Who we are for
Born in Africa.
Built for every skin.
MyDermaLife exists for access to specialist dermatology, for skin that is under-represented, and for continuity — not for a generic beauty promise.
Why MyDermaLife
- Access
Named dermatological expertise, not generic advice.
- Representation
Diverse skin remains under-served across care pathways.
- Continuity
Follow-up over time, not a single appointment.
Values
- Medical before cosmetic
Not a generic beauty promise.
- Human before AI
AI prepares; the clinician decides.
- Evidence before any claim
Nothing is invented to fill a page.
- Inclusive expertise
Melanin-rich skin at the centre, not as an option.
What we are building
- The public entrance
Understand, get oriented, and find a published professional.
- Patient continuity
History, consultation, plan and follow-up stay connected in the patient app.
- The professional desk
Diary, pre-consultation, clinical decision, notes and follow-up for dermatologists.
- Accountable infrastructure
Consent, data, media and evidence under named responsibilities.
Team & governance
- Leadership
Valérie Ayéna carries the origin, the product vision and the founder’s responsibility.
- Clinical authority
Diagnosis, prescription and signature belong to the dermatologist treating the patient.
- Clinical board
No committee or adviser is shown before that relationship is confirmed and published.
- Operational responsibility
Support, privacy and partnerships each have their own public channel.
Côte d’Ivoire, then the world
The pilot is being built from Côte d’Ivoire. The ambition is international — without pretending to launch everywhere at once.
Relationships & ecosystem
No investor, clinical partner, brand or backer appears without a confirmed relationship and an exact description. Silence is better than an ambiguous logo.
The origin leads to the care
Valérie Ayéna — founder. The full story stays on Our founder. The patient journey, meanwhile, is open.
