FOR PEOPLE WITH DERMATILLOMANIA
ANAWARENESSTOOL FORSKINPICKING.
Dermatillomania (excoriation disorder) is a BFRB. Like with trich, awareness is the first lever — and most picking happens out of awareness. This free tool sits in the background and beeps when your hand approaches your face.
You catch yourself ten minutes in, when the damage is already done. You want a signal that fires before the spiral, not after.
HOW three steps. that's it.

FAQ
Does this upload my video?
No. The app processes frames locally with on-device models. There is no server, no account, no upload.
Does it cost anything?
No. The desktop app is free. We may add a paid tier later (cloud sync, family plan) but the core detector will stay free.
What do I need to run it?
A Mac (macOS 11+) or Windows 10/11 PC with a webcam. About 200MB of disk.
Will it slow my computer down?
It uses ~5–15% of one CPU core on a modern laptop. No GPU required.
Will this cure dermatillomania?
No. Dermatillomania is a clinical condition; the evidence-based treatment is habit reversal training (often ComB therapy) with a trained clinician. This tool is an awareness signal, not a treatment.
What if I pick somewhere other than my face?
This tool only triggers on hand-near-face. If you pick at your arms, scalp, or elsewhere, it won't help with those sites.
no_touch_face is a habit-awareness tool, not a treatment. Body-focused repetitive behaviors (BFRBs) like trichotillomania and dermatillomania are clinical conditions; the gold-standard treatment is habit reversal training (often ComB therapy) with a trained clinician. If you're looking for help, start at the TLC Foundation for BFRBs.
