Arrive with clean skin and no makeup, sunscreen, or moisturizer for the most accurate results. Avoid exfoliating treatments or peels for 24 to 48 hours before your appointment. This ensures the imaging captures your skin’s true condition.

TruSkin Age estimates how old your skin appears compared to your actual age. It’s calculated based on your combined scores across all eight measurement categories. Many patients at our Austin clinic use this as a benchmark to track improvement over time.

VISIA uses standardized lighting and positioning to produce consistent, reproducible results. This allows for reliable comparisons over time and accurate tracking of treatment progress. The system compares your results against a database of thousands of individuals in your demographic group.
