In the realm of skin care, understanding your skin type is one thing, but understanding your unique skin profile will truly take your skincare to the next level. You know we love science-driven approaches that provide natural, medically proven results here at Mint & Needle, and utilizing the VISIA Skin Analysis - Facial Scanner allows us to do just that – but even better. 

With the facial scan, our providers are able to view everything from the dermis layer and upward, and monitor patient progress accordingly. Whether you're dealing with acne, pigmentation, or just seeking to maintain a healthy glow, a scan can provide the insights needed to tailor your skincare regimen effectively. Let’s dive into how this advanced tool can elevate your skincare treatment plan:

What Exactly Is a VISIA Facial Scan?

We’re glad you asked. A VISIA Facial Scan is a comprehensive facial analyzer utilizing innovative imaging to provide intricate details about your skin's health, such as all aspects of aging, sun damage, and texture. This provides an in-depth understanding of your skin's specific needs. 

Is A Visia Skin Analysis Worth It?

Absolutely – but we still want to tell you all about the benefits the VISIA scan offers:

  • Unique to You Results: With detailed insights into your skin's condition provided by the VISIA skin analysis, your provider can create a highly personalized skin care plan. This ensures that the products and treatments you use are specifically suited to your skin type and concerns, maximizing their effectiveness.
  • Pin-Points Specific Issues: The scan evaluates several critical skin health factors, including wrinkles, spots, pores, texture, and UV spots. This thorough analysis allows providers to pinpoint specific issues that need attention that may have been missed in the past. This also eliminates the guesswork that comes with treating certain skin issues, and the trial and error of trying non-effective products.
  • Progress Tracking: We love that VISIA provides us the ability to track changes over time. By comparing images from different sessions, you and your M&N provider can monitor the effectiveness of treatments and make adjustments as needed. This continuous feedback loop ensures that your skincare regimen evolves with your skin’s changing needs.
  • Preventative Care: A scan can reveal underlying issues before they become visible on the surface. This proactive approach helps in addressing potential skin problems early, preventing them from escalating. This allows you and your provider to work to potentially correct any issues before they become surface level.

How Does It Work?

As you sit comfortably, the VISIA system uses high-definition imaging and different light spectra to take photos of your face at multiple angles to provide a detailed analysis of your skin. The scan is completely non-invasive, and able to identify concerns that are not visible to the naked eye, allowing your provider to have a deeper understanding of your skin's needs.
