Item 8.01.    Other Events.
 
Strata Skin Sciences, Inc. (the "Company" has previously reported that on April 27, 2016, it had received written notification (the "Notice") from The NASDAQ Stock Market ("NASDAQ") that the closing bid price of its common stock had been below the minimum $1.00 per share for the previous 30 consecutive business days, and that the Company was therefore not in compliance with the requirements for continued listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market under NASDAQ Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). The Notice provided the Company with an initial period of 180 calendar days, or until October 24, 2016, to regain compliance with the listing rules, which deadline was extended to April 24, 2017.  The Company previously reported these events under Item 3.01 of Form 8-K.

In order to effect compliance, the Company implemented a 1-for-5 reverse stock split of the Company's common stock, and the Company's common stock commenced trading on a post-reverse split basis on April 7, 2017.

As a result of the reverse split, the Company's share price increased, reflecting the decreased number of shares of the Company's common stock outstanding.

On April 24, 2017, NASDAQ notified the Company that the Company had regained compliance with Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) and that NASDAQ had determined that the issue of non-compliance for failure to meet the minimum $1.00 bid price was now closed.
