VISIA skin analysis measures seven key parameters: UV spots (subsurface sun damage), brown spots (visible pigmentation), red areas (inflammation and vascular concerns), pores, wrinkles, texture irregularities, and porphyrins (bacterial activity). Each parameter provides objective data that guides personalised treatment planning beyond what visual assessment alone can detect.

Understanding VISIA: The Science Behind Skin Analysis Technology

Understanding-VISIA-The-Science-Behind-Skin-Analysis-Technology
VISIA is a medical-grade facial imaging system that captures high-resolution photographs under multiple light spectrums, including standard, cross-polarised, and UV lighting. This multi-spectral approach reveals subsurface skin conditions invisible to the naked eye, including hidden sun damage, melanin distribution, porphyrins, and vascular patterns, providing objective data for personalised treatment planning.
