At a glance
What we observed in this category
Brisbane Skin leads the category with a composite score of 22.5, driven entirely by a 75% citation rate against a category average citation rate of 12.5%. No brand in the audit records any visibility at all, meaning the gap between Brisbane Skin and every other brand is a citation gap rather than a visibility gap. Eight of the ten tracked brands score zero on both metrics, which means the effective competitive landscape in Google AI Mode is compressed into just two active brands.
The divergence between being named and being trusted as a source is sharp here. Skin Partners holds rank 2 with a 50% citation rate despite zero visibility, mirroring Brisbane Skin's pattern exactly. Brisbane Dermatology previously held 25% visibility but has now fallen to zero visibility with no citation gain, suggesting it lost AI mention presence without converting that presence into verified citations. Cutis Dermatology dropped four rank positions and lost 50 percentage points of citation rate, the steepest citation fall in the dataset.
Google AI Mode is the top engine recorded for every brand in this audit, so no cross-engine differentiation is observable in the data. The top cited sources listed include google.com, skinpartners.com.au, theskinlab.com.au, brisbaneskin.com.au, and instagram.com, indicating the AI is pulling from a mix of clinic domains and social platforms. Two brands that appear in the citation source list, theskinlab.com.au and brisbanewestderm.com.au, are not among the ten tracked brands, which points to out-of-set sources influencing AI responses in this category.

How to read this ranking
Four things worth knowing before you act on the numbers above. These are the same definitions across every industry page — for category-specific observations, see the What we observed section above (where available) and the per-brand insights inline in the ranking.
Visibility = being named
A brand's visibility % is the share of AI answers that mention it by name in the response prose. This is who AI engines actively recommend to the buyer. More on visibility →
Citation rate = being trusted
Citation rate is the share of AI answers that include the brand's domain as a clickable source link. This is what the AI treats as authoritative evidence, different from being named. More on citation rate →
Top engine differs by brand
The "top engine" column shows which AI surface each brand performs best on. Big gaps between a brand's score across engines usually points to specific content or schema gaps. How AI engines pick sources →
Rankings move month to month
AI engines re-crawl and re-rank on shorter cycles than classical search. We re-audit every brand on this list at least every 30 days and refresh this page automatically. How AI search ranking works →
