VISIA Skin Analysis

visia tampaVISIA skin analysis enables plastic surgeons like Dr. Albear in Pasco County to analyze your skin more comprehensively. Using VISIA, he can more closely analyze skin texture to assess the severity of wrinkles, folds, and sun damage. He can thereby optimize treatment, tailoring your skincare treatment to better meet your expectations.

In Tampa, VISIA's innovative technology allows both the plastic surgeon and patients to enjoy the following benefits:

  • Multi-spectral imaging and analysis
  • 3D viewing
  • High resolution
  • Aging simulation
  • Quantitative assessment of skin features

Your Consultation for VISIA in Tampa

As the patient, you are able to view the live, 3D image of your facial landscape along with Dr. Albear, right in his Wesley Chapel office location. During the appointment, he will make note of the following 6 areas affecting complexion that the VISIA imaging system captures:

  1. Wrinkles
  2. Spots
  3. Pores
  4. Evenness
  5. Porphyrins (evidence of bacteria in pores)
  6. UV spots

Upon facial analysis of these six areas, your skin features are then compared to others of the same sex, age and ethnicity, and are evaluated. Dr. Albear then bases his treatment plan on the feedback provided by VISIA in Tampa. Because you view the same images off of which Dr. Albear bases his diagnosis and recommended treatment, you are actually involved in the diagnostic process. Dr. Albear can more clearly communicate the conditions he sees, and how his approach will combat conditions such as sun damage or wrinkles.

Each VISIA skin analysis session requires about 10 to 15 minutes. Pasco County plastic surgeon Dr. Albear will then advise you on treatment options available at our practice.
