VISIA® Skin Analysis in Brussels: A Clearer View of the Skin at House of Glow
Discover VISIA® Skin Analysis
Some skin concerns are visible at first glance. Others develop beneath the surface, long before they can be seen in the mirror.
VISIA® skin analysis is now available at House of Glow. This technology gives Dr. Gijsen and Nurse Julitta a clearer view of the skin, beyond the surface, so every treatment plan starts from a precise assessment.
What is VISIA®?
VISIA® is an advanced skin analysis system developed by Canfield Scientific. Its capture module moves around your face to take high-resolution images from the front and both sides, under three types of light: standard, cross-polarised and UV. The skin surface can also be viewed in 3D, from any angle.
Each type of light reveals different information. Together, they show features on the surface of the skin and just beneath it, which are difficult to assess with the naked eye.
The images are analysed by the VISIA® software and reviewed with you during a consultation.
What Does VISIA® Analyse?
VISIA® maps eight key skin features:
- Spots: brown or red marks visible on the surface of the skin
- Wrinkles: lines and folds linked to sun exposure and loss of elasticity
- Texture: variations in the smoothness of the skin surface
- Pores: the size and distribution of visible pores
- UV spots: sun damage beneath the surface, not yet visible to the eye
- Brown spots: pigmentation on and below the surface
- Red areas: concentrations of redness, which can relate to inflammation or visible vessels
- Porphyrins: bacterial by-products that can lodge in the pores
RBX® technology separates the red and brown components of the skin, showing redness and pigmentation more clearly.
How Does the Scan Work?
The scan is quick, non-invasive and comfortable.
- Your skin is cleansed, without make-up.
- You place your face in the VISIA® capture module.
- The module moves around your face and takes images from the front and both sides, under the three types of light.
- The software analyses the images and maps each of the eight features.
- We review the results with you and discuss your priorities.
Why It Matters for Your Treatment Plan
A precise understanding of the skin helps us choose the right approach for each concern.
The VISIA® analysis allows us to:
- Identify what the eye cannot always see
- Prioritise the concerns that matter most to you
- Select the most appropriate treatments and settings
- Explain clearly what we see and why we recommend a treatment
It is part of our approach to Skin Health & Conscious Aesthetic Care: understand the skin first, then treat it.
Following Your Skin Over Time
A precise positioning grid ensures that each scan is taken from exactly the same position. Your diagnostic and evaluation scans can then be compared in detail, so we can closely follow the evolution of your skin and adjust your treatment plan if needed.
A VISIA® scan can be booked separately, but is also automatically included at the start and end of our laser protocols, our Skin Resurfacing Protocol, Microneedling and Medical Peelings.
