Cosmetology is an innovative software module designed for comprehensive skin assessment and the development of personalized recommendations for specialists in aesthetic medicine, dermatologists, cosmetologists, and nutrition experts.
The Cosmetology Module integrates functional diagnostic data with knowledge from dermatology, skin anatomy and physiology to provide a holistic understanding of skin condition based on the patient’s constitutional characteristics. The parameters in the module reflect overall skin tendencies as an organ, which may manifest differently depending on the localization of issues — on the hands, face, etc.
Skin condition changes throughout life under the influence of numerous internal and external factors, just like the individual’s current functional state or constitutional type. The module captures constitutional tendencies characteristic of the patient’s type and helps identify hidden internal causes of skin issues, enabling the selection of personalized skincare strategies and cosmetic procedures.
This approach allows addressing not only the visible symptoms but also the underlying causes, ensuring long-term and noticeable results.
The Cosmetology Module consists of four sections:
Skin Type, Structure, Regeneration, Skin Microbiome
The Skin Type section plays a key role in identifying individual skin characteristics to determine the optimal care protocol. It helps reveal constitutional features, assess moisture and lipid deficiencies, and evaluate sensitivity.
The section includes information about skin types (dry, oily, combination, normal) and appropriate care methods.
Skin type and current condition are displayed using a triad diagram with three parameters: Dryness, Puffiness, and Oiliness.
Evaluating each parameter separately, as well as their interaction, allows specialists to determine unique skin traits and select optimal care strategies: cleansing, toning, moisturizing, nourishing, exfoliation, etc.
Recommendations include optimal care frequency, specialized skincare products, serums, night care options, and more.
Accurate interpretation of dryness, puffiness, and oiliness requires consideration of additional factors such as age, health status, lifestyle, and current cosmetic products. For a complete and reliable assessment, consultation with a qualified cosmetologist or dermatologist is recommended.
The Skin Structure section provides information on skin architecture, functions, and characteristics based on the analysis of three criteria:
Skin Permeability, Hyaluronic Acid and Collagen Deficiency
Skin Permeability
Reflects the skin’s ability to allow transdermal absorption of cosmetic and therapeutic products, as well as xenobiotics, pharmaceuticals, household chemicals, and allergens.
- High index (red zone) suggests impaired or weakened skin barrier — possibly due to aging, UV exposure, pollution, inappropriate care, or skin diseases. This increases the risk of uncontrolled absorption, irritation, allergic reactions, and other adverse effects.
- Low index (yellow zone) indicates strong barrier function. In this case, penetration of active cosmetic ingredients is reduced, decreasing their effectiveness. Some users may experience heaviness or a film-like sensation after applying products. Considering permeability helps choose suitable formulations and delivery methods for active ingredients.
Hyaluronic Acid
Indirectly reflects tissue hydration and systemic hyaluronic acid levels.
Low values indicate a potential deficiency associated with aging, UV exposure, environmental pollution, or individual factors.
Replenishment can be achieved through supplements, topical products, or cosmetic procedures.
Collagen
Evaluates the condition of the skin’s collagen framework.
A high index suggests good hydration and robust collagen content, commonly seen in younger individuals.
A low index points to reduced elasticity, wrinkle formation, dryness, sagging, and signs of collagen degradation due to aging or environmental stress.
The skin’s regenerative capacity is a key indicator of how quickly and effectively the skin can restore itself after damage. It plays a crucial role in assessing functional condition and predicting how the skin will respond to cosmetic procedures and external influences.
A high index indicates strong self-repair abilities; a low index reflects slower regeneration and increased vulnerability.
The Fibroblast Activity diagram visualizes the functional activity of fibroblasts — the cells responsible for producing collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid, the main components that determine firmness, elasticity, and hydration.
- High levels (red zone) — excessive quantity/function
- Optimal levels (green zone) — healthy regenerative capacity
- Low levels (yellow zone) — reduced fibroblast function, indicating functional immune deficiency
The key indicator of this section is the Skin Microbiome Index, which reflects the balance between normobionts and pathobionts.
- Normobionts — beneficial microorganisms that support immunity, protect against pathogens, and participate in metabolic processes.
- Pathobionts — conditionally pathogenic microorganisms that may trigger inflammation under certain conditions.
The analysis allows specialists to detect microbiome imbalance, including excessive pathobiont growth requiring eradication programs. Causes may include pH disruption, improper care, stress, gut dysbiosis, internal diseases, etc.
Based on the results, the cosmetologist can design an individualized care program aimed at restoring a healthy skin microbiome.
The diagram simultaneously evaluates “Inflammation” and “Intoxication” levels. Comparing these parameters helps determine whether skin issues stem from active inflammation or systemic intoxication, guiding a tailored correction strategy that may include topical treatments as well as gut microbiota normalization, detoxification, and inflammation reduction.
