Every transformation at Blush Aesthetics starts with data. Our signature customized care begins with a VISIA skin analysis in Columbus or other clinical insights that prioritize your skin’s unique needs.
Whatever concerns you have or are developing, VISIA provides a deeper look to help catch and treat aesthetic changes early.
At Blush Aesthetics, we choose VISIA for its clinical precision. Unlike standard skin analysis devices, VISIA utilizes advanced simulation technology and a global database to objectively track and compare your skin’s progress over time.
It doesn’t just identify skin concerns; it ranks them against the world’s largest skin feature database to show how your skin is performing for your age. Plus, its AI-powered technology creates 3D models of the skin that help our experts project the next years of aging or reveal the effects of Botox or dermal fillers.
While VISIA doesn’t directly address the aesthetic concerns it identifies, it makes a great first step of the rejuvenation process at Blush. Every patient’s skin and results are unique, and we invite you to explore our before-and-after gallery to see how our specialists have helped previous patients achieve healthier skin—all captured by VISIA.
VISIA tracks 8 markers of skin health. By isolating these specific “layers,” our experts move past general recommendations to customized treatments that address individual aesthetic concerns.
While a VISIA skin analysis helps our specialists identify potential skincare concerns, our recommendations consider many factors beyond the scan. Any next steps are ultimately a collaborative decision between you and your provider based on your scan results alongside your goals, skincare preferences, budget, and lifestyle.
What VISIA looks for: Brown or red marks—including freckles or acne scars
While VISIA performs a deeper analysis of specific brown and red areas too, it begins with a general sweep for “spots.” These can vary in size, shape, and visibility. Many form as a result of past acne that didn’t heal correctly, or from UV damage, which both cause lingering brown or red marks.
At Blush Aesthetics, we may recommend the following service to address these spots:
What VISIA looks for: Fine lines, creases, and deeper wrinkles
Fine lines and wrinkles are almost always associated with declining collagen production. During your skin’s prime—typically in your 20s and early 30s—your body produces lots of collagen and elastin, the proteins that provide strength and elasticity. As we age, production slows. When existing collagen fibers break down faster than they get replaced, visible lines and wrinkles form.
At Blush Aesthetics, we may recommend the following services to address wrinkles:
What VISIA looks for: Bumps or dips on the skin’s surface
Our experts often associate rough skin texture with decreased collagen production, since declining collagen proteins mean that skin loses its strength and structure.
However, some patients experience rough skin due to dehydration and a lack of hyaluronic acid (which keeps skin smooth and flexible), or as a result of skin buildup. Skin might appear “dull,” lacking luminosity or “glow.”
At Blush Aesthetics, we may recommend the following service to address uneven skin texture:
What VISIA looks for: Enlarged pores, congestion
A VISIA skin analysis in Columbus can distinguish between spots and enlarged pores. While spots vary in size, shape, and color, open pores are often dark and more circular. This can create the appearance of texture across the skin, a contrast to the “poreless” or glassy finish some patients prefer.
At Blush Aesthetics, we may recommend the following services to address enlarged or congested pores:
What VISIA looks for: Melanin, hyperpigmentation, pigment clusters under the skin’s surface
The VISIA’s most popular feature scans for melanin, or pigmentation underneath the skin that hasn’t yet surfaced. These spots are sun damage caused by UV radiation. UV rays cause the body to activate the melanin-producing cells in the skin as a form of sun protection, leading to the formation of dark spots that gradually become visible.
While some brown marks may result from acne or acne scarring, deeper-set pigment may indicate melasma, age spots, or hormonal hyperpigmentation. If we believe your brown spots are the result of a medical condition, we can refer you to our partnered dermatologists.
At Blush Aesthetics, we may recommend the following services to address UV and brown spots:
What VISIA looks for: Vascular conditions and inflammation
A VISIA skin analysis in Columbus separates the skin’s natural redness from the redness of hemoglobin, the cells that give blood its signature color. This allows our experts to identify any visible vascular concerns, such as broken capillaries, inflammation, or symptoms of rosacea, which can lead to chronic skin conditions if left unaddressed.
If these red areas are not the symptom of a medical skin condition, we may recommend the following services:
What VISIA looks for: Acne-causing bacteria and congested pores
Using UV fluorescence, VISIA highlights bacteria trapped in the pores (porphyrins), which often cause acne flare-ups or breakouts. This highlights acne-prone areas of the skin, allowing our experts to target treatments and skincare to deter future breakouts.
At Blush Aesthetics, we may recommend the following services to address porphyrins:
