Nolla Health launches first U.S. AI-powered acne prescription pilot in Utah

Nolla Health, a New York City-based company, has launched a pilot program in Utah that allows its AI system to issue initial prescriptions for acne treatment. This is the first such program in the U.S. authorized by a state regulator. The program uses a mobile app where patients complete a questionnaire and face scan, and the AI generates a treatment plan within 10-15 minutes. The pilot is structured in three stages with decreasing physician oversight, and progression requires meeting safety targets. The initiative aims to reduce wait times and costs for dermatology care.
