What gets measured
- Visible spot-candidate localization with aggregate confidence bands
- High-detail spot mapping for smaller visible breakouts
- Face-aware masking to reduce non-skin detections
- Overall detection count with high, medium and low confidence totals
- Heatmap overlay you can compare across scans over time
How the AI detects acne
The detection pipeline uses high-detail computer vision designed to preserve smaller visible spot candidates during image preparation.
Face-aware masks reduce likely false positives from hair, eyebrows, lips, jewellery and nostrils, though no image detector removes every false positive.
Each candidate is scored internally. The result summarizes an overall count, high/medium/low confidence totals and visual overlays — not medical severity or a diagnosis.
FAQ
Is this a real acne detection model or a beauty filter?
It uses computer vision rather than a cosmetic filter. The system maps visible spot candidates with face-aware masks, then returns overlays and aggregate confidence totals. Candidates can include false positives, so the output is not a diagnosis.
How can skin tone affect the result?
Some signals, including redness and dark circles, use your own face as a local baseline rather than one population average. Even so, skin tone, lighting, camera processing, and makeup can affect color-based results, so compare consistent photos and treat the scan as screening rather than diagnosis.
Is this medical advice?
No. It is a screening tool, not a diagnosis. If you have moderate or severe acne, consult a dermatologist.
What kind of photo gives the best result?
A clear, well-lit, front-facing photo with no sunglasses. Natural daylight is ideal. JPEG or PNG up to 30 MB.
