Review standards
Dermela separates product marketing from medical education. Pages that discuss melanoma warning signs, mole changes, or skin self-exams should cite reputable dermatology or cancer authority sources, carry review dates, and avoid language that sounds like a diagnosis.
When a named reviewer is added, this page should show who reviewed the content, what credentials they hold, what topics they reviewed, and when the review happened. Review scope matters because a dermatologist's review of an educational article is different from clinical validation of an app feature.
Current status
The website is currently conservative by design: it does not invent reviewer names, clinical credentials, app accuracy claims, or regulatory claims. Until credentials are verified, medical education pages should continue to explain that Dermela is not medical advice and is not a replacement for clinician care.
