What Is Skin Analysis?
Our Skin Analysis is a detailed assessment that looks beneath the surface to identify and understand your skin's unique characteristics and needs.
Using a state-of-the-art skin scanning device, Nurse Louise examines the factors affecting your skin health and appearance. The insights help us design a personalised treatment plan tailored to your skin type, condition and goals.
Ultimately, you'll receive a full overview of your skin’s hydration, elasticity, pore health, pigmentation sun damage and more. It's the perfect starting point for an effective skincare regime, and future skin treatments such as Microneedling or Polynucleotides.
How Does Skin Analysis Work?
Our Skin Analysis uses light and imaging technology to capture a clear, accurate view of your skin's underlying structure. The scanner evaluates:
Hydration Levels – Identifies areas that may need moisture or hydration support to improve skin texture and feel.
Sun Damage – Detects UV damage beneath the surface, highlighting areas that are prone to early aging or pigmentation.
Pore Health – Assesses pore size and congestion, which can help in managing acne or oily skin concerns.
Causes of Acne - Determines whether acne is bacterial or hormonal.
Pigmentation and Tone – Highlights areas with discolouration, dark spots and pigmentation, allowing for targeted treatments.
Wrinkles and Fine Lines – Measures depth and prominence of wrinkles to create a personalised anti-ageing plan.
Overall Skin Texture and Vitality – Offers a complete view of the skin’s firmness, elasticity and smoothness.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Can I Expect During My Skin Analysis?
​
During your skin analysis, Nurse Louise will use an advanced skin scanner to assess various aspects of your skin, including hydration, sun damage, pores, pigmentation, wrinkles and overall texture. The process is non-invasive and comfortable. Afterwards, we'll walk you through the results and provide tailored recommendations based on your skin’s needs.
Who Is Skin Analysis Suitable For?
​
Skin analysis is suitable for anyone looking to gain deeper insights into their skin’s health, regardless of skin type, age or specific concerns. Whether you're dealing with issues like acne or dryness, or simply want to optimise your skincare routine, skin analysis is an ideal starting point.
How Often Should I Get A Skin Analysis?
​
We recommend a skin analysis every 6 to 12 months, or whenever you notice significant changes in your skin or want to adjust your skincare routine. Regular sessions will help you monitor progress, adapt treatments, and ensure your skincare plan remains effective.
How Long Does The Skin Analysis Treatment Take?
​
A skin analysis session typically takes about 30 minutes, including the scan itself and a thorough review of the results. If you choose to pair the analysis with another treatment, your appointment time may be slightly longer.

Will I Get A Treatment Plan After?​
Yes! Based on your skin’s unique profile, we can create a customised skincare plan that may include recommended treatments and products, including options from our DB Milano skincare range. This plan is designed to help you maintain healthy, radiant skin both in the clinic and at home.
