to people familiar with the matter.

The firm is working with investment bankers at Citigroup (C.N) and Raymond James (RJF.N) on the sale, which is at an early stage, the people said, requesting anonymity because the matter is private.

Blackstone and Citi declined to comment. ZO and Raymond James did not immediately respond to comment requests.

Dermatologist Dr. Zein Obagi founded the brand in 2007. ZO sells skincare products including cleansers, serums, exfoliators, and toners that are distributed by physicians and skincare professionals.

The sale process comes at a time when many strategic buyers are prioritizing clinically backed, physician-distributed skincare brands like ZO, because of their efficacy and steadier demand versus over-the-counter products.
