EXPLANATORY NOTE

On March 24, 2021, Krystal Biotech, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K reporting that it had issued a press release announcing the launch of Jeune, Inc. (which has subsequently been renamed Jeune Aesthetics, Inc) (“Jeune”), a gene-based aesthetics company, and the initial safety data from the ongoing Phase 1 trial of KB301 for aesthetic indications. Jeune continues to manage the development of a portfolio of aesthetic indication candidates based on the Company’s proprietary technology platform. The formal license between the Company and Jeune referred to in the press release has not been finalized as Jeune remains a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The Company furnished the press release on a Current Report on Form 8-K dated March 24, 2021 under Item 7.01. The Company is filing this amendment to such Current Report solely to correct the disclosure within the press release attached to such Current Report and incorporated therein.
