Skin Analysis

Observ 520x

At Leicester MediSpa, we believe that assessing your skin is the first step to creating the most beneficial and suitable treatment plan, for the most impressive results. Unlike in the past, where analysing the skin would consist of looking at the complexion with the naked eye, now we have an advanced technology to help us look further than the upper skin layer, diagnose underlying conditions and concerns and to see deeper in to the dermis, for a more accurate skin assessment. This technology is called Observ 520x.

What is Observ 520x?

Observ 520x is a skin analysis device which consists of 8 different light modes, each showing various skin irregularities and conditions at both the epidermal and dermal layers. It is the latest innovation in skin appearance analysis and is based on the scientific principles of skin fluoresces (the way in which skin cells emit visible light in a unique way, during safe UV light exposure).

What can Observ 520x detect?

The various light modes inside the Observ 520x will reveal different skin concerns, irregularities and textural topography such as sun damage, melasma, pigmentation and ageing, inflammation and vascular conditions. With this tool at our disposal we can see in to the deeper layers of the skin and select the most suitable and effective in-clinic treatment plan and home-use skincare, which means better and more long lasting results. We can also see any skin conditions which are likely to become more visible in months or years to come and detect any concerns at their very starting stages, to better assist us in choosing the most suitable preventative measures; a true investment in the future of your skin.

Does a skin analysis with Observ 520x hurt?

The Observ 520x is a completely pain-free process which requires no pain relief or time for recovery. It is a quick and simple test, which will not leave your skin with any evidence of treatment (such as redness, swelling or needle marks), so you can return to your daily activities immediately afterwards.
