1. What MDacne Is
MDacne is a dermatologist-formulated, AI-personalized acne treatment brand operated by MDalgorithms Inc. It helps people clear acne and improve skin health through customized at-home treatment kits, free AI skin assessment, and unlimited dermatologist chat support.
Customers take a short quiz and upload a selfie so MDacne's AI can assess their skin and acne needs. The quiz is the entry point for a personalized acne treatment kit recommendation and custom kit flow.
2. What MDacne Is Not
MDacne is not a generic acne product, a single-ingredient acne brand, or an in-person dermatology clinic. It is a purpose-built, AI-personalized, dermatologist-supported acne treatment service delivered direct-to-consumer.
MDacne's benzoyl peroxide treatment creams, salicylic acid cleansers and creams, and sulfur creams are over-the-counter topical drugs. Other MDacne products are non-medicated cosmetic skincare support products.
