Lincolnshire, IL – January 2008 – VISIA Complexion Analysis, the first skin care photographic imaging tool that provides clinical measurement of surface and subsurface facial skin conditions, is now available at Skinfo Specialty Skincare Boutique. “VISIA is a new technology that makes it possible for a client to receive facial rejuvenation and skin care treatments designed specifically for their unique complexion profile,” said Dr. Amy Forman Taub, MD, Owner, of Skinfo.
In use by cosmetic surgeons, dermatologists, and other medical and skin care professionals, the VISIA Complexion Analysis System is a self-contained unit that captures multi-spectral photos of the face, examining the complexion for wrinkles, spots, pores, texture, porphyrins (evidence of bacteria in pores), UV spots (characteristic of photodamage, typically from overexposure to sun), pigmented spots and acne. Additionally, VISIA grades an individual’s skin features relative to others of the same age and skin type.
VISIA imaging and analysis helps medical and skin care professionals develop more targeted treatment programs, communicate more effectively with clients, and better track treatment outcomes. “The VISIA system measures skin features that previously could only be evaluated subjectively,” Taub said, “providing the capability to provide facial rejuvenation and skin care matched to each person’s unique complexion profile.” By objectively establishing skin condition, VISIA’s comprehensive measurement of a client’s standard and UV photos makes it very easy for the client to see and understand exactly what is being discussed regarding skin renewal treatment options.
Based on the complexion profile, the client’s facial rejuvenation program can also include optimized recommendations for ongoing skin care health, with VISIA imaging as an invaluable aid in monitoring complexion vitality and checking effectiveness of the skin care regimen over time. “Every client who is imaged with VISIA can also receive a printed skin analysis report to take home,” Taub said. The VISIA reports include analysis results and treatment recommendations from the client’s skin care professional.
With ever-growing interest in anti-aging and lifestyle-driven procedures, VISIA Complexion Analysis is a valuable new tool for use by medical and skin care professionals in working with clients to provide advanced skin care treatments to enhance complexion vitality and appearance.
