Smart overview of the Invention

A skincare device incorporates a spectral sensor designed to detect skin characteristics at frequencies outside the visible spectrum. This sensor works in conjunction with a controller that identifies metabolic constituents of the skin based on the sensed characteristics. The controller also determines associated skin features and directs the device to perform specific actions tailored to these features, enhancing personalized skincare.

Improving Skin Assessment

The device addresses common challenges faced by users when assessing their own skin conditions without expert guidance. Many individuals struggle to accurately identify their skincare needs, leading to ineffective or inappropriate treatments. By utilizing both metabolic data and topological information, the device provides a reliable means of evaluating skin health, allowing for better-targeted cosmetic interventions.

Functionality and Features

The spectral sensor can analyze various reflectance characteristics of the skin, which are associated with different metabolic constituents such as collagen and melanin. These insights help in identifying specific skin features like wrinkles and pores. The device's controller may employ machine learning techniques to enhance its accuracy in determining these features, making it capable of processing data locally for quick assessments.

Personalized Treatment Actions

Upon identifying skin features, the device can adjust its settings or generate alerts to guide users in their skincare routines. It may also include a light source for phototherapeutic treatments, allowing it to actively address detected skin conditions. Overall, this innovative approach empowers users with tailored skincare solutions, improving their overall skin health effectively and conveniently.
