Scientific skin analysis

3D MetaView
AI skin analysis.

Before suggesting a plan, we take a closer look at your skin. The 3D MetaView system scans the face in three dimensions with several light sources, and AI-assisted analysis organises the data into a clear report for your consultation.

  • 3D scan, multiple lights – a precise three-dimensional scan with four light-source analyses.
  • 12 assessment items – including wrinkles, pores and pigmentation, plus sebum, skin tone and radiance.
  • AI-based data analysis – results are summarised so you and your dermatologist can discuss priorities together.
  • A basis for discussion – the analysis supports, and does not replace, the dermatologist’s examination.

Whether analysis is recommended is decided at your consultation.
