With so many technologies available, the question is rarely 'which is best?' but 'which is right for this client, today?' A simple framework helps.
Start with the goal
Radiance and a fresh look, firmer-looking skin, a more even tone, or contour and definition — the client's goal points to a family of technologies before any single device.
Consider skin, area and downtime
- Skin type and sensitivity shape which approaches are suitable
- Face, body or scalp narrows the options quickly
- Tolerance for any social downtime is often the deciding factor
Think in protocols, not products
The strongest results usually come from combining technologies over a planned course — which is exactly why DermaViva is designed as a coordinated suite rather than a set of unrelated machines.
A professional assessment remains essential: this framework guides the conversation, it does not replace it.
