See Your Skin More Clearly With Advanced 3D Imaging
What you see in the mirror does not always tell the complete story of your skin. Concerns involving texture, pigmentation, redness, pores, wrinkles, and facial structure can benefit from a closer, more objective look before deciding which skincare or aesthetic treatments make sense.
At New You Aesthetics & Wellness, Aura Skin Analysis provides detailed 3D imaging of the face and neck to give you and your provider a clearer understanding of your skin and facial features. Rather than relying solely on visual observation, the technology adds measurable information that can support a more personalized consultation and treatment plan.
What Is Aura Skin Analysis?
Aura is an advanced 3D facial imaging and skin analysis system developed by Aura Reality. With a single capture, the system creates a photorealistic 3D digital representation of the face and neck that can be viewed and analyzed during an aesthetic consultation.
The technology can assess several visible characteristics of the skin while also providing information about facial proportions and structure. This gives your provider additional information to consider when discussing your concerns, establishing a baseline, and creating recommendations tailored to your goals.
How Does the Aura Skin Analysis Work?
Aura uses multiple cameras and specialized lighting to capture the face and neck and generate a detailed 3D image. The system’s software then provides skin analysis and facial measurements that can be reviewed with your provider.
The actual image capture takes less than a second, according to Aura, while the complete capture process can be completed in under a minute. Your consultation takes longer because the value of the scan comes from reviewing the information and discussing what it may mean for your skincare or aesthetic plan.
What Does the Aura Skin Analysis Evaluate?
Aura provides a more detailed look at both skin characteristics and facial structure. Rather than focusing on a single concern, the system can provide multiple forms of information from the same imaging session.
Aura can analyze:
- Wrinkles: Identifies and scores visible wrinkles and fine lines.
- Pores: Provides a closer assessment of visible pores across the analyzed skin.
- Brown Spots: Evaluates areas associated with pigmentation, including visible signs of sun damage and hyperpigmentation.
- Red Areas: Identifies areas of visible redness and vascular irregularity.
- Skin Texture: Evaluates irregularities in the surface appearance of the skin.
- Facial Proportions: Measures angles, distances, and proportions of facial structures.
- Volume Changes: Allows volumetric differences to be evaluated and compared over time.
- Face and Neck: Aura’s imaging and analysis capabilities extend across both the face and neck.
What Are the Benefits of Aura Skin Analysis?
A detailed skin analysis can help take some of the guesswork out of deciding where to begin. Instead of selecting treatments based only on what appears most noticeable in the mirror, Aura provides visual and quantitative information that can support a more informed conversation with your provider.
Potential benefits include:
- Creates a detailed 3D representation of the face and neck
- Evaluates multiple skin characteristics in one analysis
- Provides objective information to support personalized recommendations
- Establishes a visual baseline before treatment
- Helps identify concerns that may be difficult to evaluate through ordinary observation alone
- Allows facial measurements and proportions to be reviewed
- Can compare imaging over time
- Helps patients better understand what their provider is seeing during consultation
Who Is a Candidate for Aura Skin Analysis?
Aura Skin Analysis may be useful for adults who want a better understanding of their skin before beginning or updating an aesthetic or skincare plan. You do not need to have a single major concern to benefit from imaging. It can also be useful when you are unsure which areas should be prioritized.
Because Aura is an imaging and consultation technology rather than a treatment itself, it does not require injections, lasers, or other procedures to perform the analysis. Your results can then help guide a conversation about which options, if any, align with your concerns and goals.
What to Expect During an Aura Skin Analysis
For the clearest assessment, Aura recommends analyzing clean skin and keeping the hair pulled away from the face. The neck should also be visible when that area is being included in the capture.
Once positioned, the system captures the imaging needed to create your 3D representation. Your provider can then review the findings with you, including relevant skin characteristics and facial measurements, and use those insights to make the consultation more visual and personalized.
Is There Any Downtime After an Aura Skin Analysis?
No traditional downtime is associated with Aura Skin Analysis because the system captures images rather than treating or altering the skin. There are no injections, incisions, lasers, or other treatment-related recovery requirements involved in completing the scan itself.
If you choose to receive an aesthetic or skincare treatment separately, any downtime will depend on that particular service. The Aura analysis itself can simply serve as a starting point for discussing those options.
How Can Aura Help Personalize Your Treatment Plan?
Two people who describe the same concern may have very different skin characteristics or facial anatomy. Aura gives your provider another layer of information to consider alongside your consultation, goals, medical history when relevant, and in-person assessment.
That fits naturally with New You’s One Size Fits None approach. Instead of beginning with a predetermined treatment, the goal is to better understand what you are seeing, what may be contributing to it, and which options make the most sense for you.
Can Aura Track Changes Over Time?
Yes. One of Aura’s capabilities is before-and-after visualization, allowing 3D captures to be compared over time. The platform can compare skin information as well as changes involving facial volume and lifting vectors when applicable.
This can provide a more consistent visual reference than relying on memory alone. However, imaging should be used as one part of evaluating progress rather than as a guarantee that a particular treatment will produce a specific result.
Aura Skin Analysis vs. a Traditional Skin Consultation
A traditional consultation and Aura imaging are not competing approaches. Aura adds objective imaging and visualization to the professional assessment and conversation that already take place during a consultation.
The most useful approach combines technology with professional interpretation rather than relying on the scan alone.
What Can Be Recommended After an Aura Skin Analysis?
Aura does not automatically determine which treatment you should receive. Instead, its findings can help your provider have a more informed discussion with you about your skin and priorities.
Depending on what your assessment shows and what you want to accomplish, recommendations may involve professional skincare, aesthetic treatments, or a combination of approaches. New You also carries Hydrinity, Satur Skin, Skin Theory, the practice’s own skincare brand, and ColoreScience, allowing home skincare to be considered alongside appropriate in-office care when relevant.

Frequently Asked Questions About Aura Skin Analysis
How much does an Aura scanner cost?
If you are asking about an Aura Skin Analysis appointment at New You rather than purchasing the professional imaging system itself, consultation pricing can be confirmed directly with the practice. The Aura 3D Imaging System is professional technology used by aesthetic practices and is not an at-home skincare scanner.
What is Aura skin analysis?
Aura Skin Analysis uses advanced 3D imaging to create a detailed digital representation of the face and neck. The system can analyze skin characteristics such as wrinkles, pores, brown spots, red areas, and texture while also providing information about facial measurements and proportions.
What does the Aura scanner detect?
Aura can analyze wrinkles, pores, red areas, brown spots, and skin texture. It can also evaluate facial proportions, angles, distances, volume changes, and other structural information used during aesthetic consultations.
How long does an Aura Skin Analysis take?
Aura reports that the imaging capture itself takes less than a second and that the capture process can be completed in under a minute. A complete consultation takes longer because your provider needs time to review the findings with you and discuss appropriate recommendations.
Does an Aura Skin Analysis hurt?
No. Aura Skin Analysis is an imaging process and does not require needles, incisions, or energy-based treatment of the skin. You are positioned for the imaging capture, after which the resulting information can be reviewed with your provider.
Can Aura Skin Analysis track my results?
Aura includes before-and-after comparison capabilities that allow imaging from different points in time to be reviewed together. This can help provide a visual reference for changes throughout an aesthetic or skincare journey.
