First IND application

Celebrating submission of first IND application.

Kythera Biopharmaceuticals, Inc., formerly known as AESTHERx, Inc., was founded in August 2005 and is a privately held biopharmaceutical company located north of Los Angeles in southern California.

Kythera is focused on science and innovation in aesthetic medicine. This market is expanding rapidly driven by an aging population, increasing discretionary income, and an evolution of patient preference toward restorative and preventative care. The company uses the tools of biotechnology to develop prescription therapeutics for this emerging market.

Kythera (keye-thear-uh) is named after an island off the coast of southern Greece in the Mediterranean Sea. Southernmost of the Ionian Islands, Kythera was the chief center for the worship of Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of beauty and love.

The environment at Kythera is intense, informal and gregarious. At Kythera, idealism and curiosity are combined with strong business and science experience and a drive to succeed.
