Cover Story: The integration of Tele-Dermatology with mHealth has progressed rapidly during the COVID-19 pandemic. This integration, often also embedding AI, has facilitated the monitoring of dermatological issues and enabled remote specialist consultations, reducing the need for in-person visits. The opportunities are numerous and significant. They include enhancing service quality, streamlining healthcare processes, reducing costs, and delivering more accessible care. Looking ahead, future developments in this field anticipate further integration with AI and Augmented Reality, as well as the utilization of wearable sensors. However, this integration also gives rise to certain challenges and problems related to regulations, ethics, cybersecurity, data privacy, and device management. Scholars and policymakers must prioritize addressing these issues. View this paper
