What we track

Metrics that matter for understanding your skin's progress.

Skin Age

An estimate of how old your skin appears. Track whether it's trending younger over time.

Texture & Clarity

Visible smoothness and clarity. Improving texture is often the first sign of progress.

Pores & Concerns

Track visible pore appearance and specific concerns like acne tendency or redness.

Why weekly tracking works

Daily checking creates noise. Weekly tracking reveals real trends.

Consistent comparisons

Same lighting, same distance, same time of week. Consistency removes variables so you can see actual changes.

  • Guided scan process for consistency
  • Side-by-side week-over-week views
  • Trend lines over months
Consistent skin scanning with guided process

Patience with proof

Skincare results take time. Weekly tracking helps you stay patient because you can see small improvements adding up.

  • 4-week, 8-week, 12-week milestones
  • See what changed when you changed products
  • Know when to adjust vs. keep going

Common questions

Progress tracking, explained.

How often should I scan my skin?
Weekly is ideal. Skin changes take time, and daily scanning creates noise. Weekly scans in similar lighting give the most meaningful comparisons.
What is skin age?
Skin age is an estimate of how old your skin appears based on texture, pores, and tone. It's not medical — it's a benchmark to track whether your routine is improving things.
How long until I see results?
Visible changes take 4-12 weeks. Hydration improves in 1-2 weeks. Texture and pores take 4-6 weeks. Pigmentation changes take 8-12 weeks. Weekly tracking helps you stay patient.
Can I see before and after photos?
Yes. The app stores your weekly scans and lets you compare any two dates side by side. Great for seeing 4-week or 8-week transformations.
What lighting is best for progress photos?
Natural daylight near a window is best. Face the light source directly, avoid harsh overhead lighting, and scan at the same time each week for consistent comparisons.
