Coded using Gemini Pro 2.5 (free version) in about 2-3 hours.

Single file including all html/js/css, Vanilla JS, no backend, scores persisted with localStorage.

Deployed using ubuntu/apache2/python/flask on a £5 Digital Ocean server (but could have been hosted on a static hosting provider as it's just a single page with no backend).

Images / metadata stored in an AWS S3 bucket.

Why would a dermatologist want to just remove but not biopsy a suspected facial skin cancer?

There would be no reason to do this - skin lesions removed are almost always sent for pathological analysis even if expected to be harmless
