- Abstract
A study published in Clinical & Experimental Dermatology found that facial analysis technologies using artificial intelligence (AI) did not increase sunscreen use among patients. The study involved showing patients their facial characteristics using an AI application and then surveying them about their sunscreen usage. The results showed that self-reported sunscreen use actually decreased after the study. The study suggests that education on the short- and long-term effects of sun exposure, combined with AI facial analysis, may be a more effective approach to promoting regular sunscreen use. However, the study had limitations, including a small sample size and reliance on self-reported data.
