Dermatology

Skin concerns don't get Googled. They get described to AI.

A suspicious mole, acne that won't quit, premature lines, hair loss. AI hears the moment and names a derm. Aethon makes sure that's yours.

FAQ

Dermatology & Aesthetics questions, answered

Do patients really find dermatologists through AI?

Yes. Dermatology is heavily AI-influenced because so many concerns (cosmetic, chronic, screening) are described before they're searched. Adult acne, screening, and cosmetic procedures are top moments.

What about cosmetic vs. medical practice, does that change the approach?

Yes. Cosmetic moments lean on RealSelf, Instagram, and before/after content; medical moments lean on AAD authority and Reddit peer narratives. Aethon supports both with separate source-authority maps.

Multi-location derm group, can we track each office?

Yes. Business plan covers 25 locations, Enterprise unlimited.

Compliance review for cosmetic claims?

Yes. The Action Engine on Business and above flags cosmetic claims, before/after representations, and result expectations for review before publishing.

What about adjacent services (med spas, laser centers)?

Med spas, laser centers, and IV therapy are increasingly AI-recommended in cosmetic moments. The moment libraries can include or exclude based on your scope of practice.

How do we attribute AI mentions to booked consultations?

Aethon's attribution layer wires to your scheduling tool, EHR (where supported), and CRM to track AI-driven consultations and downstream procedure revenue.
