This startup is issuing AI-generated acne prescriptions

Utah startup Nolla Health is piloting an AI system that scans users' faces to analyze acne severity and autonomously generate prescriptions. The pilot begins with strict physician oversight—two doctors approve each prescription for the first 100 patients—before gradually loosening to sampling-based review as patient volume grows.

Background

AI-driven healthcare applications are rapidly expanding into prescription services, with several startups entering telemedicine and dermatology. Utah has been a notable state for testing progressive healthcare technology regulations.
