Long-Term Use Case Studies

We demonstrate the skin’s remarkable capacity to recover volume and strength with two case studies:  

  • Female, 56 years of age, applied active face cream 1x per day for 2.5 years (ongoing) to both sides of face.

  • Male, 54 years of age, applied active face cream 2x per day for 3 years (ongoing) to right side of face only.

Methods 

Photos are taken using a 3D camera that generates its own light.

  • Once captured, the images can be rotated for viewing from different vantage points.

  • The lighting can be adjusted digitally in both direction (e.g., side, overhead) and intensity.

  • Each set of before/after photos has identical lighting settings and vantage points.

  • The images can also be shown in multiple modes.

  • In natural mode, elevated areas appear lighter and depressed areas appear darker.

  • In depth topology mode, indentations are depicted in gradations from purple (deepest) to blue, green, and yellow (shallowest). Areas that are not depressed appear in white.

  • In elevation topology mode, elevations are depicted in gradations from yellow (lowest elevation) to green, light red and dark red (highest). Areas that are not elevated appear in white.

Note:  Viewed from above, enhanced volume of the cheekbone (lighter) creates a shadow pool in the mid-cheek on the nose-side. Also, note the stronger mouth area.
