Artificial Intelligence in Dermatological Care

Artificial intelligence (AI) is a term that refers to the development of computer systems to perform tasks normally attributed to human intelligence. To do this, technologies such as neural networks are used to imitate the functioning of the human brain. In narrow applications such as playing chess or Go, AI now outperforms humans. Recently, dramatic advances in machine learning, which is a subset of AI, have made it possible to apply AI to certain aspects of everyday dermatology.

What are Dermocosmetics?

Consumers are becoming more conscious of the damage that external agents such as pollution, antibacterial soaps and detergents can do to the long-term health of their skin. Apart from considerations like reducing wrinkles, fine lines and moisturisation, consumers are becoming more interested in skin care products that go beyond traditional skin care and into prevention as well. What consumers want are products that help to halt and prevent more damage in the future.

Sensitive Skin and Long-term Protection

Sensitive skin is a growing problem, often exacerbated by products which contain harsh chemicals and irritants which can trigger outbreaks of dry and sensitive skin to occur. The application of hypoallergenic cream targeted at sensitive skin added to your regular skin routine will enable you to manage and prevent sensitive skin outbreaks and flare ups from occurring.

Anti-aging and dermatological care

Skin aging is a complex biological process influenced by combination of endogenous or intrinsic (genetics, cellular metabolism, hormonal, metabolic processes etc.) and exogenous or extrinsic (UV exposure, pollution, ionizing radiation, chemicals, toxins, bacteria, excessive drying etc.) factors. An extensive research review published in the journal of dermato-endocrinology in 2012 (www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3583892/) provide a detailed insight into effective skin anti-aging in strategies. This research paper found the impact of extrinsic aging can be prevented through the use of specialist cosmetic products, which focus on the prevention, regeneration, and delaying of skin aging by supporting and working with the body’s own biological functions.
