How does skincare AI work?

Without boring you with the details, AI uses a complex visual system to identify lesions and spots on the skin. Using complex architecture this image is then cross-referenced and matched with previously diagnosed skin diseases to ascertain an accurate result on what that spot, mole or rash on your skin might be.

What does this mean for the Pharmaceutical Industry?

Technology is now an everyday part of our lives and clients, customers and patients are all the more familiar with its advantages when trying to achieve just about anything in our day to day lives. As we become more accepting of technology we also become more receptive to new concepts and opportunities that hold technology as the central focus. Due to this shift in mind-set, Artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming an increasingly important topic in health care.

By using AI to test for skin diseases we’re able to understand so much more about the human skin, such as which skin diseases are most common and where in the world they appear with more accurate levels than ever before. Not only does this help companies such as Almirall when developing treatments for specific regions, it also helps us understand our world, where to best supply specific medicines and even the world’s climate – our skin is a sensitive organ that can tell us much about the air quality, lifestyle and environment that we exist in.
