What is VISIA skin analysis?
VISIA helps us to see and understand the skin's condition. This technology provides insights into UV damage, age spots, facial redness, pores, wrinkles, porphyrins, and skin texture. It can demonstrate any changes in these variables as a result of any facial treatments performed.
VISIA skin analysis is a high-tech imaging device that comprehensively and objectively evaluates the skin's health and condition. The device uses advanced technology to analyze the skin's texture, tone, and skin color, providing valuable insights into the skin's overall health, including wrinkles, age spots, pores, UV or sun damage, brown spots, facial redness, and skin texture.
The VISIA uses a camera with polarized and UV light to capture high-resolution images of the skin from various angles with precision beyond what the eye can see. The images are then analyzed using specialized software that provides a detailed report of the skin's health and condition.
How does it work?
VISIA works by capturing high-resolution images of the skin's surface using advanced technology. The device uses specialized lighting to reveal details of the skin's condition that are not visible to the naked eye. This includes a UV flash that follows the path of UV light from the sun and reveals underlying skin damage not visible under regular lighting conditions.
During the skin analysis, the patient sits in front of the device resting their chin and forehead in the machine, while the camera captures facial images from three angles (right, center, and left). The software then calibrates to analyze the images and provides a detailed report on the skin's condition. The report identifies several skin conditions such as wrinkles, fine lines, pores, skin texture, facial redness, pigmentation irregularities, and UV damage caused by sun exposure. The results are then scored as a percentile for future comparisons.
A detailed, comprehensive report of the skin's condition is provided, identifying the percentile in each category. Based on the analysis, the practitioner/aesthetician can develop a personalized treatment plan with focus on the areas of greater need. This can help individuals to become more aware and proactively manage their skin. For example, by showing the degree of UV damage present (normally not seen by the naked eye) and motivating one to use sunscreen. By visualizing and identifying potential problems early, the VISIA can help individuals take preventative measures or seek appropriate treatments.
Common skin features detected by the VISIA skin analysis
By identifying the below skin features, VISIA skin analysis helps practitioners develop personalized treatment plans and products tailored to the individual's unique needs, helping to improve the skin's health and appearance.
VISIA skin analysis can detect various skin features, including:
What are the benefits of analyzing the skin?
Overall, VISIA skin analysis can help individuals take a proactive approach to treatments, skin care, prevent further damage, and achieve healthier skin.
What is VISIA skin analysis TruAge?
VISIA TruAge is a feature of the VISIA skin analysis system that uses advanced algorithms to estimate a person's 'TruAge' based on their skin's condition. The TruAge estimates a person's biological age, which may differ from their chronological age.
To estimate a person's TruAge, the VISIA machine takes high-definition images of the skin and analyses the data using advanced algorithms. The analysis considers various factors, including wrinkles, texture, brown spots, red areas, and UV spots. Based on this analysis, the VISIA software calculates a person's TruAge and provides a detailed report of their skin's condition and how it compares to others in their age group.
The TruAge feature is designed to provide a more comprehensive assessment of a person's skin health and help them develop a personalized skin care plan that addresses their unique needs and concerns. By identifying areas of the skin that may contribute to premature ageing, such as sun damage or wrinkles, the TruAge feature can help people take proactive steps to maintain youthful-looking skin and minimize the signs of ageing.
