Skin condition

DermaLab Aesthetic

Five objective readings of the skin, taken chairside in a few minutes, on an instrument built by hand in Denmark.

A photograph records what the skin looks like. This records what it is doing.

DermaLab Aesthetic uses contact probes rather than a lens. Ultrasound reads collagen beneath the surface; the other probes read elasticity, hydration, pH and sebum. Together they give you and the patient a value that can be tracked from one visit to the next.

Where it fits in the patient's visit

Step 1

Baseline

Measure at the first consult, before anything has been recommended.

Step 2

Plan

Build the treatment and skincare plan around what the readings show.

Step 3

Re-measure

Repeat the same measurements at the follow-up visit.

Step 4

Show

Give the patient the change as a number, not as an impression.

The software does the remembering

The system prompts each measurement in order, so a new team member can run a complete assessment without memorizing a protocol. Results land on one page in language a patient follows, hold against that patient's earlier visits, and print or email so the analysis leaves the room with them.
