@karlnislow Thanks for asking. Curology is an awesome choice if you have mild acne. It’s like Proactiv, except it actually works for some people 😂
Apostrophe is much more of a replacement for the exceptional care one would get from seeing a dermatologist in-person. The problem is that it’s SUPER hard to see one in normal times, let alone during COVID.
First off, your treatment plan is created by an actual board-certified dermatologist, as opposed to any other kind of provider (or even an algorithm on some other parts of the interwebz :eyes:)
Second is that an Apostrophe treatment plan is comprehensive af. You can be prescribed 1-4 different medications. These medications can either be topical medications (like creams and lotions) or oral medications (pills or tablets). Our topicals are custom-made for you and we offer 9 different prescription ingredients at varying potencies - so you’ll get exactly the right medication for your skin concerns. The oral medications can be hugely helpful for hormonal and/or severe acne.
Hope that helps!

Thanks for the reply! Curology uses board-certified dermatologist as well and also creates custom prescription plans using prescription-grade ingredients. In terms of differences between your product and theirs from what I call tell, it looks like your formulations include a larger selection of actives as well as oral acne medication options. So as you say likely a better choice for folks struggling with severe acne. You also aren't just focused on skincare. I see offerings for hair loss and eyelash growth so a bit more of a one-stop-shop for facial aesthetics which I'm sure some customers would find useful.
However, as a customer who is looking for a custom topical prescription and doesn't require oral medication, the price point for medicated facial cream being $90 for a 3-month supply vs. Curology which is ~$60 for a 3-month supply is why I likely won't convert to your product. That being said, I'm excited to see how Apostrophe evolves over time and whether my opinion changes!
@ryan_hambley1@karlnislow Thanks for the great question and for your thoughtful response! Just to clarify, Curology uses mid-level providers (such as Physician Assistants), not medical doctors (MD's) certified by the American Board of Dermatology. Our doctors are really the cream of the crop. They care about your skin and want to see it get better! They have the knowledge and expertise that comes from years of school and experience, and they have an arsenal of medications at their disposal to provide you the absolute best treatment.

Thanks Dr. Paik! I think that's a great distinguishing factor to call out. Just to fact check your statement slightly, Curology uses, "board-certified dermatologist, physician assistant, or nurse practitioner" (https://support.curology.com/art...). For example, I am partnered with a board certified dermatologist myself but someone else might not be so perhaps a little more hit or miss.
Anyway, thank you both again for answering my questions.
@rachel_w_reddick thank you for trying Apostrophe and sharing your feedback with PH! We are lucky to have you as a patient and are here any time you need us.
