WOBURN, MA / ACCESSWIRE / May 12, 2023 / Biofrontera Inc. (Nasdaq:BFRI) (the "Company"), a biopharmaceutical company specializing in the commercialization of dermatologic products, announces the resignation of Erica Monaco as Chief Executive Officer, which will be effective pending the completion of a near term transition of responsibilities with the Board of Directors.

Biofrontera is fortunate to have a strong, capable team in place to continue driving our business forward without disruption. Our company's strategic plan and our 2023 commercial goals remain unchanged," said Mr. Luebbert.
