What is SAM?
• A sophisticated, portable tool that ingeniously combines black-light blue lighting with magnification for analyzing skin conditions.
• SAM causes the skin to resemble a photo negative with various conditions of the skin illuminating in specific, recognizable colors.
• A trained Skin Care Consultant can then analyze the skin and recommend product solutions.
Note: SAM should not be used for diagnosis or treatment of any medical condition. A licensed physician should be consulted for diagnosis and treatment of any and all medical conditions. The value of SAM is in highlighting and making recognizable to the trained consultant skin conditions that respond positively to ARTISTRY skin care products.
What does SAM do?
• SAM enables the Skin Care Consultant to fully analyze the surface and deeper layers of the epidermis in order to determine proper treatment of various skin conditions/problems.
• SAM aids in the discovery of conditions that are not visible to the naked eye such as blemishes, congestion under the skin, dehydration, and degeneration of the skin.Conditions that are visible to the naked eye on light skins are often harder to see or missed altogether on darker skins.
• Through a magnifying mirror, SAM also enables the customer to see his or her skin conditions/problems and the progress of improvement with the help of proper skin care product use.
