Mela by Melanix Health Inc.

Skin is a living system. Your protocol should be too.

Mela treats skin as adaptive biology, not a static skin type. We model barrier resilience, pigmentation risk, inflammation load, and behavior patterns to generate routines that are explainable, safe, and continuously adaptive.

Our philosophy: protect skin first, then accelerate.

Every decision in Mela follows one rule: never chase speed at the cost of skin integrity. Capture context, apply safety constraints, orchestrate timing, then evolve using real outcomes.

Capture

Mela fuses visible markers with profile context to build a weighted signal graph of barrier strain, inflammation pressure, pigmentation behavior, and tolerance history.

Protocol Simulator

Real engine logic in motion: UV load, sensitivity, and adherence control intensity. As risk rises, Mela slows down and protects the barrier before re-escalating.

Engine Recommendation

Keep one major active, alternate nights, and prioritize hydration buffers to protect tolerance.

Irritation Risk

Suggested Retinoid Frequency

8-Week Trajectory (simulated)
Expected transition into stable tolerance by week 3 if UV protection and alternating nights remain consistent.
Built for men who shave

Razor bump prevention, timed to your shave days.

Mela's shave-aware engine adjusts actives around your shave cadence to reduce pseudofolliculitis barbae risk, ingrowns, and irritation rebound without slowing long-term results.

Shave Day Protocol Preview
Shave DaySingle pass, with-the-grain. Pause retinoid. 30-minute recovery buffer.
+24 HoursReintroduce low-irritation actives. Prioritize anti-inflammatory hydration.
+48 HoursReturn to normal cadence if barrier remains stable and redness is controlled.

Built for real skin behavior, not cosmetic averages.

Clinical guardrails from your app strategy: Fitzpatrick-aware risk, medication constraints, cycle-aware timing, and weekly protocol evolution tied to outcomes.

Fitzpatrick-Aware Safety

Pigmentation risk is weighted by phototype so actives are introduced without triggering preventable PIH cascades.

PIH Controls

Medication Guardrails

Systemic/topical medication states block unsafe combinations before a user ever applies conflicting actives.

Contraindication Engine

Living Protocol

Barrier checks, adherence, satisfaction, and reaction reports continuously rebalance frequency and treatment depth.

Adaptive Loop

Start with clarity. Scale with confidence.

Mela is the flagship skin-intelligence product by Melanix Health Inc.

Our philosophy is simple: protect barrier health first, then accelerate with explainable, adaptive protocols that evolve with real skin outcomes.
