Teledermatology has a long history globally, with several international congresses held annually, including the most recent ones in Houston and London.
Our team of qualified dermatologists are licensed and have 20-30 years of experience in dermatology, specializing in skin disorders such as moles, viral growths, skin allergies, and eczema. Our dermatologists have extensive experience in both private practices and hospital care, including research and teaching future generations of dermatologists. They provide assistance to patients of all ages, from newborns to the elderly, for a range of skin conditions from simple skin disorders to severe skin diseases.

The chosen doctor will assess your images and provide therapeutic suggestions and treatment options based on the results. If needed, they can write a prescription and generate the examination report. The prescription will be sent electronically to the cloud, allowing you to pick it up at any pharmacy in the country after verifying your identity. You will receive the encrypted report, invoice, and instructions from the dermatologist via email. To open the report, you'll need to enter a code assigned to you in the app, which can be found in the settings menu (accessible by clicking on the gear icon).

You can take the photos anywhere, even from the comfort and privacy of your own home. It is preferable to take all the photos in natural daylight. If there is insufficient natural light, you can go to a well-lit area in your home. This can include the bathroom if the lighting there is strong. The more light you have during photography, the sharper the image will be. Initially, it is recommended to take at least 1-2 photos from a distance (approximately 1 meter) to show the location of the condition on your body. For the rest of the photos, take close-up shots from four different angles. During each photography session, keep your phone steady in one place to allow the autofocus to work properly. If you are unable to see the screen while taking the photo, it is better to use a mirror. For example, in the application, you can take a photo of your own face by standing in front of a mirror and capturing the reflection.
