SkinCeuticals SkinScope
Introducing the next generation of portable, full-face diagnostics.
While some skin concerns and imperfections are visible in everyday light, some will only be visible under UV light which highlights damage beneath the skin’s surface by detecting skin’s fluorescence. The SkinScope reveals visible and underlying skin imperfections including accumulated sun damage, oily skin and congested pores, dehydrated and thinner skin areas and uneven texture.
1. The simulated Daylight mode allows for the clear illumination of ‘visible’ concerns to the patient and skincare professional. The diagnostic advisor can pinpoint what concerns the patient has and can highlight areas of redness, irritation, visible dryness, oiliness, wrinkles, and pigmentation.
2. The LED-UV mode illuminates sub-surface imperfections visualized by the fluorescence of the skin. This brings to life concerns that may be faintly visible in daylight but are acutely emphasized under UV light. While healthy skin reflects back UV light creating a blue glow, melanin in the skin absorbs the light showing as dark spots on the surface of the face. Similarly, congested pores give off pink or orange fluorescence, oily skin is visible in a yellow color, and dry flaky skin shines as bright white fluorescence. Large patches of darker blue indicate areas of thinner, dehydrated skin.
