Automated interpretation of dermoscopic skin images is difficult because visually similar lesions can belong to different diagnostic groups, and the HAM10000 benchmark is markedly imbalanced. DermaLens AI addresses this problem through a browser-accessible platform that combines a MobileNetV2 classifier with contextual clinical information and reporting services. The model starts from ImageNet weights and is adapted to the seven HAM10000 categories: melanocytic nevi, melanoma, benign keratosis, basal cell carcinoma, actinic keratosis, vascular lesion, and dermatofibroma. Its training workflow uses augmentation, lesion-level deduplication, stratified partitioning, weighted sampling, focal loss, AdamW, cosine-annealing warm restarts, gradient clipping, and early stopping. A FastAPI/PyTorch inference service accepts JPEG, PNG, and WEBP files, standardizes them to 224 x 224 pixels, ranks the five leading class probabilities, and produces a structured report with risk information, ABCD-related descriptors, recommendations, and differential conditions. The platform also contains a broader disease knowledge base, optional symptom and anatomical-location inputs, a browser assistant, clinic search with maps, and printable reports. The accessible project snapshot does not contain a verified final training-history artifact or final test metrics; consequently, this manuscript reports the reproducible procedure and system-level behavior without fabricating accuracy Figures 1 and 2. The work demonstrates an integrated architecture for educational and research-oriented skin-lesion analysis, not a clinically validated diagnostic service.
