Hydration Flat Probe
When you need to know about water binding capacity
Measure hydration - ideal for normal skin
Well hydrated skin looks younger and healthier, and it improves the barrier of the skin. Therefore, skin professionals often include this parameter in their assessment of skin.
The Hydration Flat Probe is used for measuring the water binding capacity of the outermost layer of the skin. It can be used as a stand-alone measurement or before and after a skin hydration treatment.
This is our traditional probe design, and it is useful for many skin measurements where hair is not present.
For scalp applications and measurements in hairy areas, we recommend our Hydration Pin Probe.
Measure water binding capacity with spring-loaded action
The hydration probe provides an instant and precise assessment of the water binding capacity in the stratum corneum.
Our spring-loaded design triggers the measurement when a certain pressure is applied. This secures fast and precise measurement cycles.
The hydration software allows for performing up to eight sequential measurements, and the average value is calculated.
The Hydration Flat Probe is available for both the DermaLab Combo and the DermaLab Single.
