Digital health platform myAster said it has reached more than 2.8m downloads and impacted over 5m lives in just three years, as the GCC’s leading omnichannel app for health, wellness, and beauty expands its footprint and digital offerings.
Launched in 2022 by Aster DM Healthcare, the app connects users with 7 hospitals, 72 clinics, and over 680 doctors across 30 specialties, offering a range of services from instant GP consultations and homecare visits to diagnostics and lab testing.
Users can book virtual consultations with a general physician in as little as 10–15 minutes, with more than 50,000 video consultations completed to date.
“myAster was built on the belief that healthcare and wellness should be connected, convenient, and centered around the individual,” said Nalla Kurunaithy, CEO of Digital Health & Omnichannel at Aster DM Healthcare. “Our growth reflects a shift in how people want to experience care – seamlessly blending medical, preventive, and self-care services through one trusted platform.”
myAster App: Key features
The app has broadened its focus beyond traditional healthcare into holistic wellness and beauty. Its Health Profile feature allows users to monitor vital parameters such as blood pressure, glucose levels, and body measurements, while Lab on App consolidates prescriptions, reports, and radiology results in one place. To support mental wellbeing, the platform also includes guided breathing exercises for stress management.
In the beauty segment, myAster hosts thousands of skincare and wellness products, including a curated selection of K-Beauty brands. Its AI-powered myBeauty Lens analyses more than 18 skin metrics to deliver personalised skincare recommendations that can be purchased directly through the app.
For greater convenience, myAster has expanded its 24/7 express delivery service to Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, and Ras Al Khaimah, with delivery times of around 90 minutes.
Earlier this year, the platform launched in Saudi Arabia, introducing Arabic voice support and AI-driven symptom analysis in partnership with Google Cloud, enabling users to describe symptoms in their native dialect for more accurate and culturally relevant responses.
With its growing suite of services, myAster is positioning itself as a one-stop destination for health, wellness, and beauty in the GCC, combining medical care, lifestyle management, and e-commerce into a single digital ecosystem.
