The Analysis

The Analysis

Upload a photograph of one thing that bothers you, a scar, a pigment patch, a red area, a line, and we read it back to you and name the family of light that answers it.

One concernUpload only, no cameraAnalysed in memoryEditorial, never a diagnosis
One thing at a time

Where the Scan reads a whole face across six zones, the Analysis does the opposite: it looks hard at a single concern you can photograph close up. A scar you have stopped mentioning, a patch of pigment that arrived after a summer, a stubborn red flush, one line that catches the light. You get a calm description of what the photograph shows, then the laser families worth asking a practitioner about, and the clinics that hold that hardware.

What it will not do: grade a mole, name a condition, or tell you how many sessions you need. Anything that looks like a mole, a changing spot or a lesion gets one answer here, and it is see a dermatologist.

01 · Frame it

Close, and only the one thing

Fill most of the frame with the area itself, with a little of the surrounding skin for context. One concern per photograph: two in the same frame and the reading hedges.

02 · Light it

Daylight, indirect, no filter

Stand near a window with the light on your side rather than behind you. No flash, no beauty mode, no warming filter: all three quietly rewrite what we are trying to read.

03 · Expect a direction

A family of light, not a booking

You get a description and one to three laser families worth raising with a practitioner. Then the Compass weighs your downtime and tone, and the Radar finds who holds the hardware.

Tick the note beside this frame, then drop a photograph here or choose a file. Close, in even daylight, no filter.

Nothing is sent anywhere until you press read this concern.

The reading
The full small print

The Analysis is informational and editorial only. It is not medical advice, not a diagnosis, and not a substitute for an examination by a qualified practitioner. It reads one photograph in ordinary light, which is a poor instrument next to a dermatoscope or a calibrated clinic booth, and it cannot see below the surface at all.

Consult a qualified dermatologist or practitioner before booking any treatment, and tell them your history, your medication and your sun exposure. Anything resembling a mole, a changing spot, an asymmetric or bleeding lesion needs a dermatologist promptly, and the Analysis will always say so rather than read it. Nothing here is influenced by who advertises with us, because nobody does.

Next: let the Compass weigh downtime, tone and budget, then find who wields that family best on the Radar. For a whole-face reading instead, take the Scan.
