VISIA® Skin Analysis

Facial imaging system that measures brown spots, pores, wrinkles, evenness, porphyrins (evidence of bacteria in pores), UV spots, and photodamage.

How Does VISIA® Work?

A medical professional will operate VISIA® Skin Analysis to properly scan your skin, looking at its strengths and weaknesses. VISIA® scans measure your skin pigmentation, and pore size, porphyrins (evidence of bacteria lodged in pores). It also scans UV spots, sun damage, texture, and wrinkles. With this assessment, we can compare your skin condition within your peer group.

Insights from VISIA® help us tailor a more targeted treatment program for your specific needs, while also tracking your progress and treatment outcomes over time.

  • SPOTS

  • Typically brown or red skin marks, distinguishable by the distinct color and contrast from the background skin tone. Spots vary in size and shape, and are normally visible to the naked eye.
