How Does the Prysm iO Scan Work?

The Prysm iO system works by observing how light interacts with the skin using hyperspectral

optical sensing. By analyzing absorption patterns across multiple wavelengths, the technology

identifies signals associated with skin carotenoid levels as part of a broader wellness assessment.

These absorption patterns are evaluated using machine-learning calibration informed by established spectral and Raman-based research. Rather than producing a medical diagnosis, the Prysm iO scan generates a carotenoid score intended to reflect antioxidant-related patterns that can be

observed over time.

The scan itself is quick, noninvasive, and does not require needles, samples, or laboratory testing. Because it is designed to be comfortable and repeatable, many people use the Prysm iO scan to track wellness trends as part of an ongoing routine.

Because carotenoid levels can be influenced by lifestyle factors such as diet, environmental exposure, and stress, individual results may vary. For this reason, Prysm iO scan results are most meaningful when viewed as trend-based insights rather than absolute values or clinical measurements.
