    Cura · The 11pm questions

    The five questions every dermatology patient asks at 11pm.

    These are the real questions Cura answers when your front desk is closed. Each one is grounded in your verified protocols and tagged to where the patient is in recovery.

    Is this scab normal?

    Scab formation by day 3 is typical after a procedure. Keep the area moist with the recommended ointment. If the scab is hot, weeping, or spreading, message your provider.

    Verified by your clinic
    Day 3
    Can I use SPF on the treated area?

    Mineral SPF 30+ is recommended starting day 7 unless your clinic said otherwise. Reapply every 2 hours when outside. Skip chemical sunscreens until day 14.

    Verified by your clinic
    Day 7
    Why is the redness spreading?

    A faint pink halo around the treated area is typical for the first 5 days. Spreading redness with warmth or red streaks is not. If that's what you see, message your provider tonight.

    Verified by your clinic
    Day 1 to 5
    When can I use retinol again?

    Most clinics restart retinol around day 10 to 14 once the skin barrier feels normal. Start every other night. Stop if you see new redness or peeling.

    Verified by your clinic
    Day 10
    Should I keep covering it?

    Occlusive dressings come off at day 5 for most procedures. After that, keep the area moisturized and shielded with SPF in daylight. No need to bandage at night.

    Verified by your clinic
    Day 5

    Every answer is clinic-verified. Cura never invents a medication.

    The Science of Peak Relief

    The 5-star moment lands before the redness fully fades.

    The peak-end rule (Kahneman, Redelmeier): patients remember a recovery by its emotional peak, not its full length. QR Rx fires the review prompt at 75% of the recovery window, when the result is visible and the redness is mostly gone.

    01·Mohs surgery

    “In the mirror without flinching.”

    Why dermatology

    Built around the three things that drive derm outcomes.

    From wound care after a biopsy to the next annual skin check, every gap is closed.

    01 · Wound care

    Wound care that actually gets done.

    After a biopsy or excision, patients are scared to touch the dressing. We give them day-by-day instructions with photos of normal vs. abnormal healing. They follow through. Your infection rate stays low.

    02 · Skin cancer follow-up

    Make annual skin checks happen.

    60% of skin cancer patients miss their recommended follow-up. We bake the next-visit reminder into the recovery plan, with a one-tap booking link. The annual visit happens before the patient forgets.

    03 · Photo documentation

    Track healing without an in-office visit.

    Patients upload progress photos for your review, encrypted and tied to the care plan. You see healing without scheduling a follow-up. The dashboard flags any patient whose healing looks off.

    The cost of doing nothing

    What you're losing every time follow-up doesn't happen.

    Numbers based on industry averages for a derm practice. Yours will vary by case mix. The point is the cost is real, even if it's not on a line item.

    The evidence

    Structured aftercare isn't a nicety. It's where outcomes and retention are decided.

    The days after a procedure are when patients forget instructions, drift from the plan, and quietly decide whether to come back. The literature on recall, adherence, and retention is consistent, and it points to the same intervention: timely, structured follow-up.

    40–80%1

    of the medical information a patient is given is forgotten almost immediately, and nearly half of what they do retain is recalled incorrectly.

    78%2

    of patients leave with an incomplete understanding of their care and discharge instructions, and most don't realize it.

    30–85%3

    more profit follows from improving customer retention by just 5%. Retention compounds, and the post-procedure window is where it's kept or lost.

    Why it works

    A day-aware care plan closes the recall gap, the patient has the right instruction at the right stage instead of a sheet they lost on day one. It keeps them engaged through the window where complications actually appear, and it gives your team a record of who is on track and who isn't, without anyone making a single phone call.

    Clinical proof point

    It reads what the patient reports, and flags your team

    When a patient checks in with a symptom, the system recognizes whether it matches a known warning pattern for that procedure at that stage, and quietly surfaces them to your in-app inbox with a short, clinic-facing reason. It is a heads-up, not a diagnosis, connecting the dots so your team decides the next move, before it becomes an after-hours call.

    Non-diagnostic by design. The clinic always decides.

Industry comparables run higher: aesthetic loyalty programs see 20-30% repeat-visit lift, dental recall reminder systems see 15-25%, reactivation email campaigns see 3-8% per send compounded across touchpoints. Your numbers will vary by specialty and implementation.

    Patients don't disappear after recovery.

    Three automated touchpoints keep recovered patients warm. Built into every plan, no extra cost.

    Compared to what you have

    QR Rx vs. the patchwork stack.

    Most clinics run aftercare across email templates, a CRM, a review tool, and a clipboard. Here is what each layer costs you in time, leakage, and missed revenue.

    Frequently asked

    Dermatology questions, answered straight.

    Will my patients actually use a QR code?
    Most adults have used a QR code at a restaurant or pharmacy in the last six months. They point a phone, type their date of birth, and the plan is on screen in ten seconds. The few who can't get the printed version too.
    Does it work with ModMed, Nextech, or eClinicalWorks?
    ModMed and Nextech are in our pilot program. eClinicalWorks and any other system connect through Zapier, Make, Calendly, Acuity, a CSV upload, or a self-intake link.
    How does it handle wound care after biopsy or excision?
    Day-by-day wound care instructions with photos of normal vs. abnormal healing. Patients see what's expected at each stage. Your infection rate stays low. The 'is this normal' calls drop.
    What about Mohs follow-up?
    The plan includes the next skin check at the right interval (3, 6, or 12 months) with a one-tap booking link. The annual visit books before the patient forgets.
    Can patients upload photos for review?
    Yes. Patients submit progress photos for your review. Photos are encrypted, tied to the care plan, and never shared with marketing or analytics. You see healing without a follow-up visit.
    Is QR Rx HIPAA compliant?
    Yes. BAA at signup. PHI encrypted in transit and at rest. Every view logged. No third-party data sharing. Patients verify with QR plus PIN plus date of birth.
    How long does setup take?
    Under five minutes for the first care plan. Fifteen for the practice (logo, brand color, team invites, PMS link, starter templates). Most derm clinics send their first plan on day one of the trial.
    Can I customize my wound care protocol?
    Every template is yours to edit. Instructions, prescriptions, milestones, photo schedule, follow-up dates. Already have your protocols? Drop them in.
    What about a patient without a smartphone?
    Hand them the printed plan. Same content, same instructions, same emergency number. Most derm clinics print and send the QR.
    What does it cost?
    $299 a month for one location. $149 a month for each extra location, up to fifteen. Unlimited care plans, five team seats included (extra seats $29 a month). 30-day free trial, cancel anytime.
