VISIA® skin analysis is designed to take the guesswork out of your skincare. At Lycia Thornburg, MD Dermatology, Dr. Lycia Thornburg and her team use this advanced imaging technology to evaluate your skin with exceptional detail, capturing both visible features and underlying changes that are not yet apparent. This comprehensive view allows for more precise recommendations, so your treatment plan is based on real data, not assumptions. Whether you are looking to address specific concerns or better understand your skin over time, VISIA provides a clear, personalized roadmap to help you care for your skin with confidence.
Identify Hidden Skin Concerns Early
VISIA skin analysis is a diagnostic imaging system that allows you to see your skin with a level of clarity that goes far beyond the mirror. Using specialized lighting (standard, cross-polarized, and UV), it captures detailed images that reveal surface concerns and underlying damage. It evaluates wrinkles, pigmentation, pores, texture, redness, and UV exposure, then compares your results to those of others your age. Dr. Thornburg can help you understand what’s happening in your skin today and what to address for the future.
VISIA Skin Analysis Identifies:
- Wrinkles and fine lines across key facial areas
- Pore size and distribution patterns
- Skin texture irregularities and roughness
- Brown spots from sun damage and aging
- Red areas associated with inflammation or vascular changes
- UV damage not yet visible on the surface
- Porphyrins linked to oil buildup and acne activity
- Overall skin age compared to your peers
Your VISIA Skin Analysis at Thornburg MD Dermatology
Your VISIA skin analysis begins with a thoughtful consultation with Dr. Thornburg, during which your concerns, goals, and skin history are discussed. She takes a measured, evidence-based approach, using advanced imaging to understand your skin from the inside out. This allows you to move toward clarity, with a plan that reflects both what you see and what is developing beneath the surface.
During imaging, your face is positioned within the VISIA system, which captures a series of high-resolution images under different lighting conditions. Dr. Thornburg reviews these findings with you in real time, highlighting areas that reveal signs of UV damage, pigmentation, and texture changes. From there, she guides you toward a treatment plan that supports healthier, more resilient skin.
