What Is Aura 3D Facial Imaging?
The Aura 3D Imaging System is an award-winning diagnostic device powered by advanced Hexagon sensor technology. In a single scan taking less than 60 seconds, it captures a highly detailed, photo-realistic digital twin of your face and neck, providing your provider with objective data that goes far beyond what a standard visual examination can reveal.
While a traditional assessment only shows what is happening on the surface of the skin, the Aura system performs a comprehensive analysis of the six pillars of skin aging: texture, tone, elasticity, hydration, pigmentation, and vascular changes. The device detects early signs of sun damage, subclinical pigmentation, and fine lines long before they become visible to the naked eye.
At Allen Medical Aesthetics, we use the Aura system during every aesthetic consultation to establish a shared visual language between you and your provider. Together, you can review your skin scoring, perform volume difference assessments, and even simulate potential treatment outcomes before committing to a plan.
As you progress through your treatment plan, whether utilizing advanced injectables, laser therapies, or medical-grade skincare, we use standardized before-and-after imaging to objectively measure your results and refine your protocol over time.
How the Aura 3D Imaging Process Works

3D Facial Scan
The Aura device captures a complete 3D scan of your face and neck in under 60 seconds. The process is painless and requires no contact with the skin.
Skin Analysis Review
Your provider reviews the six-pillar analysis with you on screen, identifying areas of concern and scoring each metric. This creates a shared visual language for your treatment discussion.
Treatment Planning
Based on the objective data from your scan, your provider develops a personalized treatment plan. Volume assessments and outcome simulations help you visualize what to expect.
Progress Monitoring
At follow-up appointments, repeat scans are compared against your baseline to objectively measure improvement and adjust your treatment protocol as needed.

All scan data is stored securely and used as a baseline for future comparisons. As you progress through treatments, repeat scans provide objective evidence of improvement that goes beyond subjective observation.
Baseline 3D scan is captured and the six-pillar analysis is reviewed with your provider. Treatment recommendations are developed based on objective data.
As you begin treatments, the Aura data guides your provider in prioritizing which concerns to address first for maximum impact.
Repeat scans at follow-up appointments are compared against your baseline. Measurable improvements in texture, tone, pigmentation, and volume are documented.
Long-term tracking allows your provider to refine your treatment protocol over time, adjusting recommendations based on how your skin responds.
Common Questions About Aura 3D Facial Imaging
Is the Aura 3D scan included with my consultation?
Yes. The Aura 3D facial imaging scan is a standard part of every aesthetic consultation at Allen Medical Aesthetics. There is no additional charge for the scan itself.
How long does the Aura 3D scan take?
The scan itself takes under 60 seconds. Your provider will then spend additional time reviewing the analysis with you and discussing treatment options during your consultation.
Is the scan uncomfortable?
Not at all. The Aura 3D scan is completely contactless and painless. The device captures your facial data using advanced sensor technology without touching your skin.
What do the six pillars of skin aging mean?
The six pillars are texture (surface smoothness), tone (color uniformity), elasticity (firmness and bounce), hydration (moisture levels), pigmentation (dark spots and discoloration), and vascular changes (redness and visible blood vessels). Together, they provide a comprehensive picture of your skin health.
Can the Aura system detect problems I cannot see yet?
Yes. One of the most valuable features of the Aura system is its ability to detect subclinical changes, including early sun damage, developing pigmentation, and fine lines that are not yet visible to the naked eye. This enables proactive treatment before these concerns become more difficult to address.
How is Aura different from regular before-and-after photos?
Standard photos vary based on lighting, angle, and camera settings, making true comparisons unreliable. The Aura system captures standardized 3D scans under controlled conditions, providing measurable, objective data that accurately tracks changes over time.
