Skin Analysis

Skin Analysis (OBSERV): The Scientific Way to Truly Understand Your Skin

The first step toward healthy, radiant, and balanced skin is to understand it correctly and determine its needs scientifically.
What we see with the naked eye is only the surface — yet beneath that surface lie many hidden details: sun damage, dehydration, pigmentation irregularities, enlarged pores, capillary issues, and early signs of aging.
The OBSERV Skin Analysis system is a modern imaging technology that reveals all these details, serving as a crucial step in dermatology for personalized treatment planning.

What is OBSERV?

OBSERV is an advanced digital imaging system that analyzes different layers of the skin using various light modes. Through this system, not only visible concerns but also underlying skin problems that cannot yet be seen with the naked eye can be detected.

The skin is examined under multiple lighting conditions, including ultraviolet (UV) and polarized light.
This allows detailed visualization of:

  • Pigmentation beneath the skin (melanin distribution)
  • Hidden vascular dilations
  • Dehydrated areas
  • Pore and sebum imbalances
  • Comedone-prone regions
  • Sun damage and early aging signs

How is OBSERV Skin Analysis Performed?

  1. The skin is cleansed before the session.
  2. The patient places their head inside the device.
  3. The OBSERV system scans the skin within seconds under different light modes.
  4. The obtained images are analyzed in detail by the dermatologist.
  5. The skin type, conditions, and needs are identified.
  6. A personalized treatment and skincare protocol is created accordingly.

The procedure is completely painless, contactless, and quick — lasting only about 5–10 minutes.

Light Modes Used in OBSERV Analysis

The skin is evaluated under six different light modes:

  • Natural light: Shows the overall appearance of the skin.
  • Cross-polarized light: Eliminates surface reflections, revealing even skin tone.
  • Parallel polarized light: Highlights texture irregularities and pore visibility.
  • UV light: Exposes underlying pigment accumulations and sun damage.
  • True UV: Displays melanin density and pigmentation tendency.
  • Woods light: Detects moisture balance, oil distribution, and circulation irregularities.

Through this comprehensive imaging process, the root causes of skin issues can be precisely identified.

What Can Be Detected with OBSERV Skin Analysis?

  • Sunspots and melasma risk
  • Acne-prone and comedone-congested areas
  • Weak skin barrier and dehydration
  • Capillary dilation and rosacea tendency
  • Enlarged pores
  • Collagen loss and reduced elasticity
  • Uneven tone and pigmentation irregularities
  • Skin aging rate

Why is Skin Analysis Important?

Skincare and treatment plans should be based not on “what feels wrong,” but on scientific data. The OBSERV device analyzes both the surface and deeper layers of the skin, enabling targeted, personalized treatment planning.

After this analysis:

  • Unnecessary treatments are avoided,
  • Proper skincare products are selected,
  • Treatment progress is accurately monitored,
  • The skin’s regeneration process is tracked scientifically.

Which Treatments Should Precede Skin Analysis?

OBSERV analysis is often performed before various dermatological and aesthetic procedures:

  • Pigmentation treatments (PicoLaser, chemical peels)
  • Acne and comedone management
  • Wrinkle and anti-aging procedures
  • Hydration and skin barrier restoration
  • Skin rejuvenation (PRP, mesotherapy, stem cell, exosome therapy)

Thus, treatments address not only the symptoms but also the root cause of skin problems.

Skin Analysis from a Dermatologist’s Perspective

Skin analysis is far more than an aesthetic procedure — it is your personal skin map. Every individual’s skin type, genetics, and lifestyle are unique. Thanks to the OBSERV system, these differences can be scientifically evaluated, allowing for the creation of a personalized and effective skincare plan.

Conclusion

The key to healthy skin is accurate diagnosis. OBSERV Skin Analysis reveals both visible and hidden aspects of your skin, guiding you toward the most effective treatment path. As a result, your skin doesn’t just look beautiful — it becomes truly healthy.
