Seeing Is Believing: Why You Need to Upgrade Your Before-and-After Pictures with GLIMPSE

The GLIMPSE Professional Skin Evaluator has emerged as a game-changing innovation in the field of LED skin analysis. With its unique features and cutting-edge capabilities, GLIMPSE is reshaping the landscape of skincare and patient consultations and setting new standards for before-and-after imaging.

GLIMPSE Welcomes a Suite of Unique Features 

GLIMPSE, proudly introduced by Cartessa Aesthetics, is the world's first LED skin analyzer of its type, and stands out by delivering high-resolution images and in-depth analyses within seconds, allowing practitioners to capture consistent before-and-after treatment images effortlessly.  

Four LED Light Sources

GLIMPSE's superiority lies in its unique design, incorporating four LED light sources:  Normal, Specular, Polarized, and Ultraviolet. These sources provide in-depth measurements for ten top skin concerns, including pores, melanin, skin tone, and wrinkles among others. The extended LED lamp life offers 20 million captures compared to the 3,000 from traditional lamps, demonstrating GLIMPSE's durability and efficiency.

Comprehensive Overlay & Split-Screen

GLIMPSE's image overlay and split-screen capabilities with a slider function simplify the comparison of overall skin changes and differences by specific skin concerns. The ability to access patient files from previous sessions enhances the ability to track and showcase treatment results over time.

14 Analysis Modes

Offering fourteen analysis modes, GLIMPSE provides a comprehensive understanding of the skin. With summary views and deep dives into specific skin concerns, practitioners have many options to tailor consultations according to individual patient needs.

3-D Viewer

The 3-D viewer adds another dimension to the analysis process, offering a holistic perspective of the skin, presenting quantitative data to patients to review, and fostering a deeper understanding of their skin's progress over time.

AI Prediction Mode

GLIMPSE's unique AI predictive feature simulates the progression of the skin over time. This mode enables practitioners to show patients how pigment, wrinkles, and hidden imperfections might evolve without intervention, making it a powerful marketing tool during consultations and treatment plan discussions.

How GLIMPSE Can Make a Difference in Your Practice

The impact of GLIMPSE on patient satisfaction and business growth has been highlighted by renowned aesthetic expert Cristina Morin, MSN, APN, FNP-C of Enriched Aesthetics, during a recent webinar.

She emphasized GLIMPSE's transformative impact on her practice, particularly in overcoming challenges associated with traditional one-dimensional photo analysis. 

In her experience, patients really weren’t seeing the results of the conventional style of analysis. 

“When we adopted GLIMPSE into our practice, it became this three-dimensional analysis that makes the results of the before-and-after photos undeniably more impressive,” said Morin. 

She was able to use GLIMPSE to eliminate a lot of skin analysis challenges including inconsistent lighting or positioning, a dedicated photo space, and minimizing human error. 

Morin emphasized using the GLIMPSE tool to normalize the skin analysis process by making it as convenient as possible while using it to build personalized treatment plans and comprehensive consultations for a more holistic approach to skincare. 

She said her patients were typically excited to see quantitative measurements with their treatment consultation to help them visualize their skin’s progress, and what they’d like to improve going forward. 

“GLIMPSE delivers tangible data users can walk away with,” Morin said. This data-driven approach to skincare consultations has boosted Morin’s sales conversions, even among more cost-conscious cosmetic consumers. 

“It has definitely helped with our marketing,” added Morin. “With the skin analysis, I can guarantee you’ll get results and [patients will find] that others will love the way they look based on them moving forward with certain treatments or goals.”

For those striving to stay at the forefront of aesthetic technology, GLIMPSE is undeniably a must-have addition to help highlight the effectiveness of your treatments. 

“We’re always talking about the importance of before-and-after photos, and how they are a number one sales tool,” said Kim Pezzetti, Director of Practice Development at Cartessa Aesthetics.

“Pulling in something like a GLIMPSE allows you to really elevate that sales process with your patients, [and] expand your market demographic.”
