Skin Health Analysis Visia™ - Learn about your skin health in depth

When it comes to the health and appearance of skin, the mirror does not reveal the entire tale because your reflection in the mirror is entirely subjective. Are those folds running from your nose to your mouth really getting deeper or are you just feeling more self-critical today? And, while your reflection can show you the current condition of your skin, it cannot predict the future. That is why Visia™ Complexion Analysis can be such a useful tool.

Visia™ Complexion Analysis uses multi-spectral imaging to reveal damage and signs of ageing on and beneath the surface of the skin that is not visible to the human eye. The computer imaging enables SkinSmart Dermatology practitioners to evaluate the health and appearance of your skin based on six criteria that affect your complexion: wrinkles, spots, pores, evenness (skin tone color variation), porphyrins (evidence of bacteria in your pores), and UV spots caused by overexposure to the sun. It also does something remarkable: It displays sun damage lurking beneath the skin.

SkinSmart Dermatology uses this skin data to determine an effective rejuvenation regime for your specific needs, including a number of treatments such as skin peels, laser treatment or anti-aging injections with Botox® and Restylane®.  A home routine is essential using daily care and cleansing with products to match your skin type, life style, age, and skin condition.

Q: What is the Visia™ complexion cnalysis?

A: The Visia™ system takes digital photos of your face and measures wrinkles, pores, pigmentation and texture. It then grades these skin characteristics in comparison to other individuals of the same age, gender, and ethnicity.


Q: Why is this analysis useful?

A:  Results will help us tailor a complete skincare regimen and treatment plan to address both current concerns and future needs. Rather than guessing, the Visia™ analysis tells us precisely what the skin needs to be radiantly healthy.

Q: Can I combine the skin health analysis with a cosmetic consultation?

A: The skin health analysis is usually given in combination with the cosmetic consultation but it can be booked separately.

Q: Is Visia™ right for me?

A:  Visia™ Complexion Analysis is suitable for all skin types and skin tones.  The system provides easy to understand reports and recommendations for preventative or remedial actions and is increasingly being used around the world as an educational tool on the need for proper sun protection.  Teenagers will also benefit from the Visia system.  Care-free and typically hard to persuade, but often most at risk of sun damage during these years, teens respond immediately to the visual demonstrations of aging offered by the Visia™ system.
