Clarity ProThe Clarity Pro system can depict the depth and severity of wrinkles, the number of inflamed pores, or the UV damage on your face. Soon, it will be able to predict likelihood of skin cancer.

Treatments and Testing

The system is due to be released next month to spas, clinics, and cosmetics companies. Doctors will be able to use it to recommend treatments, and independent researchers may also use it to test the effectiveness of various anti-aging procedures and creams.

Digital Pictures

Clarity Pro works by taking digital imagery of the skin, and then using special software to measure factors such as:

  • Skin-tone evenness
  • Pore health
  • Skin type, moisture, and elasticity
  • UV damage

    I just love all the advances that technology provides. I thought you might be interested in another "marvel" of technology called the Clarity Pro system, which you may be seeing one day soon at your local health spa.

    If you really want to maintain healthier, younger skin, I would recommend the following natural treatments and precautions:
