Alma IQ Skin Analysis
Seeing What the Eye Cannot
Your integrative aesthetics consultation begins with the AlmaIQ scan. It is an advanced skin imaging and analysis system. Using 360 degree light technology across ten distinct light modes, it captures high resolution images of multiple layers of the skin in seconds, then interprets them to produce a detailed report.
What surfaces is information a visual exam alone cannot give you: pigmentation forming below the surface, vascular activity and redness, texture and pore data, wrinkle depth, and accumulated sun damage that has not yet become visible.
Skin changes usually begin long before they show up in the mirror. Sun damage, uneven pigment, and early signs of aging often develop quietly beneath the surface, and by the time they become visible they can take longer to address.
By identifying those changes early, Alma IQ gives Dr. Forbes an objective starting point for your care at Forbes Integrative Medicine in Phoenix. It takes much of the guesswork out of choosing a treatment and helps make sure the approach fits what your skin actually needs rather than what a single visible concern might suggest.

How It Shapes Your Plan
The scan takes only a few minutes and is completely painless. You sit in front of the imaging unit while it captures the face, and it can also image the neck, decolletage, and other areas of the body.
Your provider then reviews the results with you on screen, so you see exactly what she sees. That shared picture is what your treatment plan is built from, whether that means laser, microneedling, or a change to your home skincare. Repeat scans at intervals let you measure whether the plan is working rather than guessing.
Your results might point toward ClearLift for tone and fine lines, ClearSkin for acne and scarring, VascuPen for visible vessels, or microneedling with acupuncture for texture and overall skin health. In some cases the most useful change is simply a better daily routine and more consistent sun protection.
Because everything is documented, you have a clear baseline to look back on. Follow up scans show how your skin has changed over time, which makes it easier to see progress, decide when to continue or pause treatment, and plan maintenance that fits your goals. There is no downtime, and the scan is a natural first step before any aesthetic treatment so your plan starts from accurate information.
Alma IQ replaces guesswork with measured data at the start of your treatment plan.
