Key Skin Traits

Analyze what your microbiome reveals about your skin’s biological age, hydration levels, antioxidant capacity, sensitivity, and other functional characteristics that influence overall skin health.

Personalized Recommendations

Receive customized product, ingredient, dietary, and lifestyle recommendations informed by your unique microbiome profile to help optimize and maintain your skin’s health.

How does qPCR work?

Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (qPCR), or real-time PCR, is a lab technique that amplifies and measures DNA simultaneously. Using fluorescent dyes or probes, qPCR tracks DNA as it’s copied, allowing precise quantification in real-time. It’s a fast, accurate method for gene analysis, pathogen detection, and genetic assessment.
