## About

Based in Miami, United States and founded in 2009 by Dr. Maurice Ferre (Co-founder) and Christopher Dewey (Co-founder), DermaSensor, Inc. doing business as DermaSensor is a medical device technology company focused on improving skin cancer detection through spectroscopy and machine learning technologies. The company developed an FDA-cleared handheld device that assists healthcare providers in evaluating lesions suspicious for melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, and squamous cell carcinoma. In September 2026, DermaSensor, Inc. raised USD 4 million in series B funding and another USD 1 million from Wefunder.
DermaSensor offers a skin cancer care device, which is a skin cancer prevention instrument that helps to evaluate the risk of skin cancer. The device uses non-invasive optical spectroscopy to find early detection of skin cancer. It provides results directly to the user without the assistance of a laboratory or another doctor.
The company will use the September 2026 funding to expand commercialization of its AI-powered handheld skin cancer detection device and support new U.S. partnerships across healthcare and federal health systems.
