Equipment

Skin Functional Laboratory is equipped with bioengineering devices mainly manufactured by Courage+Khazaka electronic GmbH, Cologne, Germany.

The following skin functions can be determined by non-invasive and objective methods:

Ø Skin elasticity - Cutometer

Ø Skin viscoelasticity – Reviscometer

Ø Skin smoothness - Frictiometer

Ø Epidermal hydration - Corneometer

Ø Skin color (erythema and melanin) - Mexameter

Ø Skin surface lipids – Sebumeter, Visioscan + Sebufix + SELS

Ø Skin gloss – Glossymeter

Ø Skin desquamation (dryness) - Visioscan + Corneofix + SELS

Ø Skin surface (relief) – Visioscan + SELS; color Visioscope

Ø Skin bacterial colonization – Visiopor

Ø Facial skin (color, pores, wrinkles) – Visio Face + CSI software

Ø Facial skin (color, pores, wrinkles) – Coscam camera + SkinSys software

Ø Skin microcirculation (capillaroscopy) – Dino Lite nailscope, Kowa microcirculation scope

Ø Dermoscopy and onychoscopy - Dino Lite digital microscope

Ø Trichoscopy – Dino Lite digital microscope, Coscam camera + HairSys software
