The spa's beauty coaches use a diagnostic device called the "skin scope" which analyzes the face with a gentle ultraviolet light.
It shows which areas ay be dehydrated, which have oil issues, etc., Then the beauty coach recommends a personalized care regimen. The scope session is always at no charge to the client.
Many come in more than once a year, even quarterly, and adjust care routines depending on what the scope says. Founder Korin Korman says her products have been developed with the approval of medical professionals.
There is a clinical line of products offering greater strength for clients who might need help with a particular skin issue. While no dermatologist is routinely on the premises, some doctors find the skin scope useful in caring for their own patients.
