Nolla Health Review

Nolla Health runs Nolla Derm, a skin-care app with prescriptions. You answer questions about your skin and take a face scan in the app; Nolla's software assesses the images and proposes a treatment plan, and the site says a licensed US medical provider reviews every diagnosis and prescription. Treatment is a custom topical formula, sent to your pharmacy or shipped to you, and the plan is adjusted as your progress scans change. Nolla lists acne, redness, rosacea, hyperpigmentation and dark spots, melasma, fine lines and wrinkles, and under-eye bags. It says it operates in all US states except Arkansas, Delaware, Kansas, Minnesota, Mississippi, New Mexico and West Virginia. A separate Health Assistant chat (beta) covers other symptoms, and a women's health product is marked coming soon.

In Utah, Nolla runs a 12-month pilot under an agreement with the state's Office of Artificial Intelligence Policy in which the AI itself issues initial and renewal prescriptions for adults 18+ with mild-to-moderate acne, from a restricted list of topicals (tretinoin, adapalene, clindamycin with benzoyl peroxide, benzoyl peroxide, azelaic acid). Nolla says the first 100 patients' prescriptions are approved by two physicians before issue; up to 500 patients, the AI issues directly and a physician reviews every case afterward at least weekly; after that, physicians review a sample of at least 10% monthly plus every escalation or side effect. Pregnancy, breastfeeding, certain conditions and severe acne are routed to a physician or in-person care. Its terms say Nolla Health is a technology company, not a medical practice, and that care comes from independent physician-owned practices.

Nolla's site has no dedicated pricing page; prices come from its Derm and Utah pilot pages. The Utah FAQ says medication costs are separate from the subscription. The Derm FAQ does not say whether medication is included in the "from $9.99" plan. The iOS App Store listing shows a wider range of in-app purchases, including monthly treatment plans at $19.99 and $29.99, weekly plans from $3.99 to $9.99 and yearly plans from $59.99 to $79.99, without saying what separates them, so check the price in the app before you pay.

Prices checked on the vendor's pricing page on November 3, 2026 (Nolla has no separate pricing page; figures are from its Derm and Utah pilot pages). See Nolla Derm and Utah AI prescriptions.

What Nolla lists on its Derm page, FAQ, Utah pilot page and terms:

Nolla suits US adults with common, non-urgent skin concerns such as mild-to-moderate acne who want a prescription topical without waiting for a dermatology appointment, and who are comfortable with app-based care and photo check-ins. Nolla says most people see improvement within six to eight weeks.

It is not for urgent or serious problems. Nolla's terms say the service is not for emergencies (call 911), and its FAQ says the scan can miss things and that in-person care is needed for some conditions. A changing mole or any spot you are worried about needs an in-person dermatologist. If you want a long-established online prescription skin service, Curology and Musely offer clinician-prescribed custom formulas; for skin-spot risk checks rather than treatment, SkinVision is a different kind of tool.

On the App Store, Nolla Derm is rated 4.9 out of 5 from about 14,000 ratings at the time of checking; visible reviews praise fast access to a treatment plan and the check-in reminders, with a few noting that the medication stings at first. Coverage of the Utah pilot in Medical Economics and KSL reports the state's oversight plan and Nolla's own claim that clinicians agreed with its recommendations in over 96% of cases; that figure is the company's and no independent outcome data was found. Neither article carries criticism from outside physicians.
