For skincare professionals
Clients describe their skin in whatever words they have. That makes it hard to know whether anything actually changed between visits. lumino.skin gives you a standardized, trackable read your clients can run themselves, for free, before they sit down.
“It looks better than last time” is not a measurement. Even photos taken on different days in different rooms are hard to compare, because the lighting changes more than the skin does. Without a consistent baseline, progress becomes a matter of opinion — and that makes it harder to justify a treatment plan or a home-care routine on anything but trust.
They open lumino.skin on their own phone and upload one selfie. It takes under a minute, nothing to install, and no account to create. You are not asking a client to sign up for software to sit in your chair.
Instead of “my skin feels oily but also dry,” you get a consistent read across 47 biomarkers — texture, tone, pore visibility, hydration, and barrier signals. The same categories, measured the same way, every visit.
The client can download their result as a PDF and bring it in, or show it on their phone. It becomes a shared starting point for the consultation rather than a memory of how their skin felt last month.
When a client scans again, lumino.skin compares the new result to their previous one and shows what moved. That is the part that is genuinely hard to do by eye — and it is free.
Progress comparisons are calculated against the client's own previous scan, so improvement is visible rather than asserted. Useful when a client is deciding whether to continue a treatment plan.
Every client is described in the same categories, so consultations start from a comparable baseline instead of whatever vocabulary each person happens to use.
It runs in the browser on the phone the client already owns. There is no scanner to buy, nothing to deploy, and no app for your client to download.
The downloadable PDF gives the consultation a tangible takeaway and gives you a record the client can revisit before their next visit.
We would rather be precise about this than oversell it. lumino.skin is a consumer cosmetic analysis tool, and it is honest about its limits.
If you need clinical imaging, lesion triage, or a platform you can license and rebrand, you need a professional or clinical vendor — see our comparison of AI skin analysis tools for the categories we do not cover. If you want a deployment built around your own consultation workflow — branded to your business, with client-facing reporting and service-menu mapping — see our brand and business solutions.
Is lumino.skin free for estheticians to use with clients?
Yes. It is free and browser-based. There is no per-seat fee and no software to install. Clients run their own analysis on their own device. It is the consumer tool, so it has no client records or team accounts — for a branded or custom-built deployment, see our brand and business solutions.
Is there a professional version for salons and clinics?
We build customised deployments on our analysis technology for salons, clinics, and brands — including white-label builds and service-menu integration, so client results map to the treatments you sell. That is scoped per business rather than sold as an off-the-shelf subscription. See AI skin analysis for brands and businesses for the details.
Can I use lumino.skin as a professional skin analysis tool in my salon?
You can use it as a shared, standardized reference point in a consultation, and clients can download the PDF report to bring in. It is a consumer cosmetic analysis tool, so treat it as a supplementary input alongside your own professional assessment — not as a clinical instrument or a replacement for the tools you already use.
How does the progress tracking work?
When a client runs a new analysis, lumino.skin compares the new result against their previous scan and shows what changed across the measured metrics. This makes it easier to demonstrate real change over a treatment plan rather than relying on memory or inconsistent lighting in photos.
Does lumino.skin diagnose skin conditions?
No. It is informational cosmetic skin analysis and does not diagnose medical conditions. If a client has a changing mole, a persistent rash, or another concern that could be medical, they should see a dermatologist.
Do clients need to create an account?
No. There is no sign-up and no app download. A client takes a selfie and receives results in the browser. An email address is only needed if they want their report emailed or want to receive reminders.
