How Does the Scanner Work?

The Pharmanex BioPhotonic Scanner is the world’s first measuring tool that gives you a Skin Carotenoid Score (SCS)—immediate evidence of carotenoid antioxidant activity in your body. By placing the palm of your hand in front of the scanner’s safe, low-energy blue light, within seconds you will obtain a reading of the carotenoid antioxidant levels in your skin—your Skin Carotenoid Scores (SCS)—which has been scientifically correlated to overall antioxidant status.

​​​​​​​The Scanner measures carotenoid levels in human tissue at the skin surface using optical signals. These signals identify the unique molecular structure of carotenoids, allowing their measurement without interference by other molecular substances and providing the person being measured with their own SCS.

Why Should I Be Scanned?

The scanner measures the level of carotenoid antioxidants in your skin and generates a Skin Carotenoid Score, which can provide insight into your overall antioxidant health. This score offers a simple, non-invasive way to assess your body's antioxidant status.

Knowing your score can help you understand your current levels and encourage healthier choices to improve them. Higher antioxidant levels may support eye health and may help reduce the risk of macular degeneration progression and related vision loss.
