Skin Imaging

The first step toward achieving your best skin is creating a personalized treatment plan built around your unique complexion. At Destination Aesthetics™, we believe every recommendation should be guided by science, not guesswork. That’s why we offer advanced skin imaging with the Reveal® Imager at our med spa locations in El Dorado Hills, Elk Grove, Folsom, Roseville, and Sacramento, CA. By looking beyond the surface, our team can uncover hidden signs of damage and design a treatment strategy that delivers healthier, more radiant skin.

What Is Skin Imaging?

Skin imaging is an advanced diagnostic tool that uses the Reveal® Imager, a multi-spectrum camera system, to analyze your skin both on and below the surface. Unlike traditional mirrors or even magnification, this technology captures subsurface pigmentation, vascular changes, texture irregularities, and early signs of aging that may not yet be visible. While the Reveal® Imager itself is not a treatment and does not require FDA clearance, it serves as an essential foundation for building your customized skincare plan. With 3D renderings, zoom-in capabilities, and predictive views of future aging patterns, our providers can precisely tailor services to your skin’s needs.

What Is the Reveal® Image & How does it work?

The Reveal® Imager is an advanced camera system used to identify a range of skin concerns. The device uses multiple spectrums of light to capture images on and below the surface. These images give us a full picture of your skin’s health.

The system reveals most, if not all, of the most common skin concerns people visit us for, including:

  • Hyperpigmentation
  • Redness
  • Wrinkles
  • Skin Texture

We’ll look at both your face as a whole and zoom in on specific spots to make sure we’re getting the most detailed analysis possible.

What To Expect At Your Skin Imaging Appointment

What is it like to get a Skin Imaging treatment at Destination Aesthetics™? Here’s a look at what you can expect each step of the way.

Step 1

Your Consultation

Your visit begins with a personalized consultation where one of our experienced providers discusses your skincare goals and concerns. We’ll review your history, evaluate lifestyle factors, and explain how skin imaging can provide insights into both visible and hidden conditions. This ensures that the analysis addresses your priorities and guides a customized plan.

Step 2

Your Treatment

After cleansing your skin, you’ll sit comfortably in front of the Reveal® Imager while it captures detailed multi-spectrum photographs. The process is quick, painless, and noninvasive, taking only a few minutes to complete. These images reveal surface and subsurface concerns such as pigmentation, vascular changes, and early signs of aging.

Step 3

Your Recovery & Results

Since skin imaging is a diagnostic tool, there is no recovery time needed. Immediately after the scan, your provider reviews the results with you and creates a tailored treatment plan. You’ll leave with a deeper understanding of your skin health and a clear path forward to achieve your best results.

More Skin Imaging FAQs

Most appointments take only a few minutes for the imaging itself, followed by a detailed consultation to review results. The entire process usually lasts 30 to 45 minutes, depending on how many concerns are addressed.

No, skin imaging is completely noninvasive and painless. The Reveal® Imager uses light and photography, so you won’t feel any discomfort during the process.

We recommend incorporating imaging into your skincare journey at least once a year or before starting new treatments. Repeat sessions allow us to track your progress and adjust your plan as your skin evolves.

Skin imaging reveals hidden pigmentation, vascular issues, sun damage, and texture irregularities below the surface. These early signs help us treat concerns before they become more visible.

We ask that you come with a clean face so the camera can capture the most accurate results. If you arrive with makeup, we will cleanse your skin before the scan.

Yes. Because the Reveal® Imager captures reproducible images under standardized lighting, it allows us to compare scans from different visits with precision. This makes it easy to see how treatments are working, monitor improvements, and adjust your skincare plan as needed for the best long-term results.

The Reveal® Imager captures high-resolution, multi-spectrum photographs that provide precise information about your skin’s surface and subsurface health. Because the process is standardized and reproducible, it allows us to measure subtle changes over time with exceptional accuracy. This makes it one of the most reliable tools for tracking progress and refining treatment plans.
