Hi, I am 20 year old guy working on AI based skincare startup, I need to onboard dermatologist as it is one of our core feature. How to approach dermatologist, anyone here who know any young dermatologist who wants to be part of startup.
“my_qualifications” - Hey everyone, I'm a second-year student at Tier 1 college ( BS in Quant Economics & Finance program) with a 8.5+ CGPA, and I'm planning to pursue an MSc Finance abroad with the goal of breaking into investment banking. My total budget after scholarships is around ₹20L including living expenses. I've been looking at Bocconi (MSc Finance), EDHEC (MSc Financial Engineering), Mannheim (MSc Finance), and RSM Erasmus as my shortlist - roughly reach, target, and safety. My main dilemmas: (1) Is Bocconi genuinely worth it for a non-Italian wanting London IB, or is the alumni network too Italy-centric? (2) Anyone who went the Mannheim route how real is Frankfurt placement for non-EU students? Would love to hear from anyone who's been through this or is in a similar situation!
Hey everyone, I’m a student working on a startup idea in the skincare space and wanted some honest validation from this community.
The idea is to build a platform that combines AI-based skin analysis with personalized skincare routines and product recommendations. A user would upload a photo, the system would detect concerns like acne, pigmentation, dryness, etc., and then generate a structured AM/PM routine along with product suggestions.
What I’m trying to do differently from existing tele-dermatology apps is:
- Focus on consistency and outcomes (tracking daily routine, progress over time)
- Provide a more structured routine rather than just one-time consultation
- Add behavioral elements like streaks, challenges, or incentives to improve adherence
- Potentially combine B2C (direct users) with B2B (clinics, skincare brands, or pharmacies)
I’m still figuring out a few things:
Would you trust AI-based skincare recommendations without a dermatologist?
What would make you actually stick to a skincare routine app?
Does this feel like a real problem worth solving or just a “nice to have”?
Any thoughts on monetization (subscription vs partnerships vs something else)?
Would really appreciate blunt feedback what works, what doesn’t, and what you’d change.
Thanks in advance!
